Thought I'll pat my ego with a new thread. Some knife candy for your gents. I purchased a large number of knives, and sold a large number of them, after moving to the US. The ones I have now, are keepers, and I have found them to be extremely useful tools. I have to control not to overspend, since its so easy to go overboard with all these shiny objects around. :D

Fixed blades
From L to R: ESEE Candiru (1095), Swamp Rat Swamp Warden (SR101), Swamp Rat Rodent Solution (SR101), Survive Knives GSO 4.1 (M390), ZT 0121 (S30V), Boker Gnome, Craig Wheatley small neck knife
