I feel you man. I've been a bit aggressive collecting CPK's lately. The pocket book (and mrs.) may not be so happy....although she does think the dagger is the best CPK ever offered, after the short sword/dagger one off.

I'm just going to fondle my Shiv while I cry into my Scotch...there's no way in hell I can compete in an auction
Chip, Chip, Chip!
Unlike the Fun Friday Sales where very good luck and mad keyboard-foo is essential, winning an auction takes very little expertise so please allow me to spell out the required success formula to you:
1- Mist have a pulse!
2- must be able to stick one’s hands up or the cyber equivalent!
3- must know the auction venue to register to partake
4- a good HELOC, line of credit, credit card, GE Capital or whatevs as means of payment
5- most importantly, a keen ability to step all over one’s own deeeek to outbid everyone else. A stiff drink or two, always very helpful!
Lastly, if the auctioneer brings scantly glad show girls for eye-candy, I for one tend to go full on peacock mode and way overspend! LOL...

Too late, I already saw that Kephart CGI
I’ll leave the Dagger Quest to someone else. That Kephart will be a different story though when it makes its way from the cartoon stage to real D3V with AECM.

Antique micarta comes to mind as a sweet scale material for these.

Has the venue been announced Uncle Matty? I need to partake in the full set of shenanigans.
I can manage the other required acts of stupidity on my own.
Well, the K18 was your purchase, so she bids on the dagger then. Problem solved. His & hers CPKs. K18 for you, dagger for herYeah, my wife has a thing for pretty daggers too (pretty much all she collects)... but she let me put a K18 on credit so we're tapped out for now

I don't believe that Nathan has said anything other than #auction thing! If I had to guess, I'd say that they will hold it on IG which I find a dull venue for that Dagger #auction

That would be unfortunate for me. I'd hate to be forced to join IG just so I can bid.
Maybe they'll be other means to submit bids...<fingers crossed>

While I like the way he is thinking,we would have to sell our first born and I do like him an awful lot. Put a lot of work into that kid.
But on the other hand... Dagger...

No doubt somebody (or numerous people) will get a beautiful DaggerI don't believe that Nathan has said anything other than #auction thing! If I had to guess, I'd say that they will hold it on IG which I find a dull venue for that Dagger #auction
Not into Auctions, so I will pass. If the (10 inch Dagger) is offered with a firm price, and with the options I WANT , I would be very interested Now Bring on the UF's and K-18's
