We have been buying more pocket knives than usual lately and here is where most of the money has gone. Trappers are my favorite and it has been fun expanding the herd a little.
The Remingtion is a mini from 1991. I have wanted a bullet knife ever since I bought my Remingtion 870 so when I got the chance to buy this one at a fair price I snatched it up.
The black delrin Boker was an impulse buy. One that I am happy I made. It is very well put together and is just an overall great knife. My first Boker, it probably won't be my last.
The sunset orange is a wharncliff that I bought second hand along with a mini finn. A mini trapper is really a good every day carry knife for me and I suspect this combonation of blades is only going to be better. Plus if I am carrying a mini wharncliff in my pocket I can easily justify having a full sized trapper on my belt. :D
I ran across the black pocket worn Case on e-bay and since I have been wanting a pocket worn trapper [and a guy can't have too many trappers] I decided to watch it. I was at work when it sold but it went fairly cheap so my wife Kelly a.k.a. Grateful's Girl bought it for me.
I was expecting the pocket worn trapper in the mail yesterday and it did arrive along with the full sized amber bone and the mini amber bone that I didn't know anything about. They were supposed to be a surprise/ present sometime in the future but since I was there when the boxes arrived and saw them Kelly went ahead and gave them to me. WOW!
Obviously I am a rich man in more ways than one tho none of them are reflected in my bank account. Happy collecting/hoarding and may the folksy be with you.

Thats a heck of a nice bullet knife, congrats.
The bone on the full size one looks great too.

Nice lookin' six-pack Grateful. :thumbup: I'm kinda partial to trappers myself.
 
nice collection.

i think that trappers just aren't for me, tried a couple of different makers and they just don't feel right. really a great pattern, and i want so hard to like them. just can't though...

its alright it just leaves more for you guys.

nice looking knives you have there.
 
The Boker is a nice knife. It has a different feel than the Case trappers have.
