I've been planning to take photos of my modest collection for some time and finally got around to it. They didn't turn out as well as I would have liked but oh well, what can you do.

This first group belonged to my Father who died 30 years ago next month. The collection contains some fairly nice pieces and them some junk as well. My favorites are the Schrade auto, Boker "Tree Brand", J. Rodgers and Sons, M. Klein and Sons, Camillus, Ulster and a V'nox advertisement knife with "Cryovac" the name of the company for which he worked. Unfortunately my mother gave several other knives to his friends as keep sakes. I don't begrudge them those knives because I know how close they were to my Father.

The second group is my own collection in it's current form (minus a V'nox Soldier which seems to have disappeared :( ). I think they are all fairly recognizable.

What are those 5 in the middle? I don't think I've ever seen one of those. Are they expensive?

:D

Awesome collection tf.

I'm not sure of the brand. As to the price, very cheap. I got them at a Flea Market from some burley fellow known as "Honest Bubba".
 
Maybe your soldier made its way to my house, because I found one today in a drawer that I thought I'd lost a long time ago. Someday I'll get around to putting a pocket clip on an SAK.

And if you feel like parting with one of those cheap knives, I'm kinda partial to the one above the Spyderco, I'll gladly take one off your hands. I'll even give you the soldier I found today and a pocket clip for it! What a deal right? Get rid of a flea market, single blade knife, for one with a blade and a can opener!

It's a very tempting offer T but Honest Bubba made me promise to keep them.
