    @The bomb. The shop I bought my first one from is only 15mins from work, just getting there within their business hours is the problem

    @Micky Duck Now you've got me hankering after another Bushman's Friend knife.... Will go well together when hunting with the old 303... Memo to self "I don't need another knife, I don't need another knife, I don't need another knife..... "

    Not a model I make very often but one of my favorites, A Copperhead model, I enjoy the simple lines on this model.
    Honeycomb handles that have different colors in them as you move the knife , G10 bolsters liners and pins . Satin finish stainless blade.

    Quite possibly your most beautiful hunting knife to date

    That is simply stunning.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Thought victory and the mob that makes the nz green river knives were in cahoots?

    I've seen the Victory one advertised with the sheath and steel in shops; not directly from Victory though

    My Wee Necker,

    My first custom bought 16 years ago from US. Markings of the maker is gone and for the life of me I just can't remember who was it and what steel was used, someone on the Bladeforums. Used it for some kitchen/camp jobs then I kind of forgot about it. Still razor sharp, sheath is getting a bit frail. Size is 2.5inches blade and 2.5 inches handle (Some kind of Micarta). In need of some TLC.

    Boar hunter, custom made, using rail track, forged blade. Cheap, but it `s good for cutting meat from bones, rips.

    My ESEEs. First one up is an ESEE6. Took this one in exchange of an ESEE3 from a very dear friend. This was supposed to be my apocalypse knife all kitted with a Maxpedition pack and a fire steel. Who knew apocalypse will be caused by a virus not by zombies

    A Viper in 1084. Stabilized Pohutakawa with dual layer micarta . G10 liners and pins.
    For a Tasmanian hunter in NZ on some guided hunts wanting to take a knife with some NZ timber in it to remind him of his time here.
