Dansword, Q, Sharpshiney, BHomer, loving the show men. Loving it.
Not really a collector of these 66s, but accumulating a few over time when I happen to see one. Picked up one to add to the group.

Fabulous looking group of 66s
They're all nice but that Glennbad dyed stag mod stands head and shoulders above the crowd, IMHO
BTW--Five of a kind is an accumulation, but when you reach a half-dozen you've crossed the line into collection territory

5 is okay, 6 gets me into the dreaded collection status? Didn't know that, good to know, I will note that. Thanks for the compliment too.

Two stellar collections, Mark; I'm sure very satisfying to collect and own. Nice layout and photography, too, makes them very enjoyable to look at

Going through my catacombs recently, I discovered that I actually collect two types of knives I did not realize I was collecting (according to the definition of a collection I imposed on Ivoryman's 66 accumulation
)
Vintage Ebony handled knives with long-pull spear main blade with a swage
Random Antique/Vintage Bone/Stag handled knives

Thanks Q. You have such a vast collection, you never cease to amaze me. The bone and stag are super nice, but there is something about wooden handles that really trips my trigger.

Floyd, compliments from an "old accumulator with kindergarten knowledge" is equally valued and much appreciated...the Monkey does not discriminate when it comes to stoking his pride and boosting his ego

I'd have to say my all around fave stockman is the Case 32 pattern - not too big, not too small - biggest plus for me is it doesn't have a spey blade, but a pen blade, and it's a tad slimmer than the 18's. Here's the stash I've managed to accumulate ---->

Thank you Garry.
John that is a nice accumulation of stockmans. That would be the same favorite of mine until I discovered the sowbelly stockman, then it took first place.

There are far too many beautiful knives and posts for me to comment on, guys, suffice to say all you guys are showing spectacular arrays of your knives that I feel privileged to even just view!
Many thanks to all!
