I was gonna go through you your list in detail, but then thought better of it!!!!

Smart! I instead went through YOUR list in detail, getting a headache! There are some models on your list that you have listed twice. From your list, I added the following:

Leek Spider Web / Black blade (1660SPCKT)
Leek Black handle Stonewashed blade (1660SWBLK)
Leek Orange handle (1660OR)
Leek Olive Green handle / Sandvik 7C27MO2 stainless steel (1660OLC27)
Leek Olive Green handle / Sandvik 7C27MO2 stainless steel serrated (1660OLC27ST)
Leek Sandvik 7C27MO2 stainless steel (1660C27)
Leek Sandvik 7C27MO2 stainless steel serrated (1660C27ST)
Leek Black handle Damascus blade (1660DAMCKT)
Leek Black Smoke Snap-On (1660BWSO)
Leek Black Boron Coated serrated blade (1660BLKST) - VERY difficult to find info on this model.

In regards to some specific models on your list:
1660FLAG is actually 1660FLG I believe.
1660RT... I cannot confirm the existence of this model#.
1660RTST... I cannot confirm the existence of this model#.
1660OL is actually 1660OLBK I believe.
1660PUR is actually 1660PR I believe.
1660RED... I cannot confirm the existence of this model#.
1660BLSO is actually 1660KBLSO I believe.
1660BP... interestingly, there are two different models with this model#.

Of course, I could certainly be wrong, anyone is encouraged to correct me. As of now, I have listed all the Leeks that I am aware of, so let me know if something it missing! (Credit due to this website as an excellent Leek reference: http://www.c-l.ca/Leek/Kershaw%20Leek.htm)

Unless I am miscounting, Leek list now stands at 109 models.

(And, I am not ignoring everyone's posts regarding other models and appreciate all additions, I'm still far from finished with what I am aware of...)

Older stuff like this is going to be the biggest problem for me, so this is very much appreciated!
 
Hi! Love this - I'm always scouring the forum here looking for data on Kershaws. Since I'm very focused on Skylines, I"ll add my input and of all things - I stumbled upon a model, that I don't see here: 1600WOLF. Was there a 1600DEER and 1600TROUT to go with it?

This is the list I added to this posting (with photographs proving the existence of a few rarer models)
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...My-Skyline-Collection?p=13181601#post13181601

1760 - Introduced December, 2007
1760 First Production Run - 500 numbered "1 of 500"
1760 Ducks Unlimited - I've seen photographs of 2 of these on BF
1760 Composite Blade Prototype 14C28N/CPM-D2 - photograph and details from Thomas W. post on 05/26/2008
1760 40th Anniversary - giveaway at the 2014 SHOT - Photographs from Kershaw's Facebook page

1760DAM - ~500 on first production run in 2008, I have no idea how many were produced during the 2013 production run.

1760CKT - No idea on number produced. S&R special edition.

1760BRNCKT - No idea on number produced. Kershawguy special edition. Only version with black pocket clip.

1760OR - No idea on number produced. Originally a Cabela's exclusive.

1760RD - No idea on number produced. Mine has no Born on Date and it is engraved "14C28N" so this is a post-2009 production.

1760RDSO - No idea on number produced. Originally from April 2009 - a box with ~60 were for sale at the 2013 Kershaw warehouse sale.

1760RDSW - 421 made and sold by BladeHQ in early 2013.

1760BLSW - 64 made and sold by BladeHQ in early 2013 (rarest non-prototype edition that was sold to the public).

1760BFC - 500 Spark from BF organized this run of 500 - Only version with S30V steel and serial numbers (got lucky and purchased the last one of Spark's leftover 14!)

1760BW - ~1,000 made. Introduced December, 2013.

1760BLBW - 211 sold by BladeHQ on 1/3/2014 (entire run sold out in less than 12 hours)
 
A few Zing models (discontinued)
Zing green handle black tanto blade 1735TGRNCKT
Zing black handle black tanto 1735TCKT and 1735TBLK
Zing orange handle 1735OR
Zing black handle 1735
Zing black handle damascus blade 1735DAM
Zing black handle tanto blade 1735T

And then there is the new non-USA model
Zing stainless handle 1730SS
 
I'm codifying some data on a few other model families I've been stalking and the first I've completed are the ever popular Cyclones. I tried to put it in the same format you are using to make it easier to cut and paste...

