Re: My three Italian MOP's

Hello Tom19176,
Shooting them took me twice as long. Lighting, obviously is the key and I think a white background works for me.
Thank you, Tom19176, for taking a look at my MOPs and your comment,

Re: My three Italian MOP's

Hello panner,
MOP has the classy elegant look to it. I kind of think of it as the knife you would carry in your tuxedo pocket.
Thank you, panner, for taking a look and your comment,

Re: My three Italian MOP's

Hello Lars,
If it wasn't for you and Free asking of a group shot I most likely wouldn't have thought of doing it. I'm glad you like the photos as I have said before MOP isn't the easiest to shoot.
Thank you, Lars, for taking time to take a look at the 3 MOPs and your comment,

Hello Panzerfaust,

Re: My three Italian MOP's

Hello Razor_54, The quality of the new Campolin 2011 stiletto is top notch. It has a good feel to it; nicely balanced. It fires strong. I recommend it in any style, horn or stag. It's not the typical stiletto design, but once in your hand you'll feel how well it's made. You can use it as a working k...

Hello maceco,
They weren't easy to shoot. I'm lucky they came out as good as they did. They look great in the sun shine.

Hello HDC,
I'm glad you like them. I was having lighting problems. I'm thinking of reshooting them and replacing the photos.

Hello Rubin,

Re: Rizzys and Korean clones

When it comes to knives, I'm knife addict. If it were possible, I would have overdosed a long time ago; fortunately it can't be done. If there were a Knife Anonymous organization like AA I'd be the president.
