A few knives from the Case USA era...the Twin Fin set is one of my favorite's.

NICE STUFF EVERYONE!!!!
Here's my latest catch;a Queen #4180 Rawhide Series with what is likely not the original sheath.Posted more pics on the Q&A section trying to find out who made this if it wasn't in-house.Have a couple of Queen kitchen knives but this is the first fixed blade I've seen by them.Any info greatly appreciated.

Great collection as always Ray

Here's my latest, a Weidmannsheil.......

My Hubertus.

This link is heating up nicely. I love the Waidmessers. Here's a few more of mine.

This one was my Grandfather's. My Grandmother gave it to him for Christmas in the early '60s. The original sheath fell apart and I made the one in the pic in the late '80s. The etching on the blade is long gone but I remember that it was made in Germany. I can't remember who made it though..........any clues?

Here are a few favorites.

It looks like an old EDGE brand knife. They used a Moose logo but the Deer head and rack is the logo for another German maker that slips my mind now I'll keep racking my brain though
Here's a Bosna fixed blade. Notice the handle accents.

Someone else told me that it looks like an EDGE MARK Brand. There was a deer (stag) head on the original sheath, that's why I tooled one on the sheath I made. It had some rust on it when I got it because my Grandma left it stored in the sheath after Grandpa passed and the leather attracted moisture. When I cleaned it up and sharpened it I must have "cleaned" off the etching too.

Tongueriver, you're a man after my own heart.......................like me...................you have waaaaaaay too many favorites!!!!!! That's a beautiful array of choppers & slicers there my friend! Thanks for the show.

Here's another of my fixed blades.....

Some great looking knives guy's....quite a blade show....

My latest a Swamp Rat Knifeworks.....Ratmandu with 5" blade.

Here are some of my fixed blades. I am replacing the handle on the Camillus MK2 on the top left. The leather was rotten and the 67 JPK Camillus on the bottom right magnet had rotten leather also and its a WIP too.

I love the Ontario Kitchen knives so have the one old one Ontario Knife Co and the new Old Hickory Ontario True Edge. I still use them in the kitchen once in awhile.

I just realized I posted some of these on another forum but thats okay I think. I love these knives. I also have all of the folding Machetes and they are pretty cool also.

Good gosh - everytime I think I am getting excessive with the number of knives I own (fixed or PK) I just log on here to see what a real serious collector has accumulated! You guys got some knives - NICE!

I hope you guy's haven't run out of knives all ready....here's a pair of Treemans, I need to get one of these bloody this year.
