Photos Sharing CRK Art - My CRK Collection

I met him once, at Blade a couple years ago. I don't know if he remembers much about my collection, but I do know that he knows about 2 of my knives. He signed the box in the pics above, and he let me take a pic of this old UG that he did the graphics and ground the blade on. A very nice gentleman to talk to. :thumbup:

Legend!
 
Not me. I need to set one up for the Facebook group I'm in, but I don't have a smartphone, so what I can do on IG is limited.

I’ve had the good fortune of seeing the ‘08 Bubinga in person. It’s a real beauty!

Yeah, it is. That one should have been gone once a 2008 Mammoth arrived, but I just can't bring myself to let it go.

I've been on a bit of an Annuals tear in Fanpage, after completing the full set of both sizes of Annuals. A multi-year quest that I really had started to doubt would ever happen. So here's the pic of a large and small from each year of production. :)

Then I decided to pair up my Annuals again. Not by year, but by matching the inlays. I put out one large from each year, in order. Then I mated up the matching small, or as close as I could get. 1999, 2003, 2004, and 2007-2011 are all matched by both inlay and year. 2002 and 2006 are matched by inlay, but not year. 2002 and 2005 are matched by inlay color, but not specie. 2001 isn't a match to anything else I have, so I put lg Buckeye Burl and sm Black Ash Burl together.
1999 Maple (2 variants, Dyed & Southwestern)
2000/2002 Desert Ironwood
2001 Buckeye Burl/2005 Black Ash Burl
2002 Walnut/ 2003 Macassar Ebony
2003 Curly Maple
2004 Walnut Burl
2005 Amboyna/2006 Redwood
2006/1999 Box Elder
2007 Mammoth Bark
2008 Mammoth Ivory
2009 Thuya
2010 Spalted Maple
2011 Wengewood

Absolutely beautiful! And congrats! I’m still searching for an annual...waiting for the right one. I just hope I don’t wait too long. Lol.

Again, just a wonderful collection.
