Let's see your knives

[Foscheck]

I've always enjoyed the looks of a well made knife. I think I caught the bug to collect a few. I know there's no end to the cool stuff that RDP inmates have. Any suggestions regarding brand and type are appreciated.

My best friend made these for me. I have a few others from him.

My grandfather's Kbar from the service, my daily carry, plus I have another spyderco in the boat.

 

[C-2]

In my desk, and one from my pocket. There's others in the car, truck and tool boxes.

My EDC is the Gerber Ripstop, top left. Had it for about 5 years now, if this knife had a tanto blade and window breaker nub it would be perfect. It's so thin, it never leaves my pocket, not even during sleep (I sleep in my pants...dunno why).

Second favorite is the Kershaw on top right with the serrated tanto, but it's thicker than the Gerber.

Newest one is lower left corner, the HK spring assist - thing scares me.

Coolest is the Southord pick set. You know, James Bond type stuff :thumbsup

I have one of those classic Buck's too, in with a gun box. Thing looks like new, but is about 35 years old. Looks like you've used yours just a little, lol :thumbup:

 

[USMC2010]

My only war trophy, yes I have the proper paperwork. Iraqi AK bayonet.

USMC - what are the 3 black ones, spring assist? What make, you must like the brand?

They hold an edge so well and cut an animal up nicely.

Like having a 40-50 year old Remington 870 Wingmaster - plenty of them out there, but damn they still feel great :thumbsup

From top to bottom, the Buck folding hunter,
Spyderco Police, nicknamed my heeler, if I go down one swipe to the Achilles takes you to my level.
All 3 black handles are Benchmade,
9100 Auto stryker, push button auto open. I was issued it in Iraq and it is my favorite but I won't carry it outside of AZ.
527 Mini Presidio, no open assist, I bought while contracting in Afganistan, they didn't like me having my Spyderco, it was too big. I carry this the most.
530 Pardue with etched blade, no open assist, Christmas present from the company I was contracting for in Afg.
and the handy 3 blade pocket buck. I have no idea how many of this one I have lost over my lifetime.

Some of the others

It may be on a plaque but it is an unconsidered weapon of opportunity if needed. I really want to get one for carry.

Is that an obsidian blade?

That classic Buck is what started me down this path. Mine is about 40 years old. I decided to polish it up and fell in love again. We have similar taste in knives. RDP never disappoints.

Love the lock pick set. Very cool. I think James Bond slept in his pants too.

These are my ..Knives Of Alaska...

The three knife set is the suregrip triple combo... Consisting of the brown bear, light hunter, and cub bear.

In the middle, the suregrip Coho fillet knife

The two knife set is the suregrip Bush/Muskrat combo

Bear hunt'n back-up!...S&W 500 Mag

A Bowie I've had forever!

A Battle ready, razor sharp, real McCoy!

And the pocket knife!...

Must be careful with it coming out the pocket as it opens (designed to) pretty easy!

And a box full of Old Timers!...I need to dig out!

 

[Wicky]

Cooking, butchering, fileting, or sushi....these cover it all.
Henkle 5 star and Forshner are my go to knives that will out live me and slice and dice like nobody's business.

 

[Foscheck]

. Here's a few. The old school Buck is about 40 years old. The Explorer is about 35. I have a feeling that I'll be adding to my collection soon.

I'm not into knives at all, but those are beautiful.

 

[copterzach]

This one that my grandfather had made in the 80's. I carried it forever. Just put it up. It was a $700 knife in the 80's. Knife maker name was West. He doesn't make knives anymore. Local guy down here.

Nice, I'm quite fond of Benchmade obviously but holy crap they are expensive. This one and a Bali song are on my wish list.

My pocket knife is a new tech knife swift blade punisher, in white. Speed assisted 4" slim blade, center cut.

 

[Wicky]

Heirloom Kinfolks Super Hunter flame edge given to me by my grandpa. Never been used or sharpened. So pretty to look at though!!

Here's some of mine. Lol

Way back I bought an auto just like the left one in kit form from a comic book. I put it together and had it for years. It got confiscated when I first enlisted while in school at 29 Palms and was retiring several broken pieces.

My Father had an auto similar to the one second from the left. I'll have to find out what happened to it. Hopefully it's still around.

I've had most of those since I was a kid. 20 plus years. I went through a phase buying all kinds of illegal knives. Kept these ones all those years. They're neat little toys. That's about it. The knife at top I actually carry and it's a great knife
