Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades

[chrisjohnnick]

Don't think I've posted a picture of my Benchmade 940. I've never seen another one with a serrated blade like this as well. It was definitely what sealed the deal for me. Picked it up at a local Benchmade dealer a while back, but not sure how old it is, as I'm sure it had been sitting there for a while.

I love their tanto blades… ^

I got suckered into my suppliers spring sale last week. 50% price drops means you should buy two right?

To be fair, I’ve had my eye on this pair for a long time.

The Fox/Spyderco collab is a tiny gentlemans folder. I’m going to admit to it being the least practical knife I own.

The Fox El Capitan is the exact opposite in every way. Enormous, burly and will get thoroughly abused on a regular basis.

Little and Large…

Nice! You’ve inspired me to share my extremes among my flippers. Big ole Curtiss F3 and tiny Zero Tolerance 0022:

[neph93]

Excellent work. This should be a thing. That little fella really does look tiny.

[mclaincausey]

It's so small @neph93 that I find it a little awkward to deploy, though it feels and performs great once the blade is out. But it is a little titanium framelock with a real carbon scale, a quality little thing.

My EDC is usually the Zero Tolerance 0450 with titanium scales, fitted with a deep carry clip. Both of the ZT flippers have superb detente.

Epic @goosehd! Always heard good thing about those and that they're worth it.

Reminds me… I have the following inbound:

From my favorite maker, Phill Hartsfield. Love his work.

[JDelage]

I have this inbound (the one with the micarta handle). I haven't bought a hand forged knife in a while.

[henry_david]

From my Dad. Legal here in Texas and SUPER illegal in California (where I live).

[JDelage]

I had a Combat Trodoon but I had trouble firing the blade reliably. It requires quite a bit of strength actually! I ended up selling it. Superb quality.

Yeah, I agree that it's both tough to fire (like whoa) and of a rather high quality for a standard production knife.

Great fishing knife.  I’m so glad you’re enjoying it.

[Ian72]

Now just keep looking at other spyderco knives, think this might be the start or another addiction :0)

I really like them, but since I found out it is now illegal to carry one hand folders here in Germany they became way less attractive.

Same in the uk, but if you have it for a genuine reason it’s ok, and fishing counts as a good reason

Isn’t that supposed to make it more attractive?
