Seeing Pitfighter's incredible collections of F/S daggers made me think of the family photo-op gun threads that are so enjoyable.
Thought I'd crib that notion and see what kind of like-manufacturered or like purposed knives fellas here have amassed
I'll start with my Robert Parrish knives. I bought the most used of the larger two shown in '85 after seeing a couple of knives that this wonderful maker had comped to our Scuba-locker in 5th Group at Ft. Bragg.
After that, there were several pilgrimages to his shop outside of Asheville, N.C. over the years. It made for a great day or two motorcycle trip to take in the Smokey Mountain Parkway too.
Though initially a bit stuffy - as is the right of any custom maker of any industry - once he knew you to not be a groupie or time waster - he was quite gracious with his time.
Another grouping I'll put up is a passle of First-Special-Service-Force/SF oriented knives I've glommed onto.
