Hank...so sorry this happened. I know we all feel your pain. However...we can't keep an eye out for your knives if we don't know what you have lost. If you have a link to your pics of your collection, that would help alot. You might want to check with sone of the selling sites as well. Just to put the word out. Check other knife forums. If you can let us know what you lost, we have a better chance helping out.

Best of luck finding the jerk.

Hank,

Thank you for letting us know!!  For those of you that dont know, Hanks knives are pictured here http://iknifecollector.com/photo/photo/listForContributor?screenNam...  I doubt this is all of them.  Hank can you tell us if there is anything special we should be looking for on the social and ebay networks?

Hey Hank - I know it's only been 5 days since you posted this, just curious if you have any updates....naturally we are all concerned and share your grief over the issue.

Hank, I had 5 knives taken from my home along with a small revolver. Called the police and reported, told them I had pics of all but 2 items. No one even came to talk to me, I have made several calls back but they said investigator did not have time. They said they had put the revolver on the stolen list to gun shops etc
This happened about 1 1/2 months ago and I knew who had taken them. So much for our system here.

Guess I'll have to keep everything locked up and hidden all the time. A little senseless not to enjoy though.

Hank,

I am curious to know if your knife collection was the only thing(s) the thieves took? In other words, was it specifically your knife collection that was targeted? Or was it just part of a larger haul?

Either way it sucks! But I'm thinking that if it was just the knives then the thief or thieves was more than likely someone who you had showed your collection to, or someone who knew that you collected knives. That usually means a "friend." I say that from experience. *sadly*

I hope you and Bob both get your stuff back. Good luck, you guys!

We do keep 90% of the collection locked up  to get that safe out you would have to take part of a room and a foundation.  It is a shame.

Brian, I dont know about that.  Who would know where you live, if your knives are there, ect.  They would be more likely to be someone that has seen it in the house than on line IMO

Thanks Ron, don't expect that to happen but there's always hope. Just be careful if you have contractors working around un attended.
