Any knife collectors ?

[Daniel]

One of my other hobbies (and an endless pit) is knives , specifically custom local knives we have some amazing makers that make top class custom knives. If anyone is interested I can hook you up not a sales pitch please just a passion for anything locally made.

Started on the productions like Spyderco , Benchmade , CRKT but it is all relative as with vaping mods as well it seems LOL

Below is a pic of my modest collection (starting from left) :

Top : Benchmade 940 & BM 710 (the classic)

Middle : Spyderco Military S90V CF (keeper) , Spyderco PM2 with custom scales , Spyderco Delica , JD Ellis Slipjoint wharncliff , Spyderco Atlantic Salt (great for fishing trips the H1 steel does not rust) , Spyderco Sage 1 CF , Jason Guthrie #2 prototype Ranger

Bottom : CRKT Hi-Jinx (Ken Onion design , CRKT's first attempt at a more higher end mid-tech) , Three Sisters Forge Beast (my hard use little beast).

CRKT are awesome blades

It took me a year and a half to find an s-blade butterfly and finally found one in DBN

If you dont mind could you PM some pics of your blades?

What has been the most challenging blade you have made thus far?

 

[Twisper]

Hi @BhavZ, most challenging was a sword I made for a German customer. Nowadays I only make folding knives, love the challenge, linerlock and lockback, sometimes the occasional hunting knive.

Below are a few pics, sorry for the quality.
