Picture also shows my fiddleback whittler collection and some other whittlers and the 3 on the right are Marbles Germany knives. Had to move them out to make room for more Marbles Gladstone knives.
Great looking collections everyone! Awesome collection of Lone Wolf Pauls, Mark! ::tu:: And I love those Whittlers too. ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::
We may have to add a few more Gladstones to finish filling that Case.

S.O.G. knives & multitools. My latest are the Twitch ll and the one with the key ring hoop. Ten bux for the pair. Twitch is missing the pocket clip. Nice little knife but hard to grip & operate much the same as the Kershaw assisted open models.

I've been expanding my budget beauty japan made Parker collection lately ... these always require a bit of a tune up, but they have great snap and most have bone sides ...

Thanks fellas ... those 3 little Parker lockblades with the finger stop are probably my fave lockblades - each has unexpectedly incredible snap ::tu::

For some reason Parker knives just don’t get the respect they deserve. Say what you will about the man, the knives are built like tanks and produced in staggering varieties. I see you have my personal favorite model in your Parker collection, John ::tu::

Picking up a bunch of Victorinox Swiss Army knives as of late. Have a bunch more to share soon but here’s the start. From left, Compact, Explorer, Ranger, SwissChamp.

I didn’t realize how well made these are. I’m quite impressed. Plus they are reasonably affordable IMO.

Nice lunkers there! I have quite a few SAK knives myself. I don't carry them like I used to, but I definitely value them for their utility and how well put together they are.

Found a rare and discontinued new in box Victorinox Swiss Army Scientist (came with box and red plus scales). Swapped out the red scales for white scales and added a yellow lanyard. (I usually take a pass on lanyards but they seem fine on SAKs).

Now I think it truly looks like a (mad) scientist. I suppose I hurt the resale value by removing the original scales but maybe not as they are easily replaceable.

Cool knife, I have a Swiss Champ my grandma brought me back from Europe when I was young. I burned a lot of leaves and sticks with that little magnifier.

Updated photos of three collections. Kevin and I traded several knives and the 6 ivory Micarta Marbles were part of the deal. All made in 2001 under Dave Shirley.
Kevin included the Mcusta Ripple in the middle of the collection, so I updated my Mcusta photo.
Lastly Kevin traded me for the wine colored Moki designed by Ruple and made for Culpepper’s, it’s below the red stag version. Enjoy the eye candy.

I'm giving some serious thought to sending that GEC 56 EZO to ol' BIGHEAD Barry to dress her up in some beautiful Amber Stag. ::ds::

Wow! What a great looking line up of knives. I have been truly blessed with great knives over the years. Seeing all those together makes me proud. Amber stag on that 56 would look amazing. Hope you get it done. Thanks again.

Picked up another A.G. Russell dog leg trapper. This one is the dark brown wooden handled one. Not sure if this is cocobolo or desert ironwood or something else. This is one with wooden handles that I didn’t see in the catalog from when they were offered the first time, the burl wood and the stag and pearl are in there but maybe this was from earlier or later? Not sure. Love these trappers. Roland sold me my first one over 5 years ago, the stag one. I always think of him when I handle this knife. Sure miss him.
Love the swedge on these blades. Wish I knew if Moki made or who else might have made them in Japan.
