My collection recently accelerated with some additional income, so this year wasn't too many, but the prices...oh god the prices.

In my defense, I also sold off a good portion of it to narrow down to the knives I would really use and get my grails.

In chronological order

Gerber

ZT 0560

Large 21 sebenza tanto micarta

Hinderer 3.5 xm 18 spanto ( Bronze anodized titanium scale, and all bronzed accessories)

Small sebenza with graphics and amber inlay


Started small this year, and am just climbing in price.
So from about $40 to $650. Then throw a $300 scale on it. (If the wife only knew)
" honey, look, thus was $25! I'd be crazy not to buy it. ! "
