Picked up a Battle Axe in Desert Camo from Eagle Valley Cutlery. The fit and finish are spot on, interesting blend of colors.

Unusual handle but looks good. The axe blends in perfectly.

Thanks, dog. I might have to look for the other one too.

Great Pick-Ups everyone!

I got a text from my good friend on the Big Island in the middle of the Pacific last week, looking to move a few things to fund a project he is working on. And I must say, ol' Q is fully aware of my weakness for Stag, Mammoth, and Wharncliffes, as I ended up buying everything he was looking to move. Man, if I keep this up, I'm gonna have to go back to work full time to fund my addiction. The first four pics are the beautiful knives I purchased, and the last picture has the extra Schatt & Kershaw "Bombs" that were not part of the original deal but greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for all these beauties, brother! I assure you, they will be cherished for many years to come. And you can also be sure that I will be hunting extra hard for those elusive ACSBs to add to that sub-collection when I attend another show in two weeks.

Wow Kevin, you have great taste in knives.

Wow Kevin, you have great taste in knives.

Thanks Mark! That is a great compliment coming from someone with such impeccable taste in knives as yourself.
I'm hoping to get a group shot of my barbed wire bones with one of your beautiful Moki SFOs in the Sub-Collection thread later tonight.

Kevin, I commented on the Bombs in the other thread, but Wowwwwwwwww again! Stunning pieces!
If that group of knives had eyes, they would be looking back to see if anyone is L@@king back @ me!!

Thanks Tony! Appreciate the feedback and enjoy looking at all the beauties you've been posting. Now if I could just get my photography skills close to your level.

Your photos have Excellent++ lighting, and show subject detail very very well. Do you use a booth? Mine are taken in my shop under LED strips.
Shadows and blacked out blades are my thorn in the flesh, unless I get the correct angle.

Thanks Tony! I just throw my white piece of fabric on the bed and spread a white sheet between the bed and the lights above to soften the light and knock down the glare. I've thought about spicing it up like several of you guys but haven't figured out a good canvas yet.
Thanks again brother!

No words, Kevin! But that Wharncliffe Whittler is just stunning, as they all are. But that one is special!

Thanks Kerry! I've been catching up today and see you've been posting some beauties as well. Always appreciate your positive feedback brother.

Yes, that was part of the deal...apparently you did read the fine print. And don't forget the part about unlimited, unannounced and unsupervised visitation rights if I ever start missing my "babies"

You know where they are brother. Feel free to visit them any time. Got plenty of room for ya... Just make sure you plan the visitation around a knife show so you can get the full experience.

I received a totally unexpected package in the mail yesterday with this...
Parker Benchmade Top Lock In Wood From 'Q"
Can't thank you enough for this volcanic gesture 'Q' !! I did not have one of these in my collection.
I almost bought one a while back, but had my eye on something else at the time. How did you know? Many thanks again!!

You must be really ga-ga over this knife, Tony, this is the 4th different thread I've seen you post it in! I get it, buddy, I'm the same when I receive one I'm totally impressed with! Ga-ga on, buddy!

Very cool knife, Tony! Love the blade on that one, and your pictures are phenomenal as usual. Good on Q for another perfectly placed "Bomb".

Just picked up this Bear & Son large sheepfoot Barlow. It will make a nice work knife.

Got my German Creek Knives “The Nashville” today.

I must say I’m pleasantly surprised. The knife is on par with Rough Rider, Roper, Frost Family, Marbles or Queen City. Fit and finish is very good, 440 stainless blades, nice brown smooth bone. The blades have good half stops and nice match striker nail nicks and very nice walk and talk.

I only have one complaint, the blade markings.The left main blade, show side, is stamped “Nashville Tennessee” with a guitar between the words and 440 Stainless on the pile side. The right main blade is stamped “German Creek” with a buck’s head between the words. Neither small blade is stamped. With no stated country of origin , those in the know realize the knife is imported. All the other brands I mentioned above stamp “Made in China” on their knives. I wish German Creek would do the same.

To be clear, I am not disappointed in the knife in any way, just with the lack of a country-of-origin stamp. Sorry for the OCD rant!

*Just discovered my Imperial Schrade dogleg jack IMP42 has the same "problem". Discovered when I was putting the German Creek Congress in a storage folder. (7:45 PM)

[Corn Creek Cutlery]

Bill, that is a Good L@@king knife! Like the shield and color!

What a fine knife, Bill, and that cool shield is the best, as well as most fitting with what you do!
