My ever growing collection. The ones in the center, top right knife and wooden fish cleaners came from my grandad. Some nice old imperials.

I have shown them individually, but I had these two in my pockets today. Due to the crazy warm winter we have experienced, I was able to shoot them when I got home this afternoon with blooming flowers reflected in the blades.

Wow, that's a gorgeous table! What is the wood?

Had these two in pocket today, a John Lloyd Shadow in rosewood, and a Case Peanut in chestnut bone.

Here's another picture of the Peanut, with it's cousin the Kinfolks Sway Back Gent in honey brown bone, both perched atop the blue bird house.

I am about to begin trying my hand at making a knife and will likely use the damascus one as inspiration. I like the blade profile very much.

These are just the ones I have pics of at the moment. I'll take some more later.
 
My Sister got married, and gave me this. Been carried for a few days, pretty much in love with it. Lightweight and perfect size. Came a bit dull, sharpmaker made short work out of it.

Here's a handful out of my EDC basket. From L to R: My new Tracker 4 that was waiting for me in the mailbox today, Kabar 1173, Kabar D2, CRKT Hissatsu 2 (one of my favorite knives I've ever bought), Kershaw Saphire, Sog Twitch II

This Tracker 4 came in the mail a few days ago, to go with my Tracker 2 above:

Bought this Gil Hibbon Negotiator 2 for a friend who will be camping with me and doesn't have a knife. I know it's a little fantastical but he will love it and it was a very good price.

And lastly got this Victorinox today, the box had a sticker on it that said C-Max. Not sure if that's the model number or not. Says 96 on one side of the blade. Any input on this one is welcome. For $10 I couldn't let it stay in the shop. Used, but it had the box.

It was JTW Jr.'s post at the top of page 10 of this thread that set me on a search for a John Lloyd knife. I found one, and the process has revived my interest in pocket knives.

I decided to snap a few photos of my oldest knives this afternoon. I purchased the Schrade serpentine jack and the Colonial Barlow when I was a young boy in the late '60s/early '70s. The Böker Tree Brand stockman I probably bought in the late '80s when I was building docks.

My recent renewal of interest in pocket knives has caused me to get these three out and do some work on them. I knocked down most of the rust that had accumulated on the Böker due to it sitting in a slot of a leather tool pouch for the past 20 years. I am in the process of finding someone to rescale the Colonial. The Schrade, which was the last gift I gave my grandad, has an honored place of retirement.

I finally got around to locating most of my knives for a group shot, there's a couple in boxes from moving that I haven't unpacked because I can't wait to move to a better State. I did not include my swords, of which I have several, or my beat-to-heck machete either. There's a couple crappy ones in here, and a couple nicer ones to make up for 'em :) My collection doesn't come close to much of what has been posted here, but what the heck I've been collecting knives for well over a decade, I might as well join this thread. I'm excited that I was able to get in on the Kim Breed Necker deal, so I'll have one of those soon too! :D
anyhoo, here's the group shot followed by a couple close-ups

You may notice in this one that my Benchmade 42 is missing a screw. It's been missing for about 3 years now! and that hasn't impeded its use in any way, much to my surprise. I was waiting to take this picture before sending it off, I talked to them recently and will be sending it in now for a 'tune-up' :)

I actually have three of these unfinished zippo knives... one of these days (or years) I'll get around to honing an edge on 'em and making different grip panels for each one :)

I remember wanting this Buck knife from the time I was about 16 years old, I bought it a little while after I turned 18 (almost ten years ago wow) and it has served me well
