Great pic man. WOW :eek:

I never knew there was a size difference between the Viele and the Viele II. Which one is the larger one?

And....I just counted 'em. Looks to be 104. :)

You have good eyes, Ted! Especially the :spyder: Pirka is not easy to find on the picture.

Too little ;)

The Viele is the larger and older one.

very nice collection. I just got a matriarch and was wondering about the size difference between it and a civilian. Now I have my answer. Thanks

Ok, I admit defeat, where is that Pirka? (I am counting 107 with the two little things that I can barely make out in the upper right hand corner, one looks like a mini Poliwog?)

Peter,
All I can say is "Wow"!!!
How much time did it take to get them all?
I am drooling over some knives in the upper right corner... and over almost entire bottom row... and... I guess, I am just drooling :D
Great collection!

The two little things are :spyder: pins (Poliwog + ATR TI).

On the picture you see four rows of knives. In the second row from above you will find the Pirka. I will not describe more, it's more exiting to find the Pirka by your own :)

To answer this question is very easy: a lot of time, mate :D

Look on The Deacon - I guess he has 3-4 x more Spydies than I and then look on his age :D (just kidding, Paul).
