I am relatively new to the world of Fiddlebacks but have jumped in head first. I love them and have accumulated a fair few. Still trying out all the different variations/models. There is however one that I feel I will probably never part with, this list might get longer but at the moment I am certain about one.

Do you have any that you feel that you could never part with?

this is mine :

PS : If I ever put this on the flea market please don't buy it :)
 
Andy made this Sneaky Pete for me a while back. CPM 154, 5/32", TT goodness!!! :thumbup::)





These two are also keepers. I scored the Bloodwood Runt on Fiddleback Friday with my IPhone while at Disney World for my daughter's Birthday. I was able to sneak it in just in time while my wife and daughter were on the Tea Cup ride! :D Love this Ironwood Monarch, I sharked it on the St Patrick's Fiddleback Friday. Green pinstripe of course! :thumbup::D

Hmmm
I'll have to ponder that
"Never" seems like a long time

Since you feel that way... PM me about the tangerine bolstered palmer? :D

are talking about my electric orange Palmer? That thing was my bottle opener/steak knife at Blade show. It's practically worn out 😂

Edit...
Just look. I had to change my signature 🍺

Nice one. I'll take it :)

Actually, I have its little brother in a Bushboot with the same handle/liner.
 
My first Runt . . . I adopted it and my youngest daughter at almost the same time! It's a sentimental one :)

And this Pocket Kephart that Andy made perfectly for my suit pants pocket!

Any of the carvers I come across. I only have two so far but I will keep all that I acquire in my life.
 
Never say never, but if it's up to me, it would be my Camp Nessie and Bushfinger. The Bushfinger was my first Fiddleback, and it's an old school one with super THICK handles and amazing spalting. The Camp Nessie is my favorite, and pretty rare at this point with its electric orange. It's served me well as a camp knife and fits my hand like a glove.



 
I really like these three, especially the arête and bushcrafter. I wouldn't say never though... I might consider a trade for a kmg grinder for the bushcrafter.

Very nice FB's posted here. I would have a very hard time parting with any of those.
 
It's tough to say never, but there are a few of my first Fiddlebacks that I still use more than the rest and don't see leaving:

Couple of Stainless sandwiching a Scandi - the HB goes everywhere with me


My first Fiddleback, post spa treatment - not going anywhere


This one might stick around due to rarity value unless I really need the cash
