Kershaw Skyline list of models?

I've got one too...I'll try to get some pics up this weekend but that may get derailed by having to work. The 1760RD was one of my last to collect, but I was lucky enough to pick up one from StickToDrum (Thank you, bro...the knife community will miss you). They're hard to find, but not impossible. The problem is, they were released long before anyone knew the Skyline would become a "thing", so most of those out there are users. To further complicate the issue, lots of people will just post them as "Kershaw Skyline Red", not realizing it could be the 1760RD, the 1760RDSW or the 1760RDSO so you have to wade through a lot of bad info just to find the knife you're looking for. 1760RDSO are regularly available on the evil-auction-site for not much more than MSRP...the others, not so much.

Darthrya, if you've gotten the three blue Skylines, take a deep breathe. The hard work is done. The 1760RD will show up sooner or later, just don't count on it being new and not needing a little rehab. One thing I did to ease the agony of missing Skylines was to go custom for a while. Phillip Dobson makes some awesome G10 scales for Skylines and the evil-auction-site has custom stand-offs and a dude named Steelreborn who does some really cool custom acid treatments.

I promise to post all rumors of limited edition Skylines here to share with other fans (after, of course, I've secured my own). Will all of you do the same?

Now, someone just needs to pry that custom Camo Skyline loose from Nutnfancy, lol.
 
The funny thing is, I had the option in 2012 to pick up the S30V blue, and I passed. I got the RDSW instead. I loved that knife so much that I started collection. The only ones I'm missing now are the 3 blues and the RD. Right now, the evil auction site is the only one I can find the missing knives because they send me notices. Every other site I have to log in daily.

If I hear of any rumors, of course I'll share! I doubt I'll be one of the first since I'm new to the game and I don't have a leg in like many others.
 
I got my 1760BFC today courtesy of Shaggy. Very interesting, and a good surprise for me--the blade appears to be stonewash instead of satin. I had no idea, and I am sure glad it doesn't have the satin look.
 
Reviving this thread since the new translucent green handles came out. Not including the BladeHQ Flytanium scale editions since they are just custom versions of existing Skylines.

Let me know if I'm missing any others on the list!
 
Really wish the skyline had more scales available. I like the digital camo I've seen some places but it's so rare.
 
Here's my collection, nearly complete less the digicam and Ducks Unlimited

I've got the two Blade HQ jade G10 but they didn't make it into the picture...
Here are a few custom that's I've put together over the years...

Hackenslash,
Can you share some info on those slim and truly deep carry clips?
Thanks

Those clips come from Pop's Custom Clips. You can find the shop on Etsy. I've bought several from them over the years and always had good luck. That slim, deep carry clip is perfect on the Skyline.

I didn't realize these pictures were so crappy. I'll have to take some new ones and include the Jade models and few other customs I have.
 
Love the Damascus one. I'm working with High Figure Grips to make burl scales with a Damascus blade. I also see you have one of the rare 64 blue scales. I was fortunate to snag one myself!
