Good morning gents.....(and ladies if there are any here)
My name is Kerry Elliott and I live in Mississippi. I started buying knives when the ammo shortage hit a few years ago. I don't consider myself a collector because I really try not to buy anything that I would not carry in my pocket. I love stockman style knives and I have an affection for German steel. When I was a kid, we lived next door to my dad's boss. He was a big game hunter and a knife collector. I can remember him showing me some of his knives. He kept them in tackle boxes in his shop. I have no idea how many he had, but it had to have been hundreds.
Anyway, he introduced me to Kissing Crane, Hen & Rooster, Eye Brand and some others. He even gave me an Eye Brand that I still have. It was very sharp and difficult to open. My dad put it up so I would not hurt myself with it.
I have around 100 knives, none of which are anything really special, but I just love knives.
