KNIVES' KNIVES' AND MORE KNIVES

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 9:30pm 2 Comments

As for a lot of us we love collecting knives. but it seems before you know it there are so many knives they are crowding your wife's shelves in the hutch and taking up room on the shelf under the t.v, even hanging on the walls. This happens to a lot of us knife collector's. Sometimes we seem overwhelmed because we like to show off our collection. We don't want them sitting in a drawers and safes and places were they can not be seen. Even when you put them in knife rolls it seems like you…

Knife Collecting... a Great Hobby

Posted on October 17, 2011 at 10:00pm 15 Comments

From the time I was a young boy I loved looking and watching my dad buying and collecting knives.When he gave me my first knife I was in love . I starting going to places to buy knives.

Then when I started working I would pull my knife out to cut something and people would ask me were I got that.and I would tell them. It always gave us something to talk about.

Then…

Where is the Best Place to get a Knife Deal

Posted on October 13, 2011 at 7:30pm 19 Comments

So many places to get a deal on a knife. You have the internet so of course you can go to eBay or you can go to your local walmart or hardware dealer. You can even get deals on knives at the flea market. You can even get deals from knife shows on t.v.or even better yet you can get a custom knife made for you the way you want it. Right here on iKC where some of the best knife makers in the world. I like custom knifes and the factory ones. When I buy I like to put in my hand, see what they feel… Continue

What is the right size knife to take hunting with you

Posted on October 3, 2011 at 7:30pm 6 Comments

What is the right size knife to take hunting with you? There are many different knive's people take hunting with them.but what size is the right size.from hunting big game to hunting small game. There are many knife's to choose from. Say for instance you go deer hunting and your gun jam's and you run into a bear that does not want you around I'm sure you would not want to pull out a skin'in knife.or if you got lost and had to cut wood to survive I don't think a 4 inch knife will work. So what… Continue

Unfortunately I don't have a dog anymore. I would really like one, and Huskys are my favourites. But both my husband and I are working and you can't leave a dog alone all day in a house as small as ours. Especially not a husky. :-)

Thanks for the warm welcome, Stephen! I really, really like your avatar, by the way. I guess it is you dog?

Thanks for the comments on the "muskrat" & the "button Lock" folder. I have not found out how many Muskrats Case handled this way. The handle design & bolster etch caught my eye so I decided I needed to add it to my muskrat collection. The Button Lock Folder I did for my son-in-law in Georgia who is a fan of Georgia Tech Aand Itried to get the handles as close to the school colors that I could find. Thanks again.
