A few knives I have picked up over the years.
starting from the left, A Richards tent brand used when I was a scout.2 A knife bought when I was in Africa.3 Made in india.4 Tribal knife from India.5 A home made skinner ,I was only 17 ,made from a car spring. 6 Has a history, ruff cut was taken from a prisoner in Africa, given to the wardens son then passed on to me .11" car spring blade Australian hard wood handle (Jarra) .7 A Puma.
None of them are real fancy like most on this forum but they are part of my history.

Thanks for sharing.

Fancy shmancy , a knife with history is far more intresting than one without.
