Thanks to IFG, now I understand what knives I have, so if there is any questions about my humble collection. Feel free to bother me :) :)
Last but not the least, before IFG happened to me , a knife was just a knife for me. But now knife is the knife for me

cheers and regards :D :D :D

Welcome to the Club :mrgreen: Edged Weapons are Edged Weapons Indeed :mrgreen:

Awesome, Awesome cutlery :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: May you collection grow by leaps and bounds. I can identify the Kabar, The Esplanada and the CS Recon Folder(Superb Blade :) , built like a tank, wish I had one), the wire saw/chainsaw blade, bundles of 550 Para Cord, which are the other folders ?

The two fixed blades look like Manish Market/Heera Panna buys :mrgreen: (the Large one with the Olive Drab handles looks probably like a Nieto or a Muela ?? Saleh ?? looking at the blade geometry and the sheath, but not sure) :D

The Lansky's is a very wise investmemnt that will serve you for years. Instead of using the 600 grit stone on the blade, wrap and tape a 1200 grit polish paper or higher on the fine hone and spend some time polishing the edge and you will get a beautiful razor sharp hair popping edge.... :D Beleive me teh edge will be scary sharp on Aus8 blades like the Cold Steel Recon Tanto

Would'nt know much about the fire arms in the pic.... :oops:

Heartiest Congratulations :)

P.S: Have received and email that some of our blades are being dispatched, fingers crossed mate :)

Regards
Moin.

The Espanlanda looks huge compared to even the full sized Kabar . Can you post a pic against a rule or a tape so we can get an idea of the size. Also post some closeups of the lock, thumbtud etc. I doubt one handed deployment will be possible in such a huge folder ?

Excellent and enviable collection there only32owner. You seem to like clip-point and tanto blades more. A little info on the folders other than the Cold Steel Recon Tanto would be much appreciated. Which one among the folders do you EDC? And what's that giant folder? I doubt it would be much sturdy considering the size and geometry of the blade. The clip point looks ravaging though! Is it a frame-lock?

The Bowie with OD handle seems to be a Nieto.

The ammunition looks like .32 short colt. Could not identify the snub-nose revolver. :oops:

@Moin: Same here mate, eagerly waiting to possess the CS Recon. What a beautiful blade for EDC!

Don't know much about knives but the ammo is 22lr and the revolver looks like a 22 to me. With combat grips nice!

Or maybe it's the rifle and the snub nose is a 32. Pls shed some light :)

Very nice collection indeed.

Whoa!!!!!!
Thats one hell of a collection!!!

What is that green bag in pentagonal shape for?
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger

Thaks all ,
Friends is there any antidote to get rid of this euphoria :) :)
Soon I'll be kicked out of my home.
Whenever I am at home ,I am found with either knives, AR or like a kid reading IFG.
Previously I use to call my wife to be with me, Now she drags me in bedroom and says its time to sleep.
Great to be an IFGian, always a boy :D :D

Regards.

PS. will answer in detail tomorrow, oh my God I am being drageed...................... :lol: :lol:

It is a US Army Entrenching tool (a.k.a folding shovel).
The Green plastic cases usually had clips to hook to US "Alice" gear.

It wold be similar to this: http://www.supplydump.com/us-military-tri-fold-shovel

We at IFG are quite lucky that we have found out our objects of pleasure and help ourselves mutually to enhance our pleasure!
Most of the people in this competition-stirred world run after something that they think makes them happy and later find out to their despair that it does not make them happy afterall!
