Good to hear. Maybe A.G. will pop in and see your report.

Well I just got word from my wife that there's a package with my name on it at the post office waiting to have import duties paid on it. I'm excited because I think it's going to be my Cowry-X one hand knife done by A.G. Russell!

Well it's here. The blade is gorgeous and I love the one piece construction of it.

What I don't love however is the large amount of both vertical and horizontal bladeplay. Not sure what to think about that.

Fixed the side to side play by ever so slightly tightening the pivot.

The tiny bit of up and down play I can live with.

Now....will this be a user or a collector....I kind of want it to be a user.

Definitely would make a great user I love mine.

Also the Cowry-X is way shape so watch those fingers mine have pently of scares from not being carefull.  Just got bit the other day by a new Cold Stell the lock was way tight when new working great now but it gave me a little bite.

Also has everyone seen the new boot knives from AG he came out with three types of the same model from China interesting knives has anyone got one yet?

Nope, I always wait ordering from A.G. untill someone I know is travelling from the states. Those boot knives kind of make me want to buy some boots......

Arkansas is a good place to buy boots

HAH! I'll remember that next time I'm there (maybe next year or so!)

Well I'm excited! The company just posted the 2013 Texas Ranger on Facebook, this is the prototype:

Looks great definitely on my buy list.

Great Design.  I like the swedge on that one

Well....it's on sale this week lol!

Added some pictures of this one as a discussion:

What do you guys think?

Well I finally got my missing Texas Ranger. The 2008 version. I'll take (and post) pictures sometime later.

Took a couple of pictures of the whole group. Thought those might need a spot in here as well.

Alex, I spent the Easter Holidays with my Grand Daughters in Arkansaw. We didn't make it far enough north to get to Mr. AG.'s place but I wish we had. We spent a few days at Lake Catherine, just south of Hot Springs. We had a great time, the mountains and lakes are so nice. I did find a Knife shop in Hot Springs and bought a couple of knives. Hey, I love your collection there, Texas Rangers. If they were just Louisiana blades, instead.LOL

Hahaha, I know how you feel. I just really liked the series.

Mr. AG. really has designed a fine line of knives, to see them altogether really shows them off.

It's only a little perseverance so far ;-). The series was only started 5 years ago. And I bought my first one in it 3 years ago.

So I've only bee trying to get them complete for the past 3 years. But still, I'm happy that I got them so far. Still, can't wait for this years version.

Steve,

Please post a photo of where it is marked A. G. Russell.

Thanks,\\

A. G..

japan? interested..

Sorry, Steve

The only A. G. Russell Knives not marked A. G. Russell were marked A. G. R. or Bertram (Hen & Rooster.)  There are NO unknown A. G. Russell Knives

well that is good to know!

That means we have a mystery on our hands

A well done comparison of some fantastic knives

Thanks Jan. They are very nice indeed.

I finally got my Titanium Framelock Spearpoint yesterday!

And seriously....the fit, finish and materials are such that I'm surprised that A.G. can sell them for this pricepoint! Really! I've seen knives at 3x the price that this one is that weren't done as well.

Thank you to Ms. Goldie and to Phil.  I had a great time at your booth today and learned a good deal about the newest Frame Lock.  Check it out in the Blade Show 2013 discussion

That Skorpion looks quite nice. Somehow I really enjoy seeing the components like that. Makes me like it more than the pictures of completed knives I've seen.

And yeah, both A.G. and Goldie are great people. I'll believe you really enjoyed spending time with them with ease.

Check out the a A.G. Russell exclusive line of Queen made knives on their website!!

I wish. I only get the catalogue when I order something. mr Beachamp is a very nice guy indeed.

Bytheway someone did a really nice writeup on the Skorpion on Bladeforums:

With the Russell's show right around the corner, how many of you will be attending?  AG, do we have a list of who will be there? 

Tell RJ to take lots of Money, There will be a lot of beautifyl knives there.

Yup, and LOT's of friendly faces. Be sure to check out....well.....everyone really. Soo many cool makers and REALLY cool people.

I'd name some names....but I think most everyone there is worth a visit.

Alex, how much postage is it to get the catalog to you? Probably high.

I don't know. Really I don't. Should only be a couple of dollars perhaps. Depends on what they weigh really.

I wonder if Mr. AG. could down load it on your Email address? It might be to much to ask, I don't know. I've never down loaded any thing. lol

Robert,

Shipping tells me that it cost us $2.90 to send the regular 36 page knife catalog to Holland and $4.60 for the 56 page Christmas catalog.

A. G.

So this weekend is the Knife Event? Anyone going to take a bunch of pictures while there?

I yearn for reports!

Captured some of the pics from the Queen Facebook page about the show :)

Thanks Miss Jan, great pictures.

Good stuff. Anyone else take pictures?

The young man and women in the pictures, do they work for Queen? What's their names and position at Queen?

Anyone on here get the Hobo, that's on Mr. AG.'s Web site?

I didn't get that one Robert, but I got one a few years ago in Ram's Horn that is a beauty.

Wow, Gerald, that's a beauty. I didn't know they had offered them. I miss a lot.