These are on your current list:
Cyclone Black plain blade (1630BLK)
Cyclone Black serrated blade (1630BLKST)
Cyclone Black Tanto serrated blade (1630TBLKT)

Mini Cyclone plain blade (1635BLK)
Mini Cyclone serrated blade (1635BLKST)
Mini Cyclone Tanto serrated blade (1635CKTST)

Here are some to add to the list for the Cyclone models and variations:

Cyclone Black Scale/Satin Blade (1630)
Cyclone Black Scale/Satin Blade serrated (1630ST)
Cyclone Grey Scale/Satin Blade (1630GRY)
Cyclone Grey Scale/Satin Blade serrated (1630GRYST)

Mini Cyclone Black Scale/Satin Blade (1635)
Mini Cyclone Black Scale/Satin Blade serrated (1635ST)
Mini Cyclone Grey Scale/Satin Blade (1635GRY)
Mini Cyclone Grey Scale/Satin Blade serrated (1635GRYST)

Class of 1:
Mini Cyclone Ti Scale/Black Blade ZDP-189 (1636TiZDP)
 
"In regards to some specific models on your list:
1660FLAG is actually 1660FLG I believe.
1660RT... I cannot confirm the existence of this model#.
1660RTST... I cannot confirm the existence of this model#.

1660PUR is actually 1660PR I believe.
1660RED... I cannot confirm the existence of this model#.
1660BLSO is actually 1660KBLSO I believe.
1660BP... interestingly, there are two different models with this model#.
Leek Black Handle Damascus blade (1660DAMBK) – different than 1660DAMCKT?
Leek Black Handle Damascus blade (1660DAMCKT) – different than 1660DAMBK? "

FLAG is correct. If one was made as FLG I need one for my collection!! BLSO indeed should be KBLSO. OL, PUR and RED are newer versions. BP was made as a black/purple smoke and a black pearl inlay Leek. A serrated version of the BP inlayed Leek was also made BPST. DAMCKT and DAMBK were made, as well as the CKTDAM !!!

RED Leek - was an HOB exclusive. http://www.houseofblades.com/produc...assisted-house-of-blades-exclusive-knife.html

BP (black/purple smoke):



PUR & PR:





BP Inlayed Leek:

I don't see the "I love boobies" Leek on there Russ:D.

Back on topic. Awesome job on trying to get all the Kershaws onto a list. It is quite an undertaking.
 
I posted part of this message in the Skyline thread by mistake, but I just want to point out that everything that is being mentioned has been added to my work list and will make it into the list, all the help is appreciated. Haiduke, I much appreciate your effort to put your list in my format (which by the way, should it not be obvious, is sorted by model name then model number within model name) which saves me considerable cutting and pasting!

Poolhustler, I need to get back to you on my 'disagreements' with your list. I am NOT saying I am correct, I WANT to be corrected if I am incorrect, but because I needed to find descriptions for most of your model#'s, some I could not find any mention of (which mainly involves Googling for the model#). I appreciate the link to the 1660RED, which confirms it's existence... although now that I Google that, I find plenty of references, so I must have been having mental problems at that point. Regarding 1660FLG vs 1660FLAG, the only picture of this model that I have been able to find that actually SHOWS the model# is here: http://www.c-l.ca/Leek/K1660FLG/K1660FLG.htm, which shows a model# of 1660FLG. Google does come up with references to 1660FLAG, but none that actually shows the model# that I can find. If you have a model that you are sure is listed as 1660FLAG, just let me know, that is obviously proof enough.

I am NOT attempting to confirm the existence of every model# listed, just doing what I can, so ANY corrections are always appreciated!

I did some digging and I can see it spelled out both ways, but the only view of the engraving I could find was 1660FLG (and 1600FLG). Having said that, I wouldn't doubt that it could be both ways, such as there being two models of JYD listed as 1725BLK and I have two Lahars that are identical except for the model number - one is 1750 the other is a misprint with the model number being 1745.

There is a Leek American Flag 1660FLG! Here's mine:

Just added about 95 knives to the list and made a few slight corrections. Work continues...

I agree, there are models with more than one model number. I just noticed earlier tonight that Kershaw's website lists the Shuffle as model# "3800 or 8700", which I don't understand yet. Also, I have seen pictures of the Junkyard Dog II (1725BLKST) with both black and satin blades (which I discussed elsewhere here, I believe the satin blade is a later version and they didn't bother changing the model#). I just have a 'suspicion' that people are wanting to stick an "A" in "FLG", since the knife pictures a "FLAG", but I added a note to this model about the possibility of a 1660FLAG model# existing, until we are more certain.
