Newest additions to my ever-burgeoning collections. Knives first, this makes 217 total...so far... bottom three are spring-assists and about 8" long each. Top left I just got today, top right is made by a friend of mine, razor sharp. Lighters, yes all of them function, most have several features. The Mercedes and BMW keychains have LED spotlights in them. The rocket ship has an LED flashlight out the top. The pistol has a fully functioning laser sight on top. Also some spout colored flames - BMW is a blue flame, Merc is a green flame, gun is a red flame, etc. I know, weird thing to collect, but I have probably 80 or so now.

Ken I actually have a fixed blade I'm thinking of sending your way. It's not shown above, forgot to add it in, made in Pakistan, with Pakistan quality, meaning the wood scales suck and the blade guard is crooked. Thought would make a beautiful knife with stone, should I cut off the scales or leave them on for you?? I'll PM you the specifics.

I keep my "favorite right now" knife close at hand on my desk, and this one I just bought last week is just beautiful. Nice black blade, beautiful burl wood scales, seriously sharp. The stone it's sitting on is exactly 4.5" wide, so this knife is just over 8" long when open. Fits my hand perfectly. Most are bought with an eye to replacing the scales one day, but this one is remaining as is, too pretty to touch.

Awwww damnit! Excuse my french, my wife just called me to tell me she's just been laid off. By damn, when it rains it pours. She's carrying our benefits as I'm working as a consultant and she worked for an insurance company. Have a daughter with CHARGE syndrome and her medical bills are anywhere from $20k to $100k per year... well, time to tighten up the belt again and try to find some benefits.... egads.......
