I got into knives shortly after I got into glass pipes, knives are a better investment because they don't break. I started thinking "Should I really be investing in glass or steel" |

I always have steel at hand, anywhere in the house, both doors, vehicle, travel bags, work shop and bloom.

This Randall Model 15 Airmans knife sold on eBay about two
years ago for $7,450 an early Vietnam era collector piece. I bought this 1989 R1128 off of eBay quite awhile ago, it had been torn down and extensively file worked then the wooden Cocobolo grips were replaced with Black Buffalo Horn. Bolsters, blades, liners and backsprings were worked. I love this model Remington, pattern #R1373 the 2007 Bullet knife aka the Renegade. I own three of the limited edition engraved models issued by Remington, best collectors value. The MercWorx Seraphym a serious piece of steel. Comes with that combo belt/neck scabbard. $275.00 + shipping online. Last edited by Stoner4Life; 10-12-2008 at 08:43 PM.. |

I dont currently own any knives but I've been thinking that carrying a good folding one (Stoner: those Remingtons look pretty sweet) would be very useful. Don't most states have laws on how big a knife you can carry?
Don, your knife collection looks pretty old school. Do you have any folding knives for discrete carry? I'd imagine you can't walk around in public with a big bowie strapped to your belt... and is that a 20mm shell in the background? Does the blue tip mean something?

Best knife I've ever owned, very sharp and convenient to open. I have the Delica:
![]() The specs: Spyderco will undoubtedly fulfill many knife knuts knife fantasy picks with the introduction of the Waved Delica and Endura. Waved models combine all that’s functional and performance-based in a Spyderco folder with the Wave Blade-Opening feature made popular and patented by Ernest Emerson of Emerson Knives. The Wave is a hook curving out the top of the knife’s blade. When removing the knife from a front pocket the Wave catches the pocket’s edge quickly opening the knife blade ready to use. The knife can also be taken out of the pocket without engaging the Wave Opening Feature by pulling it straight up and out with your fingers on top of the closed blade. Waved Delicas and Enduras have screw construction making cleaning and adjusting easier. Their gray fiberglass reinforced nylon handles are molded with Bi-Directional Texturing® for traction and improved ergonomics. Inside the handle dual skeletonized stainless steel liners strengthen the knife without additional weight and create an anchor for external and internal components to attach through for more sturdiness and rigidity. Their VG-10 blades are flat saber-ground with a stronger tip and larger 13mm opening hole. Added to the blade’s spine is slip resistant jimping. Phosphor bronze washers smooth out the open/close action and the clip is upgraded to a four-way tip-up, tip-down, left- or right-handed clip. Last edited by Wonderon; 10-09-2008 at 03:43 AM.. |
