Post yer cutlery. I'm kind of a knife freak. http://imgur.com/1j8fx">  From the left: Estwing (USA), Kershaw 1475 (USA), Buck 112 (USA), Random knife I found (China), Kershaw Vapor (China), Bear & Son 512 Damascus (USA), Case Baby Butterbean (USA), Case Eisenhower (USA), The last one is a John Primble (USA) that I found in a drawer in a house I moved into. Did some research and found it was from the 50's. Awesome edge, very easy to sharpen, oh, and last, Gerber Paraframe (China, piece of crap). The big Kershaw is my hunting knife, as it's ridiculously sharp, but probably my favorite to carry everywhere is the smaller Chinese Kershaw- it holds a sweet edge. -------------  irc.esper.net #paintball |

I have a Buck like yours, a cheap ACU pattern handled knife I got from the NG, and my favorite, a SOG Seal Pup

I was just looking at the SOG Seal Pup in a Cabelas catalog the other day. How do you like it? ------------- irc.esper.net #paintball |

My go to pocket knife has been a 3 blade buck knife lately. I've been whittling when bored and the different blades help. I also keep my gerber multi tool in my pocket when I'm working. ------------- 
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos. |

Kershaw Leek. I love it, the 14C28N blade is awesome. The only downfall for the knife is the blade is too thin for moderate work, I bent the tip slightly when I used to work at a junkyard. -------------

What I carry every day: They cost $1 a piece at walmart, and I don't need wicked good sharp blades for what I use knives for(cutting plastic, cardboard, using it as a screwdriver, rope on occasion) ------------- Que pasa?

My wife has officially stated that I "own too many knives". :(
They are split into two groups, general use folders and fixed blade defensive knives. I haven't bought a new folder in AGES, but I am still trying to get a nice fixed blade. I started out carrying a CRKT Sting II. It is a fantastic little blade. I've got a Cold Steel boot knife and a cheapie DOW that also does fixed blade duty. My two most recnt pieces are a Muela Tanto style blade and a CRKT NECK knife. Both are nice little blades. But yeah, my knife buying has slowed WAY down and is now more or less centered on CRKT. Best value for money. ------------- Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo. H = 2 |

Have my leatherman on me all the time. The blade on that is a good all purpose one. Depending on the work I'm doing, I'll carry a Frost folder that I used to keep in my PPE (turnout) when I was in the fire service. Or an Axiz serrated folder that we got as promotional when I worked custodial at a school. Neither are great knives, but I lose them easily so I never wanted to spent too much to get one. I've also got a swiss army that's been beat to hell and back, but still an excellent piece. My only sheath knife is an old Case blade that I got from my father. Its damn near ancient, but an excellent blade. There are maybe half a dozen others scattered about, one in the glove box of my car, one that never leaves my hunting pack, and one that sets in my reenacting gear. Don't recall makes. I've lost and broken a number of knives, my biggest regret is losing a beautiful Browning folder that I had for about a week. ------------- ? |
