CF and S90V and box wine…

Nice. That's a Warren Osborne design. I have one of his dress knives in my collection, you can clearly see the relation:

That’s very classy.  That’s the kind of knife you pull out at a dinner party when someone asks you to cut something and they’re like “Whaaaat?!?!” and you’re like “This old thing?  I scrape paint with this.”

The knife is awesome and it made me fall in love with mother-of-pearl, which is impossible to photograph well unfortunately.

What kind of dinner parties do you go to?

I call them dinner parties.  I've also heard them referred to as "AA Meetings."  Potato - Pot_a_to…

In the spirit of sharing, I’ve been going through my knife box and pulled out these two little cutters by Fred Perrin. I am a big fan of his knives because of their performance, simplicity, and value. His knives are a bargain in the world of customs and he is a generally nice guy to deal with. That being said, I’d be pretty scared if he ever got pissed off [emoji15]

If you cant even see the edge you know it’s sharp!

I've been browsing knife webshops & forums a lot the last few days…. I don't really expect civil unrest, but then again nobody ever expect it until it rushes a you... Getting a few pieces in the next couple weeks...

@neph93:

Maybe of interest to followers if this thread. My wife’s cousin lives outside of Alesund in the south west of Norway and taught himself knife-making three years ago. He’s making some interesting stuff…

Very nice!

I’d bet a case of beer there will be civil unrest…

Cant remember if I shared this one but here it is again. The Gambler’s Vest Bowie by Craig Camerer with a coffin handle, damascus fittings, and a W2 blade with hamon.

Got my first spyderco recently, UKPK. Also featured is a black fox bean and A Wright. UK legal carry requires slip joint, under 3 inch cutting blade, non threatening appearance, and a police officer that interprets the law liberally!

Going through some spring cleaning over the weekend and got reacquainted with this beauty. For background, Jimmy Lile was a US-based knifemaker who was asked by Sylvester Stallone to make the knives for the first two Rambo films. This is the 1st version from the movie First Blood.

[JDelage]

Very nice. Is that a custom version?

Jimmy made 13 of the original and half of those went to Stallone. The remainder are in private collections and run about $50k each. This version is Jimmy's design but made in partnership with custom knifemaker Vince Ford in a 100-piece run.

Very cool. Thank you.
