Wow Tuffy, really nice pieces! You've actually had the 2.75" pieces re-scaled? I would have never even thought of that. Great idea. That can be no easy task. I've added a few 2.75" key chains. I usually add 1 or 2 to any order coming from Austria...

Nice little collection yourself, where do you get them from? Minis have always been my favorite.

Really nice 4.5"ers Tuffy. Angelo still has the 2.75" key chains and a few 4.5"ers available. He (SKM) just did a new run of 5.5"ers as well.
Here's my only 4.5" with 2- 5.5"ers....

Hi Everyone,
Wow! Great collections of key chain knives.
T4L, I really like the knife at the very top and the knife just above the orange scaled knife from your first photo.
The key chains are one of my favorite style knife. Here are a few of mine. I’ll look in my sock drawer for the others and my non-key chain minis.

Hi Chris,
I wish; I could open a museum. I’d invite collectors to exhibit their collections. Imagine a collection of 33 cm RP’s. I can.

Oops! I shot rwo knives backside up.

Thank you. John

Don't think inox is a brand, think it means stainless if I remember correctly.

Ya know, these little SKM 5.5" jobs kinda piss me off :wink:. They're inexpensive and super-tiny, and yet, they manage to make them arrow-straight, centered, and tight, with no tip-peaking and no blade-play. Wish I could say the same for a few of my pricey full-sized knives with banana curves, wobbly blades, razor-edged pins, or their points practically hanging out of their handles. It's all rather confusing to a noob like me.
