Tell you what Dan – – – ship them to me and I will take good pictures for you then I will ship them back to you on the seventh Tuesday of next month ::hmm:: … Will that work? :D ::rotflol::..seriously tho, sweet collection!

Thanks for the kind comments Roger, Ryan, Tom, msteele6, John, Lloyd and luckydog64.
Thanks for the offer, Ryan, but I think I will pass. I think I get OK pics of individual knives, it is the group shots I have trouble with.
There are still lot's of them out there Tom. My pile of KKs is pretty small compared to one of the other posters on this thread.

Great looking collection, danno. ::tu:: ::tu::

I see you have one of those Jumbo Sleeveboards, is it a whittler? Are you using magnets in your display case?

Thanks John. Yes, the sleeveboard has the blades in a whittler configuration. The smaller blade are a pen and a punch. All of the knives in the display have been posted individually at some time in this thread. Yes, the knives are held on with rare earth magnets.

Dan, Outstanding collection. I'm proud to be the seller of the first knife in that group. Here is one from my whittler collection, stamped E.C Simmons St Louis on all 3 blades 3 7/16 closed.
I think this has some after market engraving on the back springs, done many years ago?

Spectacular EC Simmons, Barry! ::tu:: Thanks for posting it. I love that etch! I have only seen that particular etch on the EC Simmons and Simmons Hardware stamped knives. I would agree that the engraving on the backsprings is after market.
