Thanks Sammy. Seeing so many older pieces in great condition really show how long they’ve been collected and taken care of.

BA got alot of us started, don't seem like people are as interested in knives as there were 10 to 15 years ago. I heard Stu even got out of the knife business.

Good looking piece. Congrats on the grab. I have a couple of BO/BC's but they're in a minority.

Chris
Was catching up on posts i missed whilst away and spotted this one of yours.


Great to see you got your hands on a lovely example of the BOBC.I know you were after one .

I love the cracked ice scales design on switchblades It looks great and always seems better fitted on the older knives. .

You are filling the gaps nicely on examples of the different types of switchblades, and have wisely got each example in great shape .

You have a collection to be proud of there Chris
Congratulations and good luck in future buys .

Thank you for the always kind words Ian. Yes, I'm trying to capture a bit of this and that. Yet to acquire an A.G.A. Campolin 10" Fishtail Picklock. I'll be fishing for one of those lol.
