    25th Anniversary Delica

    I was lucky enough to nab one of these not long ago. It really is a beautiful knife.

    2 from Mr Lum

    I love the Tanto with Titanium scales, it just fits into my hand perfectly. The green Chinese is also nice and I have a blue one on the way, can't wait to see it.

    Manix

    I am definately a big knife person. If the manix where a car it would be a hummer

    I also have the Chinook 3 which is probably even better. I'll post pics of that later.

    Mr Walker and the Spyker

    Not sure why, but I get the impression that the Spyker does not seem to rate highly amongst the forumites I think it's a great knife. I actually bought two so that I could have one for an EDC. It's just a bit big for where I live so I have to be careful where I use it.

    .....And Mr Walker needs no introduction.

    Smile Titanium twosome

    A couple of titanium beauties. I was shocked when the Police came.... Damn it's big . It's the same size as the millie but looks and feels about a foot bigger
    ......and I already told you how I love the Lum Tanto

    Italian beauty

    Everything from Italy just has that certain style about it that makes it stand out from the crowd. The Volpe is no exception.

    Well that's all for now folks. I have more knifes to take pictures of when I get a little more time.

    I hope you enjoyed this lot.

    Yes, we did!
    Your collection is very impressive.
    It looks like pool table is a perfect setting for great pictures!
    Looking for more!
    Thank you,

    Thanks Brian

    Why do you think the Spyker does not rate so much? Is it the blade shape?

    hi Frank,
    i guess its "unpopular" b/c of price, the big logo on the blade, the fact that it is recurved (harder to sharpen) and has a linerlock.... I find the shape of the blade very versatile, hawkbill fused with a upturned wharnecliffe.... I also like the somewhat "radical?" styling with the silver CF twill inlays.... the linerlocks on mine are solid...much like the lock on my Viele2....

    I guess you may be right.

    The liner lock is also dumped on by a lot of guys, but I think it is very handy for single hand use and if I was going to put so much pressure on any lock I would simply go to a fixed blade for the job.

    ......But that's just me
