I'm new to collecting knives and decided to start with a niche I find fun and interesting... USA-made knifes with a patriotic theme (harder to come by and find than I would have imagined)

I'm trying to collect some of each type... Autos, OTF, AOs and flippers and fixed, etc.

Here's some of my modest collection. Having a ball and am also building a small display case for them to put up in my shop.
 
Welcome to the forum, friend. Pics are not showing though. Upload to a file hosting site, and the link here. Or if you get a paid membership (worth it!) it will open a few useful forum features for you including private messages, and uploading files directly.

I can upload pictures from my laptap pictures folder. I thought that started when BF was down for upgrades earlier this year.

That's because your paid membership level allows it. ;)

Mine does too and I still use a hosting site because I like the structure and I'm used to it. I went with Imgur, but ImgBB is also solid.
 
Oh ok, lol.
Imgur changed for me about 6mos ago. I don't know what happened, but it became more difficult saving, resizing, and downloading pictures.
 
Yes, welcome to the forums.

Plus, you can always look for aftermarket patriotic scales to add to a USA made knife. You just need a few torx bits to swap out the scales.

I use Imgur and it’s super easy.

I upload all my images to my account as “hidden” so the public can’t see it.

One the photo is uploaded to your account you click the profile button, click on the image, hard press it until the “Copy Post Link” button pops up then you click that button so your link gets copied to your clipboard.

Come back to the forums and press the little photo tool button in the chat, then press the link button that pops up after and paste you Imgur link in there and hit that insert button!

easy peasy

I'm sure there are plenty more that I missed. These are all limited editions and will be pretty hard to track down. Good luck mate!
