Holy crap!

Here is one of my big ones in scale.

Here is the Latama next to a full size 1911!!

I like it! I had a green one like that about forty years ago that was unfortunately stolen from me.

My newest acquisition!!

This is what is called a "sterile" Benchmade AFO 9050 auto knife. It is an older Government contract knife made with no marking at all!!!

The story I have on these sterile versions is they were intended for covert Special Ops missions where the nationality of the operators would be best left unknown.

I have one of those, (not sterile) that I carried when I was on the job. Very handy knife. Mine has been through the mud, the blood, the guts and the beer and it's still a worthy tool.
