I have been collecting knives for many years. However, I just recently bought my first Dalton knife at a gun and knife show in GA and I loved it so much that I went back two weeks later to another show and bought two more. I am going back in about another week to see if anyone comes out with new dalton's. It is very hard to find dalton's around here and I thought this forum would be a good idea you all seem to know what you talking about
