Hey Gecko how's your CS knife?? Have you used it yet?? I have a late xmas gift on its way, clip point leatherneck Attachment 53953

But I'm hoping to get one of these aswell in the near future
Natchez bowie
Attachment 53954
Marauder
Attachment 53955
Boar collector
Attachment 53956

I don't know if you guys remember but I bought a sanjia and received a Colombia river knife anyway got to use it in the field a couple of weeks ago and it performed brilliantly, stayed sharp after hitting some bone, skin and dirt. For a knife under $10 its awesome haha

My new (and first) knife, probably common as hell but I'm quite happy it and the quality of it.

Hopefully more to come, I see a lot of you have quite a decent collection of them!

Love those Kabars

The USMC KaBars are great. I have an identical 1 in pic but it is half the size and is awesome.

I bought it on whim, honestly surprised at the build quality on it. Haven't had too much of a chance to use it yet though.

Love that Natchez Bowie , named after Jim Bowies brother' "see edit"
that Boar collector looks a hell of a lot like United Cutlery's Highlander

Ka-Bar have a great name with the signature stacked leather handle

Edit;; Jim Bowie's brother was Rezin , Natchez is a town
Pic is Jim Bowies brother "actual" knife made by James Black the blacksmith

I love the CS Taipan.... Amazing blade! The look on the War Offices face when she saw it was priceless!

I love the look of the Natchez bowie! massive knife....

I think that both OD, 3D and I have the same CRKT knife you got and if its the one I think, it's a bloody good and, IMO, a very under-rated knife!

@ Jimmyboyjr4.... you certainly can't go wrong with a Ka-Bar as your first knife! I don't think I've seen a cr@p one yet. Good purchase mate!

Whats everyones take on this I dont think its that old
well not 1850 anyway,I reckon the IXL is a reference to size not a date
Plus back in 1850 would you worry about etching a work knife, I have a few knives from the early 1800s
and they are plain Janes IMO

check out video especially guy and the dummy RPML

Tough call on that Bowie 3D.... It looks the goods but, as you said, did they etch their blades back then? I don't ever recall seeing an etched blade, growing up... I keep thinking about 'Pawn Stars' and their experts saying "Sorry, but this knife was made in 1980...."
