This just takes my breath away. Wanted to get this out there to our knife community.

Wow! What a collection of knives to be stolen. A life's worth of collecting. The person who stole them won't even know or care about the value and are likely exchanging for drugs.

Oh no - what a nightmare!

Where were they stolen?

That sucks big time. At least they weren't high end Customs from some of the biggest names in the industry. A poor joke. Hope they are returned.

RDU stands for Raleigh–Durham International Airport. The great Tar-heel state. Hope the thief is on video and they can get him.

Hate to hear this. A lot of rare, irreplaceable knives there. Love that Ted Dowell ironwood lockback. What a shame.

The mothers son needs to feel the cutting edge on his hide before they are returned.Various places come to mind as a starting point.

Man feel so sorry for you! That collection is really great!

I think I mentioned this before, but a friend of mine that travels with his custom knives, always includes a cheapy wheel gun and checks them all in one hard locked case. At every stop, it must be inspected. He has never lost a knive or the cheapy gun in 20 years.

Abby--

Is this the case where law enforcement managed to identify the thief from airport video, and trace his traveling to Indianapolis and arrest his with most of the knives? I believe he had sold just a few of the knives before they got him.
