Knives

[MarineUKFan]

Us guys all have a favorite knife. Let's see yours.

This is mine. It's a Gerber 600. Bought it over 30 years ago and it and I have been through a lot together......

This is my other favorite. A German knife that my grandfather brought back with him from WWII. He gave it to me years ago and I haven't polished it or anything.



Serial numbers on the knife and sheath match up....

I have Dad's 3 blade old Old Timer. He like high carbon blades and whetstones and has sharpened it into looking like an ancient scimitar.

This was my dads. It’s a 971 Puma Game Warden. We gave it to him as a Father’s Day gift in around 1971 or so. Handmade in Germany, stainless steel blades and will still shave you. It hasn’t been touched in years, but it sits in a place of honor next to my “shadow box” on the mantle. The action is still as stiff, with no wiggle or give as it was the day we gave it to him.

I have over 300 knives of all kinds. I do not have a favorite pocketknife as I am fickle and a knife whore.

My groomsman’s gift from my best friend serving as his best man, Circe 2005, and my constant tool/weapon every day since.

Anyone object to swords included?

I guess I get that, but it seems most folks (at least down south, and rural areas in general, from my personal experience) do have one favorite knife and a story to go along with it.....passed down to them, a special gift, etc. I guess my point with this thread isn't to really see the knives per se, but to read the stories that go along with them.

My paternal grandfather, the great man who’s name I bear, gifted me his - wanted me to inherit it- right before he passed.

Have a couple of standard pocket knives that my dad left me. One rides on the floor between the drivers seat and the door. Easy to get to.

And this:

Probably my most sentimental is my grandpa's old hunting knife. It just sits in a cabinet. As far as a favorite goes, excluding my hunting knives, whats in my pocket at the time is my favorite, and I go through them fairly quickly. They get used and subsequently broken.

I currently carry a 3 blade Old Timer like this one,, this one has been with me for 3 years now,, my previous was a yellow handle case trapper, it came up missing,, I laid it down and some godless cretin walked away with it.. I hope the mutherfucker gets cancer.

I have probably owned close to that number,, but somehow have not been able to keep up with them,, I wish I had them all,, especially some of the old Barlows that my grandfather gave me,, or even some of the old Boy Scout knives Ive had

Kind of a sore spot. My favorite Grand Dad had a son who basically wasn't worth the lead to take him out. He "inherited" all the knives etc.
