Do not worry Brian!
Daniel is just a boy...with toys...knives...guns...and kids.
:D

Hey Daniel,
You need to buy few more (dozens) Master Chiefs for your son just to hold your Persians, or they are already your son's?

Daniel,
After spending A LOT of time reviewing the 15 pages of this thread I am still in shock! What an awesome collection of Spydies you have!!!! :D
The pictures are amazing as well!!!! Such beautiful shots!!! :)
I must admit my goal is to have one of each variation of the dodo and one of each Yojimbo! As well as a Ronin
Absolutely gorgeous picturs and I thank you for sharing!!!!

Hey Vic,

Thanks mate. I'd have to say that a fair few of my collection has been either gifted away, sold, or passed on to mates either here in Oz or to other parts of the world. I have taken on board a lot of knives and as Peter1960 has said he believes I am a 'photo-collector' :p I like buying knives, taking pics of them, then getting bored of not using them, so I sell or gift them :D

Unfortunately many of the knives you see here I have not EDC'd and those which I do not think I will EDC for one reason or another means I get rid of them. I do have an EDC pile of about 1-2 dozen (yeah ... I know.... I lost count :p ). Pretty soon that number will also have to drop so I intend to give some of those away as well.

I have been very slack due to work and family commitments and have not paid attention to my picture thread for some time now to the dismay of a few of my forum buddies especially Roman (bh49 :D - they are coming Roman I promise )

Well those photos are outstanding!!! I really like the integration of nature in them :) What is a better backdrop than the earth's natural beauty! :)
I will check on this thread to see the new photos you put up
Take Care,
Vic

Daniel you put my collection to shame but the good news is i have two Kris in the mail to add to my growing spyders

Hey Vash

you'd be surprised at what I have and do not have currently in my collection. The Kris unfortunately I sold off a while ago. I regret doing so but I know it is in a good home now :) . I couldn't see myself using it then but now I might do so in the garden. So I'll have to grab one sometime in the future.

Currently concentrating on getting a few I have been meaning to trial out for cutting power and EDC viability . A few trails to hunt down and in particular the Anniversary Delica as a user :p . Aside from that the Millies , Kopa and Persian projects have been keeping me occupied. Also I am now getting more MBC/ SD oriented blades to complement my previous martial arts training and future arts as well.

Will then sell off the ones I don't use or like (or if I get bored with them :) I have the attention span of a gnat :p )

I will add more pics to this thread as Spring & Summer are here in Oz I will do more yard shots.

need pictures. :)

Some more Rock Salt porn :p I like the sexy curves !

Should I get this Kreined?

ozspyder wrote:Should I get this Kreined?

That's a good question. The blade looks so beautiful just as it is (well, especially so in your excellent photos) that it would lose something with a full flat grind (if that's what you mean by Kreined). Then again, it would probably be able to slice through concrete at that point, so if you have a back-up or 2, why not? :D

Daniel,

congratulations on a wonderful collection and on the superb pics! thank you for sharing! and keep them coming, please! :D

cheers,

Just a couple of new ones I got yesterday :D

The DigiCamo Millie went straight out to an Australian Spec Ops operator stationed in the Ghan as a Christmas gift. The Kopa Carbon Fibre didn't make it to my cupboard - it was dump immediately into my pocket :p

DigiCamo Millie





Kopa Carbon Fibre

Nice Kopa shots! How do you like it so far?

Amazing Rock Salt porn too btw.

Wouter

Daniel,
Very nice pictures. I love your Kopa,
still debating with myself if I should get one more :confused:
For some reason I thought that you were planning to make a group shot?
You have a beautiful background, full of green. Probably the weather is gorgeous.

Thanks Wouter,

I like the Kopa (ummm ... of course i do !!! :D ). The CF scales is a bit different to the ones on offering previously and it harkens back to the beginning of the series when the Cocobolo and black micarta were introduced. I think it adds a simple elegance with such modern materials used in a very technical and fashionable manner :cool: :p

I like the Rock Salt but haven't had the chance to use it yet being too busy with work. But I see some Summer gardening projects coming up which I wil have to INVENT some ways to use the Rocky :D

Roman, just use it. Get one more if you want. It is very hardy material and priced pretty well might I add. Even though I bought mine before the price drop. The Kopa whilst being a collectible Spyderco really is wasted if it just sits in the cupboard.

A group shot is on the cards but I'll have to get the timing right - with so many Kopas in the cupboard and so many people in the house I have to plan the photo shoot so as to get maximum creative time with my lovelies :D

That's it???? That's all you got?????....Dang....Put them all together and it just looks like my EDC for the day....geesh!!!...Get yourself a few knives why don't you...you deserve it! :p Doc :p

Here is a very small update on the few I have got recently. I couldn't resist taking these off my mate Tony's hands :p

Finally I managed to quickly setup something outside :) Very nice knife and something I would be more than proud to use on a daily basis. However, I am still contemplating that prospect as I already have a massive EDC 'pile' :p

THAT is such a great looking knife mate!

Great shots too............
