What is the record??

Here's a pic of a small part of my collection. All told I have around 75-80 HI's, 15 KH, 24 Busse's, and a whole bunch of other blades. HI is the largest group of blades in my collection.

Oh man Ted, I see so many great ones I don't have!: the backwards blade (and the one with white feathering no less), a Falcata, that excellent katana with the inlaid handle, that knife with the great wire wrapped handle (what was that called?), and that FF (or is it a Samsher?) to the right is really something. Great wood on that.

Like I said, you can't get them all. I missed several of those models on DOTD, just too slow, even though there were a couple of chances on the backwards blade as I recall. I've never had a chance at a Falcata, which isn't unusual.

Very nice stuff, and all unique. :thumbup:

P.S. Twenty-Four Busses!?

They are brothers. The 25" horn Malla is yours if ever I sell it.

Thanks Mike! That is a beauty all right. I appreciate that very much, and should have mentioned you had it. (So I just did on the post. )


Some models I hardly pay attention to, but when I pull them out to sell them I can't hardly bear to part with them! For instance, I emailed a guy about a 12" antler pen, and he couldn't swing it at the time. The first thought I had was "Thank goodness!" Guess I'll keep it for a while longer.

I have one.

Does that count?

Norm - that GS is a special knife - I'm sure you know it already. HOLD on to that one.
