All About Pocket Knives

Thank you Jerry.

I have two that are blue. I bought the Buck Creek because I found it very attractive (and I didn't have a Buck Creek in my possession). The Case I saw on Amazon for $26 new, and bought it. I should have put 5 in my cart: I thought about that the next day and went back--the price had changed to $48. *sigh*

I like the handles on that Buck Creek, very nice.

I have a few to add. Two GEC knives and a Sowbelly Case in Blue Smoke Kirinite. The last picture are of two knives made by IC Cut. The fixed blade is handled in blue aluminum with gold lipped pearl and abalone. The blade is San Mai with a VG-10 core. The smaller knife was an anniversary knife done by HIRO, which is owned by IC Cut in Seki Japan, the handle is aircraft aluminum laminated with the artwork. The blade is also a San Mai blade with a VG-10 core.

Nice ones Mark More of a ivory, stag or burl guy, but these two have nice blue in them. Used my SSK Moki the other night at dinner to cut my rack of lamb.

Those are nice Kris. I love Paua abalone, one of my favorite handles. Of course I love the Moki. Glad you are getting good use from it. Thanks

I seem to have a disproportional amount of blue knives - I guess I kinda like blue

Nice John, me thinks you like Case knives best?

Thx Mark ... & yeah - I'm kind of a one trick pony ... pretty much stay with Case's.

Got in a Blue knife today. I listed it in my store and it deserves some attention. It’s a beautiful Cuttin Horse Sowbelly made by Hen and Rooster, Bertram Cutlery.

Anyone else acquired some blue ones since this one was last active? Post them please.

That's a beauty Mark! Congrats!

That knife has great appeal Mark.

Some small lVictorinox and Wenger Swiss Army Knives

Almost forgot this one;second from the left.

Thanks Mark and Garry.
K7K that bottom set is really nice and very well displayed.

Couple of blue MTech's. This one is "in the mail". Should be here by tomorrow. Seller's picture of course.

Recent acquisition - Kershaw Leek 1660NBBLK

You lucky duck. Yours was made in the USA. Mine was made in China or was it just the box?

Of all my Leeks, only one (the same one as yours, jerryd) was made in China. That was the first I had ever heard of Leeks being made offshore. Now that I know about it, I'm much less inclined to buy any more new Leeks...I only want the "older" Made In USA model. Some may argue that the made in China Leek is just as good as the USA made Leek...and they may be right, although I beg to differ. This is just my personal bias and I'm sticking to it.

That is the original box they came in;along with the cardboard outside box.There was a stick-on price tag of $89.99 on it;I paid $50 for the set.I posted a picture of it on another site and several people said they sell individually for $100 to $125 normally and about $800-$900 for the complete set.Some European artist designed the artwork on the handles(they are all different).There is a scene etched on the blade and printed on the handle and each one has a certificate of authenticity.

Got this new blue one to add to my collection a couple of days ago. It’s been posted in the mail call thread also. This is a Dave Shirley Marbles whittler.
I also got a another Congress with the same rope jigged bone handles.

My meager Blue collection... 3 pretty good ones though...

You may think it's meager TMK, but a very handsome group just the same!

Great looking trio! Is there a Wharcliffe main on that smaller one? I really like the size of that one. What pattern is that? Copperhead?
