I make knives… so basically collect expensive wood and Damascus and San Mai Steel from some of the best makers around the globe.

But I don’t actually collect knives, just buy a lot for research purposes.
Only this week…
Pure research 🧐
You should put up a thread with some of your projects. Ever do any kitchen knives?

@STANDY Do you export to UK? I have a few Atwood pieces.

Yes have a few sent to the UK.

Atwood used to be big in the EDC game (crazy collectors and pretty high prices on the secondary market IIRC), haven't seen much of he’s gear lately. Just looked and see he is still pretty active. And making mugs also 👍

Snap-together plastic scale models of aircraft...
I own two high-quality, vintage metal airplane models. Here's my favorite, a DC-7C, with Sabena livery:

Snap-together plastic scale models of aircraft... In the late 1990s and up to 2012 passengers were offered these onboard the airliner You were flying, so one could get the actual airplane. These were low-cost but superb models (US $ 20.00 as I recall) but nowadays a rarely seen thing onboard aircraft.
The SwissAir DC-4 is a more recent model which as I got as a gift...
.
FedEx sent me this good one when they stuffed me around…
