Looks like you're missing the non snap-on red skyline as well as the two fixed blade skylines.

And yes it is made by kryptoglow available on the bay.

Very cool, what two steel's is the damascus version made of?

Not 2 layers, it's alwys a bit more complex than that. 2 layers would be laminated steel.

(4) layers 5160, (3) layers 203E, (3) layers 52100, (3) layers 15N20 folded 5 times for 416 layer damascus

You and this guy need to have a Skyline collection showdown. http://www.knifethursday.com/skyline-choices/He seems to have swapped out blades to get some of those combos. Yours is all factory originals?

hahaha yeah, i have seen the guy here on the forums, his picture is my avatar pic too :) i have been meaning to get multiples of each skyline so i can do some blade swapping. a damascus skyline with red handles would make me a very happy knifebro.

YEAH!!!!! A special shout-out to CHESTER22 for hooking me up with the 1760DAM :) thanks bro!
 
Congrats man! The damascus is the hardest to get! (At least it was for me) I think it would be awesome to have some damascus swap outs. Can't wait for the forum special skyline!

True that! I had been looking for the damascus for QUITE some time, an elusive specimen indeed. The blue skyline will be epic (hopefully...why wouldnt it be though lol)
Did you ever get any info regarding the blade play when swapping the blades? I had tried swap the blades to make a satin blade coyote brown combo and it just didnt work...

I've been pretty lucky with my blade swaps. I had one with an overly tight lock up before I learned that you should keep the blade and the liner together. Other than that, no problems.
 
I had a chance to buy a damascus Skyline in pretty good shape at the last gun show. Unfortunately, the dude wanted more than what the BF Skyline is going for. Too rich for my blood.
 
That's a great group of Skylines!! Nice group and pics:thumbup:

Way back when, I won a giveaway here on the forums and got the very first Skyline off the production line. Still carry it from time to time. Great knife.

yeah, thats just the nature of the beast though... people want lots of money for nice things lol if i was in to knives when they were first released, i could have bought 4 of them for the price i paid for one now... its crazy.
