All About Pocket Knives

Hi everybody,
I'm happy to post on the forum my first Eyes! I've recently started collecting and really like the Schleipers. These are mostly Copperheads and I've included a few photos and notes. Any comments would be appreciated as I'm interested in learning as much as possible on these nice pieces. Except where indicated, all are one eye blades; tangs stamped C. Schleiper/arched over eye and above Solingen Germany (on two lines):

Jim Bowie - red jigged bone; The Owens Coal Miner Special; round shield picture of coal miner; tang stamped GX-RB 1985
Deep Red Jigged Bone - tang stamped GX
Pinkish-red jigged bone/lines - tang stamped GX; has bolder etched stamp on blade
Smooth Green Bone; not marked with GX; shield looks very close to the others but has slightly smaller eye and Solingen signature
Grey Jigged Bone; tang stamped GX; smaller etched logo than on other GX s; and bomb shield is slightly different at top corners
Dark Stag - tang stamped GX-DS; round shield
Yellow - GXY
Pink/yellow/blue-green; two eyes on blade (etched on three lines:premium quality/hammer forged/solingen-germany)
+Light Stag Stockman - tang stamped 350 DS; eye over Germany on sheep foot and pen blades.

69,

Welcome to the group!
Those are some very nice looking knives!
I think I like the green bone best.

Thanks, Keith. I really like the green bone, too; although, you love all your kids the same, right!

Sure thats a good thing to say....

I look at my knives like ladys, so I can like one more.

I sure have a strong like for your YELLOW eye.

She just jumps out and says take me home.

I want to live with lots of my YELLOW sisters.

I just happen to have a few....
