What’s your favorite knife?

[bantam5s]

Here's a few more knives I dug out, none of which I have ever used or anticipate using.   I don't know why stuff accumulates around me but it happens.  I might add them to my next gun show table.

No 1. (from top)   OKC Spax.    Never know when you'll want to open a fire hydrant.  I do think it would be an awesome and scary home defense knife.
No 2.  Lets see if anyone can identify this.
No 3. OKC Spec Plus Fighting Knife.    Never know when you're gonna get in a knife fight
No 4. OKC Neck Knife.    I guess I'm slightly more likely to wear this around my neck than Mr. T gold jewelry.  I do think it's kind of cool.
No. 5. Gerber Boot Knife?

#2 I know is a bayonet made for the French Famas rifle, I have no clue who used them or when but I don't believe it was France.
I saw this bayonet in a forgotten weapons video a few years ago, but don't remember much of it.

avator,
 I recognize the black w white aluminum slotted handle w a tanto blade. I have that in my cart waiting to be ordered. Looks to be a fun lightweight knife to carry and use.

Close geographicly  but it's for an H&K G3

That bayonet has a nice shape.

I've been using the heck outta 3 of my EDCs- a Case Sodbuster (love the hollow grind and for a non-threatening EDC, really hard to beat), an Opinel carbon-steel folder, and an older
Western L66 "boy scout"- a fixed blade gem with a stacked leather washer handle.  The Western was gifted to me a few years back along with some other knives.  Talk about a superb general purpose knife!  Big enough for a primary belt knife, small enough for meal-duty or marking lumber.

I've also been looking at a couple folded-steel Ulu blanks.  I've found several antler sheds on the property; enough for several sets of handles.

For years I carried a Gerber Paraframe II. Something changed in their manufacturing I think, as the newer ones aren't quite the same IMO.

I'll occasionally carry a Buck folder, model 345. Decent blade, got it on clearance.

I really like those keychain sized Swiss Army knives, but always seem to loose/misplace them... Unless kept on a keychain, Lol.

A few years back I purchased a Boker Magnum mini for smiles and grins. That tiny blade is very easy to misplace.

That's it, I don't know how I got mixed up.
That peg on the back of the handle goes into the gas block / front sight base, not too many bayonets that mount over the barrel.

Westerns are great, I have an F48A that was given to me as a kid and I have a little 628 that I really love.

H&K just has to do things a little bit differently.   It's part of what makes them cool and interesting.

Well the Case Sodbuster

Reminds me of the Rifleman series where the villains were always calling him that as a derogatory term for being a farmer being a worthless way to make a living to them seeking to make fast money the wrong way in life like hired hitmen. Reminds me of a scene on the show where a hitman and the man who hired him toasted each other in the bar where the man saluted the hitman saying "To the scum of the earth" with the hitman's witty retort "And to the people they pay". hehe

I have a newer Western that resembles a Schrade Sharp-finger.  Great knife and sure grip, but it pales in comparison to my collection of old Westerns.

I've also noticed my wife as often as not reaches for the L66- and that's despite having a full meat processing set (20+) Dexter Russell knives.  I also have a few Green River and some AG Russell knives but they mostly sit in the knife cabinet unless we cooking big slabs o' meat.

There's just something extra about using a knife made 50 and more years ago and keeping it in tip-top condition. 

Anyway- Sonja saw me typing this and remarked she wants to say she loves her CRKT CEO liner-lock.  It lives in her purse and sees use on the regular.  I have to touch up the edge every couple weeks with the ceramic.  The simple fact she knows the manufacturer and model should be enough.

Found it!

Been looking for this sucker since I opened the thread.  It was packed away in the attic.  I have no idea where this was made or by whom.  I acquired it from the estate of a gentleman who had been a Navy intelligence officer in Washington during WWII.  The blade is decent carbon steel and the first six inches are sharp!  The handle is rather awkward to hold but it would work.  The handle is made of teak, brass, and bone.  The scabbard is teak with a solid brass end.

Thinking about putting a tennis ball on the end and carrying it as protection from those bullies down at the senior center.

Wishful thinking…

Millie is showing us her favorite knife.  She says that she likes the color.

That's amazing. The craftsmanship looks good from here. How solid does it feel sheathed and how does it unsheath?

The grip locks to the scabbard with a rotating bayonet band like the breech cover on a Crosman 140.  Rotate the brass band to unlock and draw the blade.  The blade fits very snugly into the scabbard and the whole outfit feels very solid but it is easy to draw.  The grip is awkward but useable and the scabbard makes a handy cudgel.  I like to think that maybe Lt. Commander Veeseman carried it on some cloak and dagger operation.

Pepper seems to like red knives.

 I made a peanut butter sandwich last night, I think any dog would of liked the knife I used

LOL  true that. Rambo loved peanut butter and it was funny watching him try to get it off the roof of his mouth. If he was in the back room and you opened a jar of PB in the kitchen he would smell it and come running.

David, now that's a pocket knife!
