Thanks for giving all the details slingshot, I appreciate it. It is a beautiful collection :)

I was confused on the Fairbairn Applegate folder. I had recognized it for a Fairbairn Applegate and since Boker makes many of their fixed blade dagger variants had assumed that these folders too were made by Boker. I think Moin has bought one of these recently too!

It is always good to know another person with similar interests.

Rajat, must tell you these folders are built like Tanks and superb build quality. Chief has the first production run of this folder which is quite a collectible. I am itching to have the second bevel sharpened too, like a true blooded combat dagger but did'nt get the time to. Check this video out by Nutfancy, you will get the idea.

PICTURE HEAVY - Some Knives in my collection

Post by slingshot » Mon Jan 07, 2013 10:55 am

My collection has grown a bit. All thanks to some of the good people here at IFG. I have been pottering about with the camera and been taking some pictures. Am adding some new images here for you all. Will keep adding new pictures everyday. Today, I am sharing three new blades with you.
BK4.jpg
The BK4 Machax is a wonderful camp knife. Inspired by the Khukuri, it has its own identity. The angled forward cant is very interesting.
bk7a.jpg
BK7B.jpg
BK7.jpg
The BK 7 is a big blade. This forum has already been introduced to this blade by Moin. This is still encased in its protective coating. I am not going to strip it off. The BK 7 is a good camp knife, though I am sure that this will be a great fighting knife too. The clip point blade makes this a classic bowie shaped blade with the heft of a cleaver as well as allowing a cut and thrust. Of course the Bowie has the beautiful S guard that this one doesnt have. But this is a formidable weapon and light enough to carry for a camping trip.
Puma Hunter.jpg
The Puma Hunter is a beautiful blade. This one is my daughters first fixed blade knife. It is just perfect for youngsters and even though the handle is a bit small for my hands, I like the feel of this too.

Oohhh Mama !!!! The BK4 is from the lastest batch. The coating on these new beckers is thick and grainy like the Esee's and the logo is lase etched. How's the sheath of the Bk4 ?

P.S: The pics are really nice, Ansel Adams meets Atul Kasbekar feel to them :mrgreen: Post pics of the rest of the blades chief...

Cold Steel Khukri Machete, very nice.

That's a Dark Ops Interceptor, that's a USD 200 + Startrek meets Alien knife, you brought it from Chinese Website or from the US ? The serrations on the swedge appear different than what's on the standard production model.

Don't know how the US Special Operations Command SOCOM allowed these charlies to put their logo on this knife :)

Here's the link to Dark Ops Knives, for those not familiar.
