LYFSFUN -

Quite a nifty collection, there! Very well organized in a fantastic case. I agree with GigOne, show us the beef! Can we get some pixs of the knives? About that display case: what's it weigh & is it on wheels?

[LYFSFUN]

Both sides of the drawer.
All fixed blades.

Thanks for all the kind words.
Everyone of my kids just can't stay out of the chest.
Makes me smile to see them keep looking and trying to decide which one they like best. Guess whenever I kick off they will have to draw numbers. I tell you it is very nice to be able to quickly get to a knife. No digging thru tons of cases to find one.

Top to bottom
Sub Hilt 11" Overall
Lapis and damascus with engraved guard 10 & 1/2" oal
Fighter 12" oal

 

[LYFSFUN]

The other side of short/long bottom drawer.

D/Guard Persian Bowie 11 & 1/4" oal
U2 10 & 3/4" oal
Large Fighter 13 & 1/2" oal

In the middle is a nice Hunter.

He Tom no worry,each kid has his shift and all grew up in the woods.
If we all leave town the knives go to the safe.
Looking foward to seeing you in Vegas.
Hide something under the table for me.

 

[LYFSFUN]

Tall/long bottom drawer.
This is the Kit Carson Hunting Set.
All damascus with leather by Kenny Rowe.

Every piece has perfect balance. He built these to be used.
Kenny did a great job on the leather. Each piece has a sheath and then all three snap into place inside the saddle bag. I really like the set. It makes me want to go get on a horse and ride.
