Very nice Mark.
The blue bone Henckels and the Hen and Rooster are beautiful. Henckels are one of my favorites.
Here are my Coleman blue jigged bone Seki Japan made collection.

RevolverGuy, that is a great looking pair of blues. I too also especially like the Henckels.


Mark, great looking Coleman's. My eyes were immediately taken with the sowbellies.

As best I can recall this is the only blue knife I own. It’s in my back pocket right now.

Edit: just remembered I’ve got an old Camillus Cub Scout knife around here somewhere. ::hmm::

I'm really thinking about the Free knife-based tools. I dislike the pliers-based options, but as a "pocketknife with extra stuff" they're quite nice. I have a Crater C33T from Leatherman (in addition to about 10 different multitools), and it's bulky, hard to used left-handed, drivers close up with too little force, and the "Blade Launcher" flipper type mechanism does not work (stiff).

I love the faded look on the handle! That was the one they made for AKTI to auction off earlier this year, correct?

Two LT Bucks.

CPM-154 110LT "Shield". Silver Knights Blades SFO (plus sheath with blue piping and logo)& 110LT Slim Select. When I need the bigger blade of the 110, the Slim Select I really love. It's also a one-hand opening and has a pocket clip.

My letter and package opener.
A very inexpensive, foreign made pocket knife.
But it does the job.

Those are halfway decent keychain knives. At least they managed to get the serrations right, which is rare on a cheap knife. If security or the TSA takes it, big deal. I have a black one around here somewhere that came free with a secondhand Leatherman I bought. I have a smaller one that fell off my keys, and I didn't care that I'd lost it (did find it a week later). But I did the $50 AG Russell with a titanium handle it replaced, however.

I have two of them. They were included as
extra gifts by an eBay seller that I buy from.

Correct. I think it was a one-of-a-kind made specifically for the auction, but that could be wrong. I’ve never seen another like it, but I never saw anything that said so either. ::shrug:: Whatever, I bought it for a good cause and have been using it ever since.
The tools were really tight - difficult to open - when I first got it, but either it’s loosened up or I’ve learned how to operate it. Or maybe some of both. :lol: The tools are sturdy. I’ve used the screwdriver a lot, and yesterday I used the scissors to cut some Kevlar line on my weed trimmer, a job I usually use diagonal cutting pliers to do. The scissors had no problem cutting it. I’m right-handed so haven’t attempted it left-handed but it appears to be ambidextrous to me.

Thought I'd throw a few in here.Some are re-handles and used blue Plexiglas I had left over from a show car sign I made for a friend. Others are "CCK" aka cheap Chinese knives and some are just unusual. Hope you enjoy them.

I think you would win the most eclectic collection of knives. You really have some interesting knives there K7K.
It’s interesting to see what pulling together a single color from our collection’s pairs together with brands, styles and handle materials.

I really like the Subaru ad on that first one! I've also seen a Cummins Diesel version, but Cummins is actually molded on the rubber. I have a blue one here somewhere, but it's plain jane.

I just like the 3000's but that was the only blue one I could find to finish out the seriesl

I do have another “blue” one assuming this counts. I’m embarrassed I forgot about it, because it’s a gift from my youngest son. Customized turquoise Case 07, by Stuart Yellowhorse.

That’s a beauty Ken. Nice color combinations on that one.

3 more to add. A Case Copperlock in Indigo Blue bone, one of my favorite colors that Case has done. A SOG Bluto. A Case Blue Smoke Kirinite Canoe, from the CCC. It is interesting the different knives that pull together when you group them by color.
