Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades
-
My Dragonfly's G10 handle has the awesomest denim stains, I'll post up a pic after christmas.
And since we can talk about kitchen knives as well, my choice is Mac knives. I love the feel of the wooden handle and the weight distribution on these. Started using them when I was studying to become a cook in the early 90's and I still use my first Mac (a 20 cm knife) daily. Moved on to another career later but still love cooking!

No Doug that's a sword.
Nah, this is a sword:
Albion Gladius
Christian Fletcher scabbard and baldric.
Aero Barnstormer as well for those leather jacket fans out there. -
Throw in some jeans and some beer and you have the perfect pic!..
I'll get my 634Ss, and a bottle of Hobgoblin, then take it again.

It's nice but it is very small for my fairly large hands. It's pretty comfortable to hold but the blade feels a little short sometimes. The lanyard gives a bit of extra control, my pinky finger doesn't fit on the handle so it grips the lanyard. But hey, I wanted a small knife that would fit in the coin pocket and this sure fits the bill.
Kind of wanting a BM Mini Griptilian at the moment but it is a bit bulkier…

I have a mini griptilian. I've almost never had it in my person since it's very thick and I don't like to keep it in my pocket. The blade is very good and the opening/locking mechanism is maybe the best I've used. It's about three times as thick as Chive (edit).
EDIT: Not Chive but Scallion!
EDIT EDIT: I'm obviously a bit confused. It is indeed Chive, they're very much alike…
I just noticed that this guy sells custom scales to Mini Grips (among others):
Custom Scale Division
Vintage micarta scales on a mini griptilian. I can see the possibilities…

Sterling silver won't have the tension to hold a knife in your pocket. It'll bend too easily
Chris Reeve doesn't do collabs with two exceptions, and those two are very special exceptions: Harsey and G&G Hawk
That being said, I can arrange to have the IronHeart logo engraved into a Sebenza handle, but we're looking at about $450-500 for a large sebenza, $400-450 for a small, and money would have to come up front because I don't have that kind of money to float
I actually came up with the idea for a special run of IH knives a year or two ago, but Giles and I never followed through with it
I'll pitch it at Giles again and see what he thinks
