Does anybody else on here collect Knives?

I have always been interested in 'pocket' knives, but in recent years have started to get quite the collection.

I mainly collect 'Buck' knives, but occasionally get one from another manufacturer if it catches my eye!

I mainly have folding knives, but again recently I have started to get a few fixed blade knives.

Ive got a heap of hunting knives, had them since i was a kid (grew up on a farm with an old man crazy about hunting) My favorite one would be my fixed blade survival knife with a compass on the handle that screws off (inside there is fishing line and a little hook, a flint and some matches)...... I wouldn't say its a collection but always loved the look of them.....

Hi

I have 2 pocket knifes. My dad gave me one which he had which is a proper Swiss army knife with about 20 attachments like a sprewdrived 2 knives, compass, scissors, etc.

And I found one in the shed and was told I could kepp it. Its real sharp as well so if anyone is planning to come and try to steal my Chalmers collecting, watch out!!!

I have gone pretty mental on Ebay the last couple of days and bought a whole heap more (knives).

Used to collect swords, still got a few of them, only knife of note I've got's a Muela bowie.

PS don't be a bogan and carry them round in public.

All my Buck knives are in a Buck display case, the rest are on stands in a display cabinet.
I have no intention of cutting someone, so would not carry one in public. Pretty lame thing to do!

I've got a few, but more the kitchen type! I'm a qualified chef, but longer do it for a living, but I still love using top quality chefs knives in the kitchen at home I've got about 20 different types and sizes!

I hear you there!!
It really p's me off when I am at someone elses house and they are using a tiny blunt little knife to chop up vegetables!! The Brits seem to always do this?? not sure why?
Or if you are helping prep stuff, with a knive that lost it's edge years ago!

When my folks came out from the UK last year, they were very un-nerved watching me prep vege with a large knife?
