never introduced myself!

Post by drb »

Hello guys;
It occured to me that I never introduced myself here. I have always loved knives. I flipped when I saw West Side Story and saw the knife fight scene.

A few years ago a wandered into a knife shop in FT worth Tx in the stockyards. I bought my 1st switch, an 11' stag bayonet made by FB.

I came home found out they are legal in my state of florida. I then went online and found BA, talk blade etc etc. So no I have around 80 blades of all kinds.

thats my story of how I got started in "this thing of ours"!

Well then there now Mr. drb, we all have similar sad stories about how this addiction first struck. We are trying to set up a 12 Step progam, but no one can get past the First Step - Press the Button. :roll:

INTRODUCING AGAIN!

Post by drb »

Hello Jagman and friends;

I am in Dunedin fla close to tampa. The Master(pete) is not far from me!

I have a camera and will take some pic's soon.

My most interesting knife is a 1950's svoboda 11' pick made with RAMS HORN.

I also have a 1910 or so antique italian picklock. That needs cleaning and alittle restoration.

I have a good smattering of everything offered on BA except of the american made. I have 4 50's antiques, a buck conversion, 2 godfathers and 1 godson. Thats it on the American made!

I would love to have more early 1900 switches!

DRB
