hey,

what is that japanese knife type in your icon called! i've been wanting one for ages.

i seem to recall that cold steel used to carry something like that?

my most other favorite cultural knife in the "it's been around for ever, it's simple, it's sturdy, it's got utility" is the puukko

Bladite, My avatar is a picture of some artistry by the amazing Scott Slobodian. It's his piece called "Summer" and more info on it can be found here: http://www.bladegallery.com/knives/knife.asp?knifeid=300&alt=one&pics=big Gotta agree with you on the puukko's. Good knives for pure cutting that can be gotten ridiculously cheap from places like Smokey Mountain Knife Works, Ragweed Forge, and Kellam Knives Company. Hmmmmm.......how about a Becker puukko maybe??

Porcupine, That's a nice pic of the BK-5 relaxing in the back yard!
