Alright guys... time to whip'em out. Let's see'em...

Bring out your pride and joy, and the rest of your collection if possible (I know some of you nutts have like a 3000 knives, so, only the good ones).

But, for all the little guys like myself, let's see'em...

And... while we're at it, how do you post pictures again. I know Madcap has his handy-dandy guide to posting pictures somewhere.

Thanks,
Cleary

P.S. Don't be shy... whip'em out. :D
 
EDIT: new pic, this is what I have now

Yes, my Dodo is filthy. I swapped an alternator last night, I only cut two zipties but it still got all groady, my LM too. I don't know that the hell happened to my Wenger so that Vic is gonna go on my keychain sometime soon.


Purple/white lanyard is by Sporles, I'm not sure if he ever did recieve the money I sent :confused:
 
I'm no collector, so there's no high dollar knives in this picture, but here's five of my favorites.

On the left side: Boker 7474 Stockman, Victorinox Climber
On the right (top to bottom): Buck 110, Spyderco Native, Benchmade 710 (current EDC)

The Boker is a very nice knife that I feel bad for not carrying more than I do, the Climber was my first SAK. The old 110 was my very first knife (I've had it for 18+ years)... the Native is nothing special, but I like it, and the 710 is my latest purchase and I'm very very happy with it.

I thought the CRKT was good, except the sheath, but I didn't really care for the 530, the thumbstuds and the Axis bar was too low profile (well I guess it was a low pro knife, heheh), the action was a little stiff too. Partial liners I guess. But I liked the spear point a lot more than I thought I would. Good knife if you're looking for low pro.


Psychopomp: nice stockman! I like slippies but I don't know if I would carry one either, clips have spoiled me. :(
 
These photos are the best I have at the moment. They are out of date, and were not that great to begin with.

Here's a pic of just Bruckmann knives, also out-of-date:

Hey guys, those are great pictures so far. I think it's interesting to see what kind of a collector you are, whether it be your five favorite or your whole collection.

Keep up the good work... I'll get my two knives up on here soon.

Thanks for the ones so far, keep it up, and update your pictures...

This certainly isn't my entire collections of Bucks... but here's a few.

On the left, a 1991 501, in the middle no dot 110 and 2005 110, and on the right, a 2004 301 (yes, I know the bolsters need polishing badly... I'll get around to that) and 2005 55.
 
It's Chrismas in January!!

I just got my Al Mar Sere 2000 S2K and Benchmade 710HS. I love them!!! :D

Here are a few photos.







 
My Favorites are all on my album site you can click on my logo bellow to go there.

My Favorites are my Favorites because they were made by my personal friends, they would be; two by Ed Fowler, two by Kit Carson (including the stag M4 in his avatar) several from PJ Tomes, an Art Washburn and my JW Smith. I can't say that Tony Bose is a personal friend, but we have met and talked and his stag slipjoint is just a joy and a star in my collection.

Hopefully to be added to my Favorites this year are a stag slipjoint engraved Barlow from my buddy Tim Herman and a stag Model #1 from Mike Obernauf.

There are many collections that I admire, but none that I'd swap for.
 
MIke, I don't think BF has enough bandwith to post a family shot of your collection :)
 
Many of you have already seen these pics, and they are fairly old, as I am adding to my accumulation all the time. :rolleyes:

Anyways, I collect mostly traditional patterns, with my focus on older Schrades. Heres some pics:

It's nice to see such a variety, guys.

Bob W, I've got a handful of those Bruckmanns too. Got mine years ago off SMKW warehouse find. Nice...

AG Russell had some last week in his weekly e-mail special. It was a pattern that I hadn't seen before so I had to snatch one up. They are common on eBay too, even in mint condition, and sell for far below the price of a comparable new knife. I have about 19 of 'em.

I also collect OldTimers, primarily the brown delrin models. I have 34 different patterns, plus some variations of those, so maybe 40 all together.

Is that a Bark River Tanto in your bottom pic? I have a couple of those with the Amboynia burl handles, one with the turquois spacer and one without.

Actually, I believe that is a Taylor/Seto. (Trying to remember. It's at home, I'm not. It's definitely a Taylor, though.) That knife is at least 20 years old, that's when I bought it new down in Texas.
