Anyone else collect knives?

I just started down this path. After seeing the scales on this BladeHQ exclusive Civivi Elementum I knew I had to own it. I’m sure there will be more added soon

Linen Micarta, G10 liners and brass tubes for pins

Bit of hand sanding and shaping to go.

don't consider myself a collector but do like them and have a few.
there's a folder in my pocket pretty much every day.
this otter anchor has been my daily for sheesh, over 2 years! time flies.
not expensive, easy open, nice knife.

I have a few knives ( about 12) and seldom pass by a nice Sheffield made knife if I see one at a boot sale for a couple of pounds. I don't spend a lot on them though. My daily carry knife is a Douk Douk.

No, it's relatively solid. Has a rachet pivot that locks fully extended.

(My thumb is pressing down)

I do believe Keith Richards always has one of these on hand and has done ever since John Lennon was killed.

Have several knives, most of them in traditional Norwegian style, both factory- and custom made. In addition some folders, the edc is a handy Vict
Victorinox Swiss Army knife.

The folders here are Browning, Gerber, Kershaw, Victorinox and a little Viking theme decorated silver grip gentlemans pocket knife.

Then a little brass and bronze gathering. The watch is a Archimede 42 Pilot, the knifes are a Helle Dyre Vaa (with the knob), the other one I made my selves some years ago.

The various non- kitchen knives that I own. The three Case folders from top, a 1980 Trapper that I bought myself for my 40th birthday back in December, the trapper that was the last knife my dad ever bought for himself back in 94, it's part of my EDC, and a Stockman (1978) that used to be my EDC knife. The three fixed blades from left, my Case hunting knife(1982), my Gerber MKII fighting knife that my dad bought new (at a jeweler of all places) back in 1975, and my Gerber MKI boot knife that is part of my EDC.

so this thread got me digging a bit.
here's another that i carried for a bit, nice knife, but ended up in the drawer due to the slow-close requirement:

here's another that i carried briefly, it's a beauty but found it not so easy to open and didn't really care for the blade stop in the middle, whatever that's called.
