That's a beautiful knife. My main edc is a CRKT M16 variant. Heavily worn now. And if you think that's worn, just wait till I get a pic of my fishing knifes/multitools... Covered in guts

My secondary (travel/dress knife) is a Leatherman Skeletool.

Working on getting a CRKT Provoke or one of the various clones on the market for use as another edc. I don't spend a ton on knives, but I do appreciate something utilitarian. That said, one of these days I'm going to pull the trigger on a knife that I will only wear on special occasions, something made from Damascus or another expensive material. It's like a nice watch: to me it completes the outfit.

Man, talk about an expensive hobby lol.

Just grabbed a Spyderco Mule in 15V today, had an alarm set for the drop and it took about 10 minutes to check out since the site kept crashing. Now I gotta up my sharpening stone game, since I def need some diamond now.

I carried a Kershaw Volt II for about 6 years and bought a second one to dual carry.

Now rocking one of these Crescents, at about $9 a piece with a lifetime warranty and D2 blade it's hard to go wrong.

Also have a SOG that looks sorta like this, not super useful, but it looks cool

And here's a butterfly knife with a 52100 balde and a big chopper with a 5160 blade, both of which I made





I own lots of other stuff and have owned lots of other stuff, but it's been sorta lame and not really worth sharing, save for a katana I made that turned more into a wakizashi when I melted the tip.
Here's some pics of some cool knives I've had in my downloads for a while.

Here's the four currently battling for a place in my pocket - Spyderco Mantra 2, modified Spyderco Smock, modified Leatherman Curl, and a old CRKT Lake 111. Tend to view knives as tools rather than collectibles or art etc, my stuff gets used hard

I don't own most of the knives pictured any more for those very reasons--too expensive and not utilitarian. Thank goodness the used knife market lets you sell for what you paid a lot of times (I pretty much bought everything used.)

15V! You are a brave, brave man. I make it a point to try and never have brittle blade steels, since almost any knife could end up being used to quarter whatever I'm hunting at any one time.

I like the chopper--she's a rough beauty, but a beauty nonetheless.

Don't we already have a knife thread?
Spitfire said we did, but I'd already created this one by the time he told me. Ban me if you wish. :cry:
Nah it's cool. It's in the secret member club area ;) so this one is fine.

Hmm. The secret member club. I might have to join that eventually.
I'll contribute. This is the first knife I made, back in 2021. I have the steel and equipment to make more, just gotta get the space set up in the shop and find the time.

Newer pieces from Boker, still deciding if I like the feel of G10 vs wood scales or metal. Got a 42 tucked away, few others as well - used to be pretty good with them, these days if I can impress the kids without dropping anything I count that as a win :ROFLMAO:

Ya, mine’s not that nice….but it’s partial serrated.…..
Spyderco knives are quite nicely made, but I can't get over how ugly most of them look haha. Maybe I'll change my mind in the future.
