Old collection pics vs new..then and now

[marcus52AR]

Just went looking through my photobucket and found this wayyyy at the bottom.

Post an old pic if you've got them!

This is about 3 years ago. Don't own many of these anymore. Neat to have a snapshot of my collection of the past.

Just dug out the old box the first collection pic was taken on. Same # of folders I had then haha. Two of these were vacation purchases as well. (can you guess) I'm also going to sell the stretch, super blue and now the HAP version. Great knife, I just don't carry it. I'm going to make some room for the next one.

That's a very neat picture, you have a knife shop?

This is my first collection pic. The only ones I still have are the Emerson, Buck, and AK bayonet. Kind of regret the 53 and Dragonfly.

Current collection as of today. Only two not pictured are my bayonet and Buck stockman. I forgot to grab the bayonet and can't find the stockman. It's somewhere in the house.

Not with knives, but as far as Multitools, this was my collection before joining the Internet forums...

as it is today:

Yup, these forums are full of enablers for sure.

That is a whole Lotta multi tools! I've got 6 I think.

Let's see the knives! I know you've got some good ones.

I just changed the title from "old collection pics" to old vs new.


Cool to see a collection from years ago, more cool to have a recent pic to see where it's at.

Appropriate change and very cool idea.

Thanks for the comment.

I think it's interesting to see the evolution of a collection. I have had so many different types of folders from when I first got into it until now. I have a few cell phones I need to revive and I'm going to try to fill the gaps with a couple pics from the middle.

It's always fun to see other collections.

I'll never forget my Kershaw Leek collection. This is one of my favorite photos as my collection was growing. It ended up more than doubling from this size, but I still think this is one of my favorite pics.

That's a whole lotta leek!

Very nice assortment, man that collection took off!

Very nice knives you've picked up so far. Basically a knife per week haha!

Since I posted this I added 3 kershaw knockouts (2 more to go and I will have all of them), and I'm still waiting on my ZT 801. Probably won't be buying anymore for a while unless I find those knockouts I'm looking for because its time to pay the bills again.

Thanks! I think I'm at a slowing down point finally. So I say today...
