Everyone’s posting some mighty fine knives! I haven’t posted in a while, so here goes. I thought Ole Shoe and Methuselah could use a buddy. Picked up this yellow CV Kickstart last week. It’s a little small, and takes some getting used to to open. I was surprised with the good quality control on the Kickstart. Thanks for looking, stay safe everyone.

Thank you! I wanted to try something different than my usual stockman or backpocket carry. I carried a whiz bang quick opener years back. Always had it on me. Carrying the Kickstart the same way. I like the paw paw looks of the Kickstart, but also like the one handed opening feature of it as well. Have a good one!

♫Zippidy Doo Dah, Zippidy Aye, The Postman Stopped by My House Today♫

Received these today. 1st A Camillus 72 Limited Edition Duck Etch blade Like new in the Box. Listed in the 1991 Sears Christmas Catalog. Has the late production Camllus double line tang stamp with matching oval shield, and has Bone handles. Only around 2000 of these were produced. Just now opened the box, you see it as I received it. Very pleased.

I've been drawn to the PENA X-Series front flipper Wharncliffe Swayback with natural Jade G-10 handle ever since it was released but I just couldn't bring myself to fork out $275 for it. When I found a brand new one on sale for substantially less, I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger. Glad I did...it's a cool looking knife IMO and a Wharncliffe Swayback is right in my collecting wheelhouse. Also, I'm a sucker for black blades & hardware which makes for a nice contrast against the jade G-10.

(The first photo is from a dealer's site because I had a hard time showing the true color of the jade handle in my photos)

Very Nice "Q". I agree, the black Warncliffe blade really makes the knife pop.

You boys are bringing home some pretty nice cutlery, I see. Each one ticks a box for me, a nice selection to choose from.

I tried posting individually earlier, but we all know how poorly the site was running and it wouldn't allow me to "Submit" anything, so, I just want to comment on all the really beautiful cutlery everyone has been showing, it's been quite a treat! Thx! 8)
