Russell my first sighting of one of the blue ones was on ebay a couple of days ago. I'm like you, I'm struggling to keep up. Now I find out there's also a rams horn version.......... Oh well that's part of what makes this hobby fun, the chase. :mrgreen:
If I add any more I'm going to have to use a larger display case.

Beautiful collection and that Wilde"BEAST"...ooouch...so when are you going to jump on the engraved Buffalo Horn from Droppoint?

So on a serious note the only one's I figured not included yet is the Rams Horn,Burnt Stag Founders Day and another Elk with the CSC shield...any others

Phil,
That is as purtty a set of knives as anybody has ever put together.
The blue rope really shows well. ::drool:: ::drool::
I hope you get 2 or 20 more this year.

Thanks guys. I have just today recieved yet another one I didn't have in that collection handled in green abolone. The one I already had was a Red Hill Cutlery SFO in what they called paua (a type of abolone).

I hope to somehow locate the others as time goes by but with such limited production numbers that's likely to be quite a challenge.

Gino I got that case in an ebay purchase that included one slipjoint knife in the case. It's got a glass top but I photographed it open to better show the knives.

Time for another update. I've now located and acquired one of the elusive Oiled Rams Horn models and also picked up a prototype in Angel Wing Abolone at the 2012 Blade Show. Thought I'd post an updated photo of the now expanded display.......
