Added the "What's New" page

Redid the vault so that the pictures are smaller but you can click on them to see the larger, more detailed images.

I've added a new source code to the Market Watch, The Balisong Collector's Shameless Commerce Division, to clearly distinguish those knives sold via my new Shameless Commerce Division page. I have personally examined all knives sold via the SCD, I wrote the descriptions, I assigned the grades, and I set the prices. So, depending on what you think of me and my opinions, you may want to weigh those sales accordingly when considering the value of similar balisongs you may have.

More Manufacturer's marks.

Added a new link or two and expanded the descriptions of a few more.

Added a definition of Micarta.

Elaborated on the opening page a bit.

Changed the icons for maker's and production marks. (Basically, my favorite clip-art site put some new stuff up which I liked better. And no, I won't tell you where I get my clip-art. Get you own clip-art.).

Added updated information about Ken Elgin and Kelgin knives.

Closed the first sale of the Shameless Commerce Division. Stay tuned for future sales of collectible balsiongs.

Updated the Market Watch including the much awaited review of the Italian Balisong I recently purchased.

My fellow movie critic, The Balisong Doctor himself, has added two new movies.

Welcome noted balisong authority Professor Roland Phlip who teaches a valuable lesson about celluloid to elaborate on my descriptions of two knifes added to the market watch

Added Arnis Prasas Style and Balisong by Grandmaster Ernesto A. Prasas to my books page.

Added a definition for Celluloid since it came up the other day.

Added two new wallpaper images

Spruced up the opening page just a little bit.

BM42

While all of you spent your valentine's day courting your favorite someone special, I spent mine getting to know someone new. Of course, my "someone new" is Benchmade's new Bali-Song, the model 42. (Don't feel sad for me, my girlfriend is out of town this week hosting a visiting head of state... yes, really!).

The Shameless commerce division is now closed. Those who want to grab copies of the higher-resolution pictures of these pieces should do so now as those will go away shortly.

Officially moved to the new site, http://www.balisongcollector.com. I updated just about every page on the site to reflect new addresses, etc. While you may not see a lot of changes, I changed a lot of stuff to make it easier for me to update and add to this growing site.

For you techies, I added a page displaying the tools I use to create an maintain this site.

Added a new essay I've been thinking about for quite some time, The Theology of Knife Collecting. I hope you'll find it interesting.

Added some new information about the history of the balisong

Brought the links page up date.

Another new movie

A new book and a new review of a video (actually, a set of three videos)

Two new movies

Two new movies and a slightly different format so that the list isn't quite so long.

Added two new links and reorganized the format to make it faster to load.

Added a few more links

Reorganized some of the short essays of Professor Roland Phlip of The Institute for Advanced Balisong Studies into a collection that can be more easily found and read

Moved the "Roadshow" schedule off of the front page just to make the front page a bit more compact.

A bit of remodeling here at The Balisong Collector's Headquarters. The varios photo galleries have been consolidated under one roof. This shortens the main menu

An exciting new addition to the site. Some of my best work yet. Check it out!

Removed the announcement about Gemini from the home page and added a link in the main menu. This neatens up the home page a bit.

Removed the announcement about the Benchmade 42 from the home page and moved it to the new reviews page. This neatens up the home page.

Added a whole new section for reviews of balisongs. Currently, there are reviews of the Benchmade Model 42 and the first Gemini Prototype

Added a very important review of the first Gemini Prototype. This completes a major milestone in the Gemini Project. We're now ready to begin production!

Added some wallpaper images of the Gemini Prototype.

More remodeling to make navigation faster and easier. Also, a significant new addition, a very nice example of the late Ron Miller's custom balisongs.

And, just when you think you've see 'em all, two more movies. Keep 'em coming.

Two months? Where have I been? Well, The Oregon Knife Collector's Show, for starters. Anyway, the Galleries have been a bit of a disappointment to me. I'm just not getting what I want. So, I've remodeled again and added two new exhibits.

In my balisong travels, I've accumulated a few snapshots of myself and others. So, I've added a new page, The Balisong Collector's Album to show them to you.

And, I'm still working to clean up the home page to make it tighter. Nothing's been removed from the site, but some items are now linked in differently. Take a look around.

Added a review of the book "Balisong -- The Lethal Art of Filipino Knife Fighting. I haven't put this book up yet since it's more about knife fighting than balisong manipulation. But, it came up in discussions the other day and I think it ought to be listed here.

And the new movie, The Mummy Returns, also get's a listing.

Added even more new Tachyon wallpaper as promised.

Added an extensive review of Tachyon with no less than 14 pictures!

A new hints and kinks article on using thread-locking adhesives on balisong knives

Made a few clarifications and a few more comments about Tachyon including one new picture.
