Skulls are legal to own. I have a couple. One Pops has. It would freak most people out having that staring at you in your bedroom, but she’s not normal. And collects skulls. And not normal.

You can buy them quite freely online. And as long as they are respected, it’s OK to trade. Many people leave their skulls to science or medical use. Not so much now as as replicas are very good and more robust when handling.

Oooh. Discounting the above, it would still have to be film knives. I have pretty much all of the main weapons from the next Kingsman film out in December. The Kings Man. It’s an utter blade fest. If it is a success then they’ll be worth loads View attachment 68896View attachment 68898View attachment 68899


Favourite knife has to be this one. I’ve got one in scandi too which Stu made with a presentation box. So I’ve decided to make this a user.

But then again. In terms of favourite AND value. This one is special.

Why do I have a vision of a bushcraft version of Abby Sciuto ? :)

One thing I really want though is an accurate Crocodile Dundee Bowie.
That is the knife I lusted over as a lad as I crawled around the undergrowth pretending to be John Rambo with my cheap Chinese hollow handle survival knife

I think most people our age did that. John J is responsible for so many people getting into this lark. Paul Kirtley is the same. The Survival Aids catalogue, Wilkinson Sword survival knife and Survival, Weapons and Techniques magazine.

I'm guessing you're around the mid to late 40's age bracket then Jonathan?

Fifty. I was 12 when First Blood came out. Saw it on VHS when it was released at the local rental. And then we all went out and bought Lofty’s book.
Ha, almost the same! I was 10. My uncle bought me Lofty's book for Christmas that year...was my bible, still is now. Mine is still in pristine condition. I could re write that book to you haha. I wonder how many of the original copies are still kicking around today.
