Even after selling or trading away almost 2 dozen on the past month or so, I've still got a CRK or 2 underfoot.... 
I tucked them all back into thief boxes for a pic. I left out about a half dozen that are still on the block, and another half dozen that I left in my safe deposit box. So here goes.......
Mandis and inlayed Sebs. I brought the Mnandi collection down by half, keeping only 2 lefty-righty pairs and 3 fairly collectible ones. One is a numbered in BG-42. My Jigged Rosewood isn't in the pic. The inlayed Sebs I pared down pretty drastically, keeping only the very figured ones like my 2 Box Elders, 3 Lignum Vitaes, a small African Blackwood, and of course my River of Fire. That one's in the unmarked box. The Blackwood was my first CRK, I sold it once, got it back, traded it away, got it back again, now it's here to stay. There's one of my Annuals, The Owl, in the pic. The other is in my deposit box.
Next up is my plain Ti collection. 2 Ti-Locks, 5 Zaans, several Sebs. In the Zaans I have all 3 versions, with an extra old pivot with lockbar one. That one happens to be the smoothest Zaan I've ever handled, so I keep it. There's also a numbered tanto. The Sebs are a 25, a P, a pair of BG-42 Classics, and several Regulars. The unmarked box is holding a lefty-righty pair of BG-42 small Regulars. No plain 21's in the pic, although I have a couple on the block.
Now we have my real CRK love, graphics! My Rado damascus, my Sapphire Night Sky, my autographed box UG, and a couple others aren't in this pic, but you get idea here.... The 2 unboxed Regulars are BG-42. The small has a box and birth card, I just don't know where I put them at the moment.
There is on bow in this pic by mistake, the large Micarta with Raindrop should be in with the inlayed Sebs.
I should probably quit teasing and go to bed now.
