Photos Sharing CRK Art - My CRK Collection

Wow...
Just simply wow...
Broken record here but that small Native American UG is just perfection in my eyes.

Awesome!

The words that come to mind first are amazing and ridiculous. That's quite the spread there plus I really dig the table. Looks like lots of damascus as well. The night sky's are some of my favorites and I'd like to track one of those down eventually. The native american symbol one is super cool as well.

Are they all unique with respect to size, graphic, blade, inlay combination or are there dupes? Out of my budget but more power to you. Guess I'll add a third word...WOW.

After seeing your collection LW, I'll take my marbles and go home.
Outstanding collection !!!!!!

Beauties Lone_Wolfe!
I have a favorite in there, well a few, but I'm hoping to find a small Native American UG some day.

So the NA is your favorite? It is a nice one, for sure.

Thank you! As for the Night Skys, here's a pic of 2 together. As you can see, a common theme but each is a little different. The MOP inlay is by far the most common, but they make others. I'll be getting pics of the 2 that I have here together as this progresses.

I'm hoping you'll group them and share them in smaller groups.

 

[ice_man]

should have not look at this thread.. LW, you just make me want to buy more CRKs

but seriously, awesome collection you have here.. by far the most number of CRKs I saw with some of the best designs and damascus patterns...

 

[Lone_Wolfe]

I'm hoping you'll group them and share them in smaller groups.

That's my intent here. Please do make suggestions if you think of any groups you'd like to see. I'm going to do blade type, lefties, style, Mnadis and Zaans, and any themes I or anyone can think up.

Thank you. And I can help you with that, you know. About a half dozen of these are on the block.

 

[Ajack60]

I'd like to see the regulars, inlays, uniques, CCG's as well as the other groups you mentioned.

 

[Lone_Wolfe]

Yep, those are all going to happen.

Here's what I think is going to be my smallest group, Numbered Limited Editions.
Top is a Redwood Burl Mnandi with BG-42 steel. This one is #2 out of 25 made for Knifeart after the initial production run of 200. These are so uncommon that I've only ever seen 2 of these come up for sale.
The Seb is one of the first run of Insingos. 30 were made, this is #21. The blade shape has evolved just a little, but I don't have a recent Insingo for a side-by-side. This was also a Knifeart exclusive. I believe these are the only 3 KA exclusives I have.
The Zaan is a 10 year commemorative for True North Knives. You'll see Mr Ostroff's little empire is pretty well represented on this table. The tanto Zaan is #5 of 10 made.
