GREAT pictures, Peter!

[zenheretic]

Spydercos, as far as the eye could see. :D

I see the Jesters are growing...

[T-Rex]

Vielen Dank! :)

[Axlis]

Outstanding!

[fellyjr]

Peter.............I'm speechless!! :eek: :cool: :D

[WhyNot]

Peter,
Very impressive Group photos! My personal favorite is Horn family.
Any Kopas?:rolleyes:
Are you going to continue?
WhyNot

[ront]

Such a very nice collection Peter!! I know that we are not supposed to covet, but...

Ron

[jaislandboy]

Most enjoyable pix of your collection Peter1960! :cool: :eek: :cool:
Thanks Peter, this is my :spyder: - fix for the day... ;) :)

[bh49]

Amazing pictures. Thank you.

[ozspyder]

Great collection Peter, and great photos as per usual too.

Didn't realise Spyderco had a factory in Austria :p :rolleyes:

Cheers
Daniel

[Peter1960]

Dankeschön! - Thank you!

I try to give an answer for all comments: Jesters are growing, but I'm still looking for some. One of you ;) was/is ... "spechless" - I'm so glad that computers have a keyboard; this enables me to answer in case I will see a photo of his :spyder: secret collection :D Kopas ... are complete, picture will follow, I promise it!

@ Ront: Please don't do it! More and more I've to rethink what I really need, Spydies are "nice" but not my philosophy of life ;)

[bh49]

Kopas ... are complete, picture will follow, I promise it!



I cannot wait for these pictures. Persians, please

[David Lowry]

Peter. I'm blown away by the picture of all of those knives as far as the eye can see.

Can you tell me about those boards with the dowels that you use to store them? I was considering making something similar just a week ago to put my EDC rotation Spydies on. Did you make them?

If you think this should be answered in a PM or in another thread please feel free to let me know and I can move/delete this post.

Cheers :)

[Peter1960]

...Persians, please
Sorry can't do it, from Ed Shempp I've only one C83 and the C104 :o


... Can you tell me about those boards with the dowels that you use to store them?
Will do so and will open another thread in some days! With box/board-photos :)

[David Lowry]

Thanks Peter. :)

[bh49]

I am speechless. I am shocked. :confused:

I wish my group pic's were as nice as yours, Peter!

Nice Kopa- collection!

[ozspyder]

Peter ! WOW ! Awesome photos as usual..... great composition :D , great photos.

Oh, and the knives aren't too bad are they :) ;) I love Kopas. Might have to start herding them downunder. Polished S/S bolstered inlaid pocket knives seem to attract much less attention from our customs officers :) I've gotta find more Kopas . I hope Spyderco release the next one soon, cos I'm getting itchy :cool:

[fellyjr]

8 x Kopas so far :)

I envy your Horn collection a lot :)

[Peter1960]

Thank you all! I like them too and I've to say that the time for hunting a micarta horn is enjoyable. I know what I say as I'm hunting the horn burgundy micarta now to complete the round ;)

[bh49]

Peter, there are two knives that you have that I am coveting right now. The PE C-27 and the PE CF Cricket. These two are alluding me! :(

Very nice display of Spydies! :cool: ;) :)

[Peter1960]

Felly,

You have a terrific accumulation of Spydies! :cool: It's good to have a strategic focus, but please don't make the mistake and despair of knives you covet. Enjoy the wonderful Spydies you already have!

Just my 0.02 € :)

[WhyNot]

...Just my 0.02 € :)
Wow! It is almost $0.03 US nowadays!:D

Peter,
Your "photo-surplus" is sooooo impressive!
As always, your Horns are my favorites.
How about Titanium group? I believe you have a couple in one of your previous posts? Any more?
WhyNot.

[shriek]

Thanks for the effort Peter those came out real good.
The Black Delica reminds me that I want a Run of a Black Bladed fully serrated please.

[Fairlane]

GREAT pic's Peter! I think you have a great Horn collection there! And you have the CF Dragonfly... I still haven't found that one :(

Thank you Peter. You are very insightful. ;) I guess in the heat of the moment when I'm trying to find the next "got to have", I loose track of what I already have. :o Thanks for putting things in a better perspective! :)

All my FRN users are black, besides the yellow Rescue. Can't say that black is my favorite color - I really would like to see more in orange :) (orange Calypso Jr. :cool: )

[bh49]

Very nice picture Peter. I love green, the most pleasant color for my eyes.
It looks like long wait is over :)
Nice FG collection. Are you going to get FG Manix? It is a monster, too big for me, but looks good. I was able to handle one. Henry1960, my coworker carries one.Do you FG Delica? How it is to compare with Caly3.
I hope to see more pictures soon.
Thank you for sharing.

[amen74]

Love the Greens Peter. Nice photo.

[WhyNot]

Beatuiful composition!
Welcome back, Peter!
Will you continue?;)
WhyNot.

[ozspyder]

Servus Peter :D

I love that photo of your FG goodness .... very nice picture. Great cool green colours for your springtime. It's the exact opposite on my side of the world at the moment and very refreshing to see some life in yours :D

Keep up the good work.

[Mr Blonde]

Nice daily dosage of greens!:D Have you noticed how the foliage green G10 seems to shift color, depending on its surroundings? I find that the FG color can shift from grey to green to 'faded denim blue'.

wouter

[jaislandboy]

outstanding foliage green photo Peter, thanks :cool: :)

[Peter1960]

I hope you like pink :p

Beautiful photo Peter! I would carry any one of those NKP friendlies.:D

[mrappraisit]

Peter - Good thing I didn't have the monitor to "full bright" or those pinkies would have seered my eyes.:p:D Nice pic.

