I don't have a lot of fixed blades (I'll be rectifying that soon), so choosing again from what I actually own, I would go with my:
- Morakniv Robust (this knife is a surprising value at right around $15)
- Tramontina 18" machette
- Shun Chef's knife
- Shun Paring knife
Oh, crud! I'm out of knives. Time to go shopping! I have a thing for a Seax, but have not really found a modern version that does it for me.

1. Spyderco Street Beat - For EDC.
2. ESEE 4 - for a smaller fixed blade in the woods.
3. Dark Timber Honey Badger - An awesome, do-it-all fixed blade for the woods, that looks great and has great steel.
4. BK9 - All the chopper I need.
5. Busse TGLB - It is cool and fun.

 

[TrainedBullets]

Thus one is a lot harder than the folder thread. If I had to cut back to five, it would be:

1. Fiddleback Forge Bushfinger - Woods.
2. Fiddleback Forge Runt - People friendly EDC.
3. My old K-Bar - Sentimental
4. Fiddleback Forge EDK - Awesome EDC.
5. Fiddleback Forge Sneaky Pete - Guilty pleasure.

....Long utility, big tank of a knife, worrystone, midsize utility, smaller less-threatening utility. Can’t think of any realistic situations that couldn’t be addressed by some combination of those.

Pretty much the way I view a long term 5 fixed blade knives in terms of general size and purpose. I would like to add a beastly blade for chopping, but frankly what I use is called a machete the most, so I think I have that base covered too. Yeah. A machete is a type of knife.

I have a plan. It'll be a few months before I can add pics to this thread. The fixies are the main users. Four on the way.

I only have 3 until I get my Phillip Patton bowie.


Personal I built in V4E with Treeman scales.


I call this the Indoor Problem Solver. Blade is marked "Windlass Steelcraft" and was a gift from a friend in my 12 step fellowship. I put jade G10 on it and gun blue. It sits 6" from me in my couch, along with the other items. This makes up my home defense plan A.


Cattaraugus 225Q inherited from my grandfather who carried it in Europe while serving in the 20th Armor Division. It was in crap condition so I completely tore it down and modded/restored it.

,But I know some of you troublemakers are going to try and hold a spot open for a lightsaber.

Illegal. A lightsaber is technically an OTF.

I'm not really into fixed blades, so this will be easy.

1. Buck Vanguard Pro
2. A nice Fiskars hatchet
3. A.G. Russell 10" chef's knife
4. Zyliss cheese knife
5. A.G. Russell 4" paring knife
