Scotchman Ive been out of sorts lately, as have a few of the people i have great respect for here. Having yourself "removed " like a bad tattoo or something seems a little extreme ,maybe things will pick up in the near future ,and you can just leave the door open to return. Seriously though I hope t...

John I really love that picklock " switchblade forum " knife by Mr Beltrame ,its just a pleasing mix of materials ,all of high quality. Lovely blade in damascus and the scales are nicely shaped and look almost like ivory ...is that just well chosen horn ? And presented in a nice display box ....Love...

Wow!! 8) JulesVane.....these are absolutely stunning knives and look superb together in the different types of scales. They look nice with any blade type but i really love the kriss and dagger blade examples top and third from top,they catch my eye first but I would gladly be the proud owner of any ...

Great button and bolster shape you chose and the horn is just right to compliment them. Thanks for sharing it Ron. gra...

Markco Thanks for posting those magnificent American autos. I have never looked into the Americans as much as i should have and to see the different types and them all laid out like that ...just stunning. A great learning tool for a layman in American switches. It is as Julesvane said really amazing...

Hombre I love the kabars but ageing them is quite difficult. I read once that the rarest earliest ka bars had a red spacer just above the guard ,this dated that particular knife to 1942. There are many forums that deal with fighting knives ,militaria that will have the info you need but ageing some ...

Dave I really love what you and Duke have accomplished with this knife. I love the stag and the guard and the blade is beautifully polished giving this knife a much more handmade look than when you first got it. Tbh i would easily miss the expendables knife if browsing through a knife catalogue but ...

Thanks whippersnapper Sammy,Dave ,JulesVane, tequiza and Bill for the kind Birthday wishes my good freinds!
I hope all of you are well .
All the best from England

JulesVane Unfortunately this smaller lever isnt mine, ,i found it whils't googling zanjan knives.Its a little beauty i agree with you. i would buy another in a heartbeat ,cool little knives and could easily be used as they are put together really well. These reddish stag handled knives look real exc...

Thanks to Ken identifying the little leverlock as one that was made in Iran, i looked them up and found it was probably made in Zanjan . I found a few lovely knives made by local craftsmen there and thought it would be good to post them here as a future source of knowledge if anyone comes across the...
