View Full Version : What's the biggest?
KnifeWife 05-08-2001, 01:25 PM Texas is a "horse-tradin'" state I have found in the years I have lived here.
What's the biggest thing anyone has traded for a knife? Either you traded for the knife or traded a knife of your own.
george tichbourne 05-08-2001, 03:32 PM I traded a set of kitchen knives and cash for a new roof on the house.
J Loose 05-08-2001, 04:52 PM Biggest trade I have worked out so far is with a friend of mine apprenticing under a tattoo artist-
He gets a damascus sword and I get a full body-suit of Norse Interlace... heh heh heh...
I have traded a wax casting model of a bronze knife for another tattoo on my leg... and let's see... I have also traded a damascus Scramasax billet for a *very* nice SCA Vendel style helmet.
But some of the best trades are for cash. ;-)
Don Cowles 05-08-2001, 05:52 PM I traded a small hunter and some cash for a new floor in my shop. I think we both got a good deal.
Terry Hearn 05-08-2001, 06:35 PM Would you belive a new living room suit:)
dogman 05-08-2001, 08:19 PM I traded a production Busse for my first digital camera. I have yet to trade for one of my customs, although I want to. I just haven't found my knife collecting tattoo artist:) Maybe I will have to visit Jonathan:)
Mondt 05-08-2001, 09:28 PM When in Michigan I traded a knife for semi-professional photography services.
I just traded a knife for 2-Elk antlers, 4- Mulie antlers and a group to be disclosed later.
I also trade knives for all of my production steel.
Trading is a gooooood thing!!:) :) :) :)
KnifeWife 05-09-2001, 12:05 PM Trading is a great thing.
Gene drives a truck he got for a knife.
He built the additons to his shop with materials he got trading knives.
He's even had a chiropractor trade his services for knives.
Terrill Hoffman 05-09-2001, 03:35 PM Being in the service business, I often trade my services for knives. Then again, when I want to refine my collection, I'll trade a few knives for other items. Of course I have not any serious trading since, uh, yesterday.
KnifeWife 05-10-2001, 09:06 PM As good as the pictures you take are, I'd say the person your trading with definitely gets their "money's" worth in the deal.
Terrill Hoffman 05-11-2001, 06:28 AM Thank you dear. The best trade is when both people think they got the better end of the deal.
combs6136 05-12-2001, 08:08 PM I traded a pony, saddle and bridle for a knife..That pony liked to bite and was i happy with that trade...Carl
tbark44 06-03-2001, 03:36 PM I swapped one of my D-A Swinguards for a Sony 6X Digital camera
Pat forgot that when we got married, I paid the preacher with a knife of mine.
Bro. Ron Malone still treasures this same knife today, 12 years later.(And I still treasure my wife.) :)
