Slipjoint fever

[kapt kopter]

Well I went out and traded an old Bear bow for the following new slippies.
1.Browning 520 AUS8 steel with a nice stag handle
2.Browning 342 Traditonal middleman style with AUS8 and a bone handle
3.Buck 305 little guy with a tin gift box.

As I am a newbie to slipjoint collecting what is everyones experience or thoughts on the Browning slipjoints?
I think I prefer the U.S. made slipjoints but these feel pretty nice and were fairly sharp off the shelf.

All in all a great deal and I got rid of that worthless old bow that was sitting in my garage for 10 years lol

Brownings aren't bad as an entry-level piece. When the fever really sets in, though, your mania will know no bounds.
