Recently had to do an inventory for the movers insurance....

Thought I'd all lay them out for a group shot. Missing are a Billipp, Fowler, Watanabe Nakiri, Misono Honesuki and Laseur Boning knife

I'm in awe of your collection.
Is the Cris Anderson an extra tall?
 
Why?...... What?...... When?..... How?.....:O

Amazing!
 
Picture no work for me 😭😭😭😭😢😢😢
 
Nice collection. I think I recognise about 50%. You gotta list them out for us.
 
Wow, impressive! Where do you store all of that? Would love to get details on who made what.

I'm extremely jealous of your Dalmans!
 
Dude, DAMN. What a picture. And what a collection!

What type of camera did you use to take it?
 
Alterwisser - looks like your "join" date was Feb 2015 ... any idea of how many knives (or any?) you had at that point ...

Just trying to figure out how quickly the disease spreads in it's host so I can better understand my own prognosis ... judging by the extent of your current "symptoms" I am really looking forward to getting worse! ... LOL

Absolutely Beautiful Collection! Good luck with the move & relocation!!!

Hmmmmm.....

Good question.

I moved to the US in 2012 and had 3 decent J-knives.

I think I bought a Takeda Bunka in 2013 and two Masakages in 2014.


The rest was since then ....
 
Alterwisser - I'm very happy for you! Based on my quick calc's here's what you may look forward to (Caveat/Disclaimer: I am not a knife maker/seller/expert so you should consult your personal one for a better assessment!);

By the end of next year (2018) you should have 594 knives from your current value of 63. Of course I haven't taken into consideration your making your own knives which is definitely a sign that the disease is really starting to take hold so you may have a 30 ton forge in the near future as well. In fact - if you are starting a "custom list" I wouldn't mind getting on that now ....

Also you might need a bigger kitchen!

That's truly funny. It's also a very scary projection - perhaps a little too exponential for comfort!
