Clyde

These threads are not good for ny wallet, now I want some battle blades!

Nice hardware, Clyde.

Simple fix learn to save for what you are addicted to:

Lets see: roaches like old moldy food, dead animals, poop, and being a PITA:eek::eek::eek::eek::D

I like the Blade on OSS a lot, looks like it would stick real easy.

Here are some of mine.

Very nice DrHenley!!:)

The Japanese Officers Katana in my picture is an original war souvenir bring back. The gentleman who brought it back was moving and was throwing out his items. He also had a complete Japanese uniform that I did not want..........man I can kick myself now for not taking that also!!!

Oh WOW. That was a great find! My son collects katanas, but none are originals. He gave me the Willow Leaf Sabre. I believe that was the ancestor of the modern Western sabre. It was used by both infantry and cavalry during the Qing and Ming dynasties.

Thanks to jmlutz and his fine knife Collection I went and ordered another knife to add to my Battle Ready Knifes, Thanks Mike for the info................


It is on its way..............


Clyde

You are very welcome,I think you will be very happy with it. I love mine, it was one of the first really nice knives I bought.

Here's my family with the new Laredo at the top.

Andy you better send them to me you are to young to have sharp knifes, you better go buy a couple butter knifes:eek::D


Clyde

NamVet,

Who is the maker of the Bowie on the upper left of your OP? It has nice dimensions to it. Looks like it could be very fast handling. Really like it.

Careful with Andy. He is somewhat handy with those knives. Pulls one from the right, then when you are attending to it, here comes another one from the left. Ouch!

Nice stuff!

Always wanted one of those tiny switchblades, where did you get yours?

-scott

scott, I actually found that one on ebay a few years ago when they were still allowed for sale there.:)

Here are some more of my Battle Ready Knifes:

I don't know how I missed this. I appreciate the offer. But it looks like you have more knives than you can handle. I'm will to help you out by running through my Sharpmaker to help you keep the edge on them nice.

It's one of my original obsessions, but I only started collecting knives when I could afford quality.

Of course, you've studied the hand to hand techniques more than me, so you've got that on me. I downloaded Applegate's book recently and planned to start reading it during my vacation.

Beautiful knife collection(s) Guys. Obviously I am drawn to the US Navy Ka-bar.

Jealous......
