Agreed on both counts. I'll drop a hint for my upcoming birthday celebration and see if I do that well...

Thanks JP and Dan.

Good wife, good life, better tell her she's right popular around here.

I will tell her that Iman. And thanks.

Thank David.

I recently got this in from Roland, a Schrade 735 with a Ted Williams etch on the blade. I was pretty excited about it, as I have another just like it, and thought it was kind of a unicorn.

There was also a nice Camillus riggers knife as part of the package. Don't have pics of that. Also, Roland was generous enough to also include a few Schrade knives with possibilities in for nothing.

A nice Schrade duo, Glenn. Congrats!

A sweet duo Glenn.

What fantastic scales on those, Glenn!

Picked up another Beretta "Trident" liner-lock Wharncliffe; this one has a Cocobolo wood handle.

That's very slick, Q! Nice pickup!

Q that monkey either has gotten a girl friend or is quite eclectic in its taste. Cool knife.

Very nice knife ~Q~. Let me ask you, are the Beretta knives getting a jump in popularity or could it be I'm noticing them more because I picked one up recently.

Fished this Camillus DeLuxe out of the bay recently. I especially like the milled liners and also the fact it has the no line tang stamp. More pics in the Camillus forum. Thanks for looking.

I think they're pretty much like any modern factory produced knife in that some of the "discontinued" patterns (like the Trident) occasionally show up on eBay and often it seems that several show up at the same time. I don't know why this is, but it does seem to be a pattern. And, also, if you're like me, after I purchase a particular knife, I suddenly feel as though I'm seeing that knife a lot...but it may just be because my attention is more focused on that particular knife so I tend to notice it more even though it has probably always been there and I never really took much notice of it before. Same thing happens to me with cars I'm interested in...suddenly I start noticing that model everywhere...even on TV commercials that I never paid any attention to previously.

A lot to like about that knife, Floyd...I especially like the long pull on the master clip blade...now that's what I call "DeLuxe" !

Thanks Q.

Thanks ~Q~ and your right I've done the same thing with cars too.

Roughly analogous to a flea market. The Stag in particular cleaned up real nice. Good save!
