What knives are in your collection?

Hello all:

I'm new in the forum and really glad to be here.

As many others I'm just starting, this is my humble lot:

- "Original Bowie" vintage Solingen, the jewel of the crown
- Puma Skinner II
- SOG Seal Pup elite
- Muela Storm, black epoxy coated
- Muela Typhoon, normal finish
- Muela Scorpion
- Buck Rush Platynum folder
- CRKT M16-12Z folder
 
Next on my wish list and budget are a M-9 bayonet by Ontario and a SOG tigershark. Let's see, it is not easy to get that one in Mexico.
 
Hrm, methinks it's just about time for me to take a new group pic. Anyway, here's the listing... (I'm at work)

Just a quick question. I am looking at a Combat Elite TAS and a RRF. How do you like the RRF and the company?

MPE
 
I LOVE my RRF. It is an excellent knife. Great knife. Sweet titanium framelock with S30V blade. I am lucky I got an RRF when Darrel Ralph still owned the company!! I liked Combat Elite when I got my knife, because Darrel Ralph and his son owned it. Now it is owned by Wilson Combat. The Wilson Combat folks seemed nice enough, but, I dunno, I don't feel that the same quality is there in the RRF now that they own Combat Elite.
 
Not a chance I could list them all from memory. But copying from my recordbook, here's what I've bought in the last 12 months:

1- vintage Bruckmann
2- 'nother vintage Bruckmann
3- vintage Bruckmann

6- Schrade 15OT
7- Don Hanson III custom, stag bowie
8- Schrade 61OT

10- Schrade 51OT
11- vintage Bruckmann
12- Anza custom, cocobolo
13- Schrade 44OT
14- Schrade 14OT-W
15- Schrade QU53OTG
16- Boker Arbolito
17- John Primble Old Timer, 935, by Schrade
18- vintage Bruckmann
19- John Primble Old Timer, 933, by Schrade
20- vintage Bruckmann
21- yet 'nother vintage Bruckmann
22- Schrade 158OT
23- Ulster 10OT
24- Ulster 5OT

I think thats it, there's probably more then that laying around here somewhere. Can you tell I like doubles of everything. It's a real sickness!
 
Here's some pics from a couple of years ago. At that point I think the best thing I had was a plain regular Sebbie.(Which went to Matt Cucchiara for a Meltdown and Fizz and now it's one of my favorites.)
