" You know, I have this bad habit....if I get a knife I like as an EDC, I have to get another as a backup! I know, I'm weird. It must be some kind of  obessive compulsive thing."

 

LOL.  That's about how my collecting started.   Got one to use and wanted a spare.  Kinda went from there.  It's very rare that I have a user that I don't have one that's put up.

Thanks J.J. It drove me nuts looking at the unfinished wood. I bought some display's for my wifes mini's and ended up staining them also. I didn't let them dry quite long enough because I had a time getting the sliding lids to open and slide.

how come when you come to this site you guys have all these great rr knives and there is no pictures it would be great to see pictures of these knives in this group....

Ivars, I have knife rolls, that RR chest, which is the only one and I have some 12" X 18" glass display cases that I use. The glass display's are the best way, but also the most expensive. I also have a lot of knife holder's that are like this. I like these the best out of roll type storage.This type folds and zips. I think it is probably just called a knife case. If you want them visible the RR chest or the glass display's are probably the best. I do like the zippered knife holders quite a bit. I got most of mine at SMKW. You might look on there website.

Glad to hear that, Craig. I need to get me one. They are nice looking. Robert, I heard on the knives live show tonight that they don't know when they will have them back. They said the factory made a mistake on the price of the first ones. Of course SMKW is in the business of selling knives. They acted like if they got more, the price would be more than what they originally sold for. It's important to buy from a reputable dealer who will take care of you. SMKW has resolved any issue I had.I'm sorry that the dealer you bought from went out of business. I always save receipts and shipping lists on mine , just in case. I think Toby emailed SMKW during the show tonight, which is what sparked Steve's response.

Comment by robert benton on November 1, 2011 at 18:12
I love mine it is a real nice knife you will love it,I got mine from a dealer who is no longer in business. i already contacted SMKW and they could not warenty it because i had no proof of purchase and the dealer went out of business which is a bummer because it was my fav EDC and everyone that i showed it to thought it was a custom costing a couple of hundred bucks
Comment by robert benton on November 1, 2011 at 18:00
