Some of my knife collection
Loukides 1095 steel. This is my hunting knife. Gutted, skinned, deboned 6 deer, 2 goats, 1 sheep
Another two of his knives
One of his bowie knives in 5160
Pocket Knives
The new old timers leave a lot to be desired. Compared to boker,buck at the same price point it is depressing.
Today’s wear
My vBob and mag, victorinox officer’s automatic, queen canoe folder, GEC bull lock, and 1935 esterbrook. The esterbrook still has tones of ink, when it runs out I will rinse it and move on to the next for a while. The queen knife had a bit of pitting on the slip joint area and spine of the blades when it ariver yesterday. Careless finger prints. I cleaned them off with the 240 grit rust erasers. Oiled everything for today’s use.Addiction is more appropriate than fetish! If I live long enough, would like to be a one (or two knifemaker collector). While I have currently have about 115 knives in my collection, my favorite ones to collect are knives made by Alan Davis, out of Boerne, TX. He makes all of his knives by hand, and all are pretty much unique. One of my favorites is this one. I have been taking my time on refining the edge, as I want to make absolutely no mistakes with it! Scales are obviously Mammoth bark. Bolsters are M3 metal composite. The blade is a 3-bar composite Damascus made by Rob Calcinore (in Royersford, PA) which Alan nitre blued. The material used in this Damascus is: 01, 1095, 1080, mild steel, and nickel.
I have a bunch of clip knives. Having lived in CT and traveled ma,ct,ny,NJ inside the pocket knives are near a necessity. I like thinner profile clip knives the big profile zt, emersons, are a thing of my past along with the autos.

That is mildly stunning. Just mildly, on the border of not stunning.
Wow!

I love how the blue liners ignite the blade. Beautiful bluish hue. Gorgeous.
