Found a way to combine coins collecting and knives collecting?That's awesome though! I had heard about these a long time ago but never really looked into them. It's funny how the "Chinese" found a way to combine wallet and keyring
I am only seeing this thread now Great idea RP I may try and get a pic or 2 together this weekend (don't hold your breath as I am forgetful though ) Truly a lot of great pics and some awesome coins in here

Still, that's so awesome. I knew about the dolphin coins but knife coins? That's so cool!

They saw so much value in knives that knives actually became currency... Imagine paying for gaz with a Spartan and a Classic SD
