Here are some from my archives. I mess around with arranging knives in groups for photos. I sold the Weidmannsheil knives and still have the Cattaraugus Cutlery knives. One of my favorite patterns.
Every one's a looker. Especially like those 35s. Thoe M&Gs are my faves. Great group all around. Loved going over those babies.

Some beautiful collections and displays, everyone! Most of my stuff stays squirreled away in my tool chests.
Here's the state of my custom collection right now...
And I also love Bruckmanns, here's the current hoard...

Dang, all you guys have some impressive collections - and some really cool photo taking here, too! We need an AAPK calendar for some of these photos!
Here’s my Corelon Trapper collection…

My little stash for the safe Queens. The users get left out on top of the dresser.

Great pictures everyone! Picked up a couple new Tuna Valley Phoenix Jacks this weekend to add to that sub-collection. Hope to get some other groups posted when time allows.

Nice shot Kevin. Great idea making a spoke of knives like that.
Q, you have such a diverse collection. What amazes me the most is that you have a lot of the ones you collect. I’m fond of that particular Kershaw myself.
Tvic, your Corelon collection looks beautiful. I had a few of those over the years, they never disappoint.

Thanks Mark! Always appreciated your feedback.
I thought about you and all those beautiful Schatts you scored a while back when I was sorting through a ton of them at the gun show this weekend. I was fortunate enough to take home a handful of them, but now I may have to go back to work full time to support this new addiction.

Fabulous group, every one is a work of art I must say. They don't seem to make any that look plain Jane. Beauties.

These are a sub collection I have. All Rigid brand made by Canal Street. Amber carved stag bone. In case anyone isn’t up to speed on these, these came about when Rigid contracted to have these made by Canal Street. Then while these were being produced Rigid pulled the plug on these. Smoky Mountain Knife Works bought these out and completed the project then sold them on their “Kniveslive” broadcast. I think there were 100 of each pattern made. The first 25 or 50, can’t remember for sure, were all serialized. This is one of those serialized sets, all serial numbers match.
These knives are some of the finest in my collection.

Great looking knives Mark! Beautiful ACSB and always cool to have a set with matching numbers...

Woweee, beautiful everything. Loooooove the ACBS for one, but also Canal Street. They put out some sweet, sweet knives and seems like they are seldom seen, and to me underrepresented. Every one of those is gorgeous. Congrats on some killer knives.

Thanks Iman. I agree, you don’t see enough Canal Street knives. They made some gorgeous knives and so well made. The prices on them have really increased since they went out of business too.

QT, this is one awesome thread! As you said ... it is like browsing tables at a knife show! I have been through it 3 times now, and I am still amazed at the fine, outstanding collections pictured here by all! In one word Wowwwwww!!
When time permits, gonna have put one of my collections up.
Thanks All!

Wow, you guys have got some museum quality collections here! Hats off to you all.
You’ll notice no real brand allegiance here, but I am drawn to the old school aesthetic of cigar frames.
I think the old Ulster is my favorite. It’s seen a lot of abuse, but it just looks and feels “experienced” for lack of a better word.

Got these in a collection I purchased last month. Thought a group shot would be a good idea before they all found other homes. Robeson by Queen red stag bone. Might have to dig out some other sub-collections in this 44 piece collection but this one stood out right away.
Top left: fiddleback whittler, second down on left: humpback whittler, third down on left: peanut.
Top right: stockman, second down on right: Congress, and last is a tuxedo knife.
Over looked two others a canoe and a muskrat.