[Mr Blonde]

Nice, I knew that pink could be just as cool as 'camo'!

Wouter

[ozspyder]

Photos of flowers ??? Oh wait ! I see them now....oh so sneaky :D :p

Nice pic Peter. I like my pink knives too. Keep them coming.

[bh49]

I hope you like pink :p

This was a hint :)
No pressure, so :D:D

I actually do not :cool: ...
... unless it is on your pictures!
Your pink is so vibrant!
Nice, very nice!
WhyNot.

[Peter1960]

Today I inspected my accumulation and found these Delicas. Picture quality is poor, I know ... hope you enjoy it for some other reasons :)

[raggasonic]

Huge collection :eek:

If you want to get rid of your blue D3, I'm sure I can find a pocket to drop it in :D

[RIOT]

Hey Peter,

what is the emblem on the blue d3 ? did it come like that ? need a close up of that if you can

[Fairlane]

Nice Delica collection, Peter!

[WhyNot]

Peter,
I enjoyed you picture for variety of reasons. I am really glad that you are posting pictures again and the depth of your collection is very impressive.
Please continue:p
WhyNot

[The Deacon]

Very nice Peter.


Hey Peter,

what is the emblem on the blue d3 ? did it come like that ? need a close up of that if you canIf I had to guess, I'd say someone glued a Spyderco "bug" hat pin over the D3's logo.

[RIOT]

Very nice Peter.

If I had to guess, I'd say someone glued a Spyderco "bug" hat pin over the D3's logo.


makes sense actually, i dont own any hat pins so i couldnt recongnize it.

looks kinda cool though, thanks Deacon!

[bh49]

Very nice set of Delicas, Peter.
Thank you for sharing.
Are any Delicas missing from this set or it is complete?
The third from the top on the left. Is it micarta? Custom?

[LowSpeedHighDrag]

Wow, great collection. Im seeing some knives Ive never even seen before!

[Peter1960]

Thank you all for your good words; I will continue :p


... If you want to get rid of your blue D3, I'm sure I can find a pocket to drop it in :D
I still have some pants with some empty pockets, so no chance :D


... what is the emblem on the blue d3 ? did it come like that ? need a close up of that if you can
I bought it from an American and as Paul said, he glued a bug-pin in the handle. It's not on top over the logo, he cutted the logo out ... nice cut&paste job.

These are all my Delicas (at least I think so), do you know one in my collection I didn't show?
The third from the top on the left is carbon handled.

[bh49]

These are all my Delicas (at least I think so), do you know one in my collection I didn't show?

I can be wrong, but I think I saw yours 25th Anniversary Delica?



The third from the top on the left is carbon handled.

thank you. I never heard, but hoped for micarta.

[Peter1960]

LOL, you and RIOT miss the C76 Anniversary Knife and you are right, it's a Delica variation. I totally forgot it :o (it's not stored together with the Delica infantry).

Please, do not stop, keep them coming.

just a friendly reminder

Kopas ... are complete, picture will follow, I promise it!



There are thirteen of them now. Not a rush we can wait :D
few more days :D

[ozspyder]

Agree Peter,

Fantastic composition of the Paras with Autumnal colours (Fall colours to some of you :p). It's a great counterpoint to the Spring colours here in the Antipodes. Keep them coming for sure !

Yes, that 3x Para was nice.. now I don't hate autumn as much anymore.. although its raining cats and dogs at the moment.
Black Para, with a 4-way clip, yes please :)

[bh49]

Nice pictures Peter. Impressive set.
Thank you for sharing.
Are any other variants of Military exist or this is complete up today set?
(you know, there will be more, many more:))

[wescobts]

Peter,

I don't have a collecting bone in my body, but I must say that you have an amazing collection, the thoroughness, the condition in which it is kept, truly a wonderful discipline you have studied and followed from a to z. I appreciate what you have and done, my very best to you. :)

[Peter1960]

Looks like I have your collector bone in addition to mine. You want him back? (would save me money in the long run) ;)
I appreciate your kind words. Merry Christmas!

@Roman: I have all steel variants from the Military but not all variants. This is my complete set of Militaries. I'm searching for a ATS-34 2-screw/3-screw plain and some others to make the circle rounder.

[bh49]

Peter,
Thank you

[spydutch]

Hey Peter, that top one stands out like a sore thumb:p

All them ugly serrations:rolleyes:

I think it will look better between my Millies:D:D;)

[bh49]

Peter,
Happy New Year. I wish you and your family happiness, health and prosperity.
I hope next year pictures will be as beautiful like this year and will inspire me again and again to buy beautiful things (like Shabaria).
Thank you for a year of beautiful pictures.
Roman

Great pictures Peter. Very nice Police set. I love this background, especially on close-up.
Teeth are amazing. For some reasons I am not crazy about serrated blades. I believe that currently I have only one SE blade. Still I love close up pictures. these teeth are amazing.
Thank you.
Keep them coming :D:p
IIRC, there was some talk about Phoenix, was it? :)

[Peter1960]

Phoenix :confused: From what Phoenix are you talking :confused: I haven't heard of it :rolleyes:

Do you like to remember me ... betimes, do you? :p:D:p

Dear friend, If you like the background, let's change the thread ... during this evening I will post in my other thread for single knives; see what happens :cool:

[bh49]

single knives sound great :)
