Love that blue color and those fancy engraved bolsters.

[doglegg]

And I agree with Philco.

Queen 64 in Burnt Stag Bone:

A very nice looking knife Venice. Burnt stag is a real eye catcher.

[Sasquach]

Nice Queen Venice!

[Venice]

Thank you for the comments.
They did get the stag right on that one.

All these nice looking canoes have inspired me. Schatt & Morgan toasted stag canoe with a clip blade instead of the spear blade you normally see.

I was checking through this canoe thread to see if there were any baby butter beans before asking, when I came upon philco's 'canoe'.
Because my next comment was going to be about how the canoe has religiously kept its spear point in the face of overwhelming current production clip point dominance.
Well I don't know if S&M deserve a or a for their clip point 'canoe' because they changed the spinnaker for a lateen sail on their canoe.

Baby ButterBean:

[Edgewise]

Very nice! Very pocket friendly in every respect.

[Venice]

Thank you.

[Sasquach]

Nice stag on that beanie, Venice! Always nice to see others posting some canoe patterns.

[Venice]

Thank you. Kinda like it myself.

Canoe overdose!!!

This arrived today via the ol' UPS brown mule train.

It's difficult to get a good photo of this one because of the glass reflecting the light.

[philco]

Holy Smokes Charlie ! You've pulled out all of the stops on that one. Color me impressed.

[Sasquach]

Well Phil, I've never bought a complete mint set before but I figure a man's got to splurge at least once in his knife collecting life. When they came out with one that is ALL CANOES.... ...I couldn't resist. I've been scheming and saving for this one for almost two years. I'll probably never buy another Mint Set.......unless....yep...you guessed it....they do another one with all canoes.

[philco]

Charlie I'm happy for you that you were able to add it to your collection. What a sweet addition it is.

[Sasquach]

Thanks Phil!

[bighomer]

You do'od good Charlie congrats.

FANTASTIC!

[doglegg]

Who better to have that? You did good Charlie and you got good too. That is furniture. That is art work. Happy for you.

[Sasquach]

Thank you gentlemen for all of the kind comments and compliments! I guess you could say it is now the center piece of my canoe collection.

[Sasquach]

Another new addition to the fleet.

I snagged this on fleabay cheap with no box or paperwork. I wonder whose member number is on the bolster and how it ended up on ebay.

Quite a coincidence Charlie!
The May 1st email from Shepard Hills had one of these sets that they were breaking up.
It's gone from the website now .....

[Sasquach]

I saw that email Chris. They had the full set marked down too! Of course Murphy's law ruled supreme and I saw the email the same day my set arrived! I got a great price from another dealer but I still could have saved some money. I'm not upset, I could have been one of the folks who paid about $1600 when they were first released.

I just added another canoe to the fleet!
