@DENIM:

M, post your stuff this forum is not an uptight pissing contest lets see your stuff

Will do! I'll sort some out tomorrow. Also, I've just ordered some new SAKs for my girlfriend and myself from that Custom Scale Division website, with different wooden scales.  German ash for me, Hawaiian Koa for the lady.  Should be with me in about a week.  The guy I dealt with, Luke, was an absolute pleasure to order from.

@Geo:

i genuinely was given a bit of a talking to about my lagioule corkscrew by a policeman obviously with nothing better to do . . . the 'blade' is about and inch and half foil cutter

Well, you might have run amok and peeled someone or something.  Screw-caps for wine bottles from now on, it's the only way to protect society from the cork screw wielding maniacs!

would have a lot less bothered had I used it and downed a couple of bottles first! or maybe that would've made it worse

I love SAK! i have a few have u ever been on the secret order of the swiss army knife site?

Geo, is it because of all of the Football violence?

[Geo]

DS - you'd totally get about 15 consecutive life sentences for that collection . . . you're a bad man 

No, not really football violence (there isn't even much of that now) - just tough line on stamping out violence of any sort . . . rules are similar in a lot of europe

A lot depends on the attitude of local police forces too

[Guest]

wow tough laws over there no wonder they carry stanley knives any thing with an edge

[Geo]

funny thing is - if someone spent a few hundred bucks on a good knife, they're unlikely to use it for crime, but certain types carrying about an easy to buy $10 stanley usually only have one intention . . .

Damn, that Dawson is REALLY old

I'll pull my collection this weekend and try to get a group shot…this might take awhile...

[DougNg]

I designed this one awhile ago. I was in a particularly bad place in my life, and designed a knife to reflect that feeling. Forged my Joe Brum

I've used it to split a let of lamb in two…single stroke and it went through both flesh and bone fairly effortlessly

[Geo]

that is one serious piece of kit 

[DougNg]

CnC Bladewerkz Dragon Karambit, modified by myself. I took the standard Dragon Karambit design, made the blade oversized, made the rippers on the spine oversized (and added more rippers), added red dymondwood scales, and James Coogler (the knifemaker behind CnC Bladewerkz) created it for me

[DougNg]

Also made by Joe Brum

I've adapted the sheath so I can carry the knife by my appendix, tip up, for quick deployment from under a shirt and can be driven up towards the liver/lungs/heart in a fraction of a second. Blade shape is an American Tanto with a zero ground front edge for maximum penetration through ribs

[DougNg]

Last one for today, Chris Reeve Knives Nkonka, limited edition in 3v steel

Blade and handle are a single piece of steel for strength, hollow handle to accept the screwdriver set (but you can remove this to stuff your other things in there or leave it empty to reduce weight

[Giles]

Fuck, I thought I was scared when I bumped into the dude in the camo gear carrying a cross bow the other day…......................

Doug the more I read your posts, the more I want to give you a hug.

Some serious hardware you have here

[DougNg]

The Brum Tanto was designed for huggers

J/K

[DougNg]

The Nkonka kind of goes with the IH motorcycle specialties theme

Chris Reeve was a competitive motorcycle racer back in the day. This knife was envisioned as something you would take with you on the road: simple, versatile design, with some of the tools you would need if a tune up was necessary

Before anyone asks, the Nkonka in 3v is no longer available. It was a limited edition of 200, never to be made again. The Nkonka in the standard A2 steel can still be found at a premium on eBay, since the entire one piece line was discontinued last year.

I can see it now, DougNg wandering some dark street when he's approached by some hoodlums… "Hey nice jeans, are those William Rast?"

In the blink of an eye the blade penetrates below the xiphoid, traverses the left lobe liver and diaphragm to reach the base of heart, terminating in the left ventricle.

(kidding, kidding, of course)
