wow, I like your collection...Im also fairly new to collecting knives, bought 2-3 over the last 15 years and then 15 new blades in the last 2 months!!! I like your twitch, its missing in my collection. I didnt post my fixed blades; I have a Ka-Bar Becker Necker, a CS Tanto mini-tac, CS Tanto Koban and my new San Mai III CS Tanto Recon...saving them for another post.

Im super addited to knife and light photothreads!!

that lil' chap is my brand spanking new SpyderCo Ladybug III with FRN scales...its a beautful little blade, sharp and well built...it will live on my key ring as a backup EDC.

Im also heavily into lights here my piddly collection:

I began collecting American made folders in 1980s and only photographed a few. Here's a sample.

Buck 500 series

Cincinnati area, but lots of travel
Benchmade & Chris Reeve (have more Chris Reeve - not pictured) - most going up for sale in coming weeks. Won't sell the blue one (third from left bottom).

Not a sales thread - but if you see something you like...., most are non-serrated blades. No boxes, lost in moves..

Nice collection! I especially like the old-school SOG Stingray you got there; they sure don't make them like that anymore.

thanks!! yes my SOG stingray is still the pride of my collection...the sound it makes when it locks back is amazing...its in terrific condition...none of the knives I have now seem to have the same tough build quality...but they certainly have more technology to do the same job...ie blade construction/composition.

I don't know if this already can be called a collection,
I just gather together knives that I like.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of knives that I like.:broke:

Here we go:

Thanks soniclove, very nice pictures and knives you have there.

As for your question,
the three folders in this row are cheap knives from Kaidomain.
However, the red one (SKU: S006932) is of decent quality and makes a nice keyring knife.

I don't know anything about the 'SOG', I ordered the black mini folder of the
series mentioned above and they sent me the wrong knife.
The quality of the 'SOG' is rather poor, a lot of blade play and the lock back lever don't fit well.
Could be a fake, but I don't have any other SOG knives to compare,
so I can't tell for sure.

cheers Tom,

Im surprised as I have a twitch II and its really well built, opens like a rocket, is super sharp and has very little blade play.

Im off to Germany later in the year and Im starting to wonder if there'll be opportunities to buy some more knives...I guess nothing like the USA in terms of shopping for EDC kit!

How's the build quality of that Zing, compared to your Spydie and Benchmade? I've been thinking about picking up an orange one.
