what annoys me on this site is collectors asking " what is your opinion on this " etc . When i started collecting the best advice i ever got was buy the reference books , talk to other collectors, an handle as many items as you can . which mirrors exactly what craig says .I dont consider myself an expert an i dont think i will ever have a world class collection , but after 15 years of collecting i own a reasonable amount of daggers ,26 to be precise , an i am happy with them all , yes i have been burnt but what TR collector has nt ? the fact of the matter is to many collectors now want there hands holding on every purchase they make . All i can say is do your homework an dont rely on anyone but yourself ,cos at the end its your money your spending � $
