I love my benchmade. Best knife I ever owned. She needs to be sharpened though.

That 940 Warren Osborne was my 1st big boy knife

Not sure if anyone has mentioned the Blood Creek Knife Co. but Jason Robson makes some really great knives. Currently using the Flatlander boot knife as my everyday carry.

Looks like a modified Ulu. Pretty sure I've seen a low end version at my leather shop. I like it lots

What's the story behind that knife? I've never seen a design like it before.
It's a custom Round Knife, or Head Knife for Leatherworking. It's made by a company in New Mexico called Leather Wranglers that makes custom leather tools like Round knives or Swivel knives. Gorgeous and absolutely wonderful to work with tools. http://www.shop.leatherwranglers.com/product.sc?productId=25&categoryId=7
It makes lovely straight cuts, it's my preferred blade for pattern cutting, and because the blade is so big, it's fantastic for cutting thick pieces perfectly straight, and I also use it for skiving.

Interesting, thanks for the info!

I just re-read my last post and I kind of made it sound like it only cuts in straight lines, and I want to correct that. I use it a lot to make small detail cuts for small pieces with or without curved lines. It's especially important for making a clean edge for a finished piece. Lesser quality blades that bend can leave an edge that's not clean, and takes more work to make it presentable. Having a sturdy large blade makes the cuts straight and clean, even when the pattern piece has corners. I hope I made it more clear, even if only for myself

A wise old man once said that if a man had pants on, he should also be carrying his knife. I never leave home without one – it's a great tool to have. One that can help save your life in many different scenarios. Usually, I carry a Gerber 06 (drop point version) or a custom 5" stag folder, which look's similar to a Buck 110. Sometimes, I carry a 4" fixed blade (custom):
