The Knives of our Lives * 2
    #25579247 -

Halloween, the perfect time to start a knives appreciation topic :grin:

Show us your favorite pumpkin carvers, sushi slashers your bushcraft knife, the set you woodcut with, the first pocket knife your dad gave you that you now decades later stil carry, pocket knife, self defense knife, your sets of bayonettes, your Katana, claymore, langioule, the ka-bar of your dad - whichever blades you wish to display.

These are my main set:





The Fallkniven F1 is for utility, the Kai for the kitchen (superb blade!), the Fairbairn-Sykes is my altar's Athame (ritual dagger) and the wakizashi and tanto are for honor related purposes (real men own a sword :wink:)

Here the bunch of them are, glistening with Choji oil.

Show us the mighty and mundane, brutal and unusual, practical and tactical and what have you not.

A blade appreciation and discussion topic, who'll make the first cut?

Niiice set! Which is your favorite?

For me and my set, the Master Tanto. Everything about it is perfect and you practically couldnt drop it if you wanted to.

Most practical use are my utility Fallkniven for mostly cutting up boxes etc and my kitchen Kai (I never had a bough knife come as sharp as that, save for razorblades.

These are just my folders that I've carried at some point (with the exception of the tiny fixed blade top right). I've got a whole mess more machetes and fixed blades and folders I don't use.

My first knife is the 11th from the left on top row if you want to bother counting. My father gave it to me when I was 5 or 6. Usa made Schrade Uncle Henry stockman. Surprised I still have it.

Exact same knife I've had since like 10 but my second one; the knife is slightly different than the original one and the Phillips screwdriver has some of the sides hollowed out.

Knife/pliers that saw me through boy scouts, my adolescence, homelessness, 3 colleges, and 4 cities over about 20 years.

Poor quality photo, but this is the rest with the exception of the club and hatchets, and a few more blades stowed away in various places.
If anyone wants info on one just point out which.

Gift from a family member. They knew I liked my blades, but I honestly don't like it at all, for various reasons. Its the thought that counts though. One I plan on selling.

I don't hate that knife. I have the BG with the flint that attaches to the case. The blade seems to hold a respectable edge and the flint has saved my ass in very cold, backwoods camping situations where lighters and camp stoves work poorly as gas volatility is significantly reduced. Recently I even started batoning with it to split wood and it held up quite well. Don't get me wrong, it's a cheap knife for sure, but I would not be using my better knives to baton large pieces of hardwood.

Nice blades Lector!


Given the blade style chances are you would probably LOVE the Fallkniven F1





Its a legit Swedish Air Force fighter pilot knife, so a modern combat knife. It has VG10 steel sandwiched inbetween softer steel, its convex (opposite to a straight razor) so it has a LOT of blade strength, people use it for bushcraft, literally stick it between two stones and use it as a step-up. Very good all-weather grip.

Amanita, I showed mine with the cutting edge facing upwards, as thats the proper way to handle swords of a Daisho.


Here's a Fairbarirn-Sykes Fighting Knife, this one made by Nowill & Son of Sheffield, UK, a military knife designed to stab lethally in trenches and other hand combat in WW II, but has since been used extensively by special teams etc, and is the only style of knife that actually has a NATO catalogue number:

I use mine on my altar, ritually, but it would be a very good blade for personal defense.

Lector, that orange esee looks like it's been sharpened quite a bit more than the other. Always good to see so much use on a blade. I been thinking about picking up a smaller fixed blade to carry on me during the day.

Amanita, about how big is that knife of yours? That's a real gorgeous blade. Does that unfinished antler provide a good grip?

Asante, I've always been a big fan of those war era daggers. The v42 and the marine raiders stiletto were based on the Fairbairn. Some of the marines favored rounding the thin tips of their knives because they had a problem with them sticking into bones inside of their combatants. Little fun fact for y'all. Gorgeous piece as well.
