Brian's Wee Selection

Wow, impressive collection. I hope to have a collection like this someday. I really love the blue dodo. I wish I bought one when I had the chance.

Nah mate the answer was MERLIN...........

I used to have a whole another set of both Black AND Blue Dodo. Took me months if not a year or two to get my first (Black) matched pair then I suddenly had them popping up from all over the place..........way it goes sometimes! :D

My latest little babies..........Stainless SLIPIT version of the perennial KIWI, RED Persian (sexy red thang you!) and the wonderful SHABARIA Carbon Fibre PE............. :rock:

I'll do a group shot of the Shabaria family tomorrow!

(I'll re-shoot the above as well, CRAP shots due to poor light conditions!)

BRIAN

Nice pics

What do you think about the stainless steel kiwi? Is it as weel as the carbon/japan one?

Thanks

buglerbilly · #205

NOT quite as nice as the original Kiwi's but pretty good nonetheless.........I'll probably rotate this one as my EDC along with my old model Kiwi Stainless..........

I'll try to do a mini-review between this Slipit version and the old model later this week if I get time......... :)

BRIAN

Ok, that's what I thought.

Thank you Brian.

All the SHABARIA's together...........interesting to see the different pin arrangements between the three models............

Nice set Brian.
Gorgeous curves.

Thanks Roman, I'm getting some nice sets together now.

Military's and Para's are on my long-term horizon as are Persians. Started with both sets but not complete yet to MY satisfaction.

Got completes for Dyads to date, Kopa's (production models), Natives almost there (missing the OEF version), Jess Horns almost (missing the Jigged Bone), Goddards (need to check but I may be complete now?), Perrin Bowies & all his others to date, Yojimbo's to date, Rookies to date, Harpy's to date (I think, need to check references), Viele's to date, Dodo's to date, JD Smith to date, Poliwogs to date, FB05 Temperance and Temperance 2 to date, Schempp Kris (just got my second) and most if not all of his other models.............

Started and well advanced for Ladybug's, Jesters, Dragonfly's, Lums (both types), Meerkats, Civilians (only one to date, long term target for the rest, all of them)..............got heaps of one-offs like Rocklobster etc which may/will become sets as times advance..........

Addicted? Nahhhhhhhhhhhh :D :rolleyes: :spyder: :D

BRIAN

Very good collection and nice pics! I have CF Shabaria and is surprising how good its ergonomics are.

PS: The hardest step is to acknowledge you're addicted... :)
