Hello Gary and all. I started with meteorites that I had found and then I started to buy some and so on. My collecting has now spilled over into Gold, some of which I have found. But I have also bought and traded for some of it. Then I found myself acquiring knives, it started with a Gibeon knife then a Campo knife. Now I have a couple regular knives in my display cabinet. Then I noticed some really cool cabs made from interesting rocks and I have started a small collection of different cabs and rock specimens. I also do a lot of metal detecting so I find some interesting junk (I call them treasures) so I also have a collection of rusty cans nails and other interesting items that have been dug up or found in old junk piles. I even have a Samurai sword, but they are way too expensive to collect very many, 1 sword from the mid 1700's costs 6k ouch! So I guess I love to collect and meteorites just got me started!

As a neophyte collector of meteorites I have amassed about $1K in specimens, all of which I cherish dearly. I am learning about preservation as some of my specimens are beginning to show signs of scaling, kamacite ooze and other such degradations. Interestingly enough, along the way I've also become interested in terrestrial rocks, fossils, impactites and the like. I was just wondering; What else does everyone collect?
