Similar situation but not as many. My addiction has been guns.

 

It is nice to get them out once in a while and finger fuck them. Good for insurance purposes to have a photographic record.

 

I also have many WW I and WW II rifles bought when I held a C&R license. I have a corresponding bayonet for each military rifle. About 25 in all, some duplicates such as 5 M-1's.

How are you guys with antique knives? I'm not really into knives but this one came to me as part of a large native american artifact collection. The maker mark is a simply "S" which I assume stands for Sheffield. It's all made of brass with a marlin spike on the end. I'm guessing it's a Civil War era artillery knife for guys who loaded gun powder into cannons since the brass would reduce the chance of a spark. Anybody?

Never saw anything like it but another guess, because of the marlinspike, is that it may have been a sailors knife because the marlinspike figures prominently with tying rope and often used on tall ships. Since the ships also had cannons the brass and marlinspike would fit for an armed sailing vessel.

That makes sense. I was thinking they might have used the spike to open kegs or bags of powder, but I guess any saiing ship with cannons would have to have been careful with fire and sparks.

Just thought the below link on Damascus Steel might be of interest. The making of Damascus knives and swords is truly an art form. Knife makers must pass stringent tests to become certified as Master Bladesmith's.

This is the type of knife I collect. Clovis culture, 9.000 to 15,000 years old from south/central California.

This one is roughly 2,000 years old. It had a wooden or bone handle that has long since rotted away, but the tar they used to attach it to the handle remains. Also from south/central California.
