Great collection. My only (for now) JK Knife is "The Tool" pictured below. Plans are to buy more over the next couple of years and I would hope to one day have a collections as nice as yours. I absolutely want a Kukri and several other of his knives. The Tool is really a class piece of cutlery. I absolutely love mine and have made a point to post about it (with pics) in appropriate threads in other sub forums.

I understand John's issue and hope it works out for him. Most importantly, I'm concerned about John. But from a selfish POV, I want to buy more of his product.

Here's The Tool, my current favorite fixed blade and a great knife.

My favorite knife picture I've taken - it's also my favorite knife.

Click on the picture and it'll open a new window where you can view all sorts of pictures I've taken over the past couple of years (most of the pics are of knives - a lot of them are JK knives I've owned).

Love that kitchen set Mqqn should have poped a set when that came out :thumbup:

I need to get a group picture as well as some that are more current but these will do for now.

Here is the first Appalachia Special which I designed for my brother. It's stamped with a 1 on the other side and come Christmas my two sons will have numbers 2 and 3.

My EDC the Mini Appalachia.

My Kephart HD and Pocket Kephart.

My JK's, photo of Hiker is Taht's photo.



BTW, there is a thread under Traditional knives and fixed blades, asking for suggestions for a good outdoor fixed blade. I put my JK knives up there. Great opportunity to get some free advertising for these knives if a few people post pictures there.

The Kephart, second from the bottom, is the rarest Kephart ever made. It is the first Kephart I made when I switched from using only oak for handles to phenolics, and is the only one ever made with what bearthedog called "magic micarta", because of the two tone look. It was actually the now discontinued brown garolite. After that one I switched to black.

I need to get some new pics of mine. This thread gives me the incentive to do so.

It's great seeing so many Rule #9s. I didn't know they were out there. Love 'em.

This may be my favorite picture. I love that knife and absolutely love the shot!

The orange handled folder (I think?) - with the long handle ratio to blade length, looks like it might make a good whittler. Which one is that?

High on my JK wish list. I really need to get one. In fact, I might just order one to go with my custom. We'll see...
