I don't ever notice authors. I usually don't ever read that last column, but the opening line about knife collecting drew me in.

You're missing out. Most months (not this one), I'm laughing out loud at that crazy bastard.
 

reminds me of these:

Better PM me some details on how these fine tools can ride in my Jeep.

likely, you'll have to get someone to make them for you, as they have been out of production for many many many years.

those are just archive photos i've saved, never seen one in person. maker is Australian, seems to have ripped a few people off, and never produced much product... fell on hard times, debt, collectors, ninjas... name is Jensen Elite Blade. line is Evo. many of the knvies have chisel edges to boot.

seen a few people making similar things. wouldn't mind something like the bigger tool, all nice and shovel/diggy goodness...

Thanks for the info man! The big fella there reminds me of the spetznatz machete thing, except it looks full tang. Just so happens I know a guy who can fab me one up. He's on BF now too.

make several. improve the handles (use becker grips). tweak it, design is what i would call ... open ;. call them your own. send me some :)
 
Oh, tweaks will be made! And yeah the Temagami and the WSK thing is on my want list too.
 
I don't know why, but tonight I suddenly got the urge for some cold steel products. I have no clue why though.
 
Love the new sig Murph

i'm not even an "old one" and yet, i like that sig. had to tell "a kid" to just shut up a while ago. seriously. dude:

"look, i don't mean to be mean, but i've got 30 years on you. that's 30 Summers, Winters, Springs, and Falls, do you realize that even half that many, i could easily master ANYTHING you hold dear? have used it up, spit it out, and invented 9 more things? i have made mistakes, and done more than you possibly could already, just by virtue of being much more than twice your age. no, really, you just don't have enough data to back up that position. if i honestly felt you had something, i'd listen, another fault of the 'old', but you're just spouting shit you heard on the tubes, or your friends told you. i heard the same shit in high-school, and it was wrong then, and you should be embarrassed you're wrong now, because you could LOOK IT UP, RIGHT NOW, on your phone, but you're trying to school someone that's DONE THAT, so many times, been there, got the t-shirt, sold it on ebay, made $5000, and no, really, just, SHUT UP. don't make me change your diaper. also, bzzzt! knock it off :>"

(also, lady gaga is derivative of madonna, yeah, i know, look it up)

That's funny because, look, i don't mean to be mean, but i've got 30 years on you. that's 30 Summers, Winters, Springs, and Falls, do you realize that even half that many, i could easily master ANYTHING you hold dear? have used it up, spit it out, and invented 9 more things? i have made mistakes, and done more than you possibly could already, just by virtue of being much more than twice your age. no, really, you just don't have enough data to back up that position. if i honestly felt you had something, i'd listen, another fault of the 'old', but you're just spouting shit you heard on the tubes, or your friends told you. i heard the same shit in high-school, and it was wrong then, and you should be embarrassed you're wrong now, because you could LOOK IT UP, RIGHT NOW, on your phone, but you're trying to school someone that's DONE THAT, so many times, been there, got the t-shirt, sold it on ebay, made $5000, and no, really, just, SHUT UP. don't make me change your diaper. also, bzzzt! knock it off :>
