I agree with you, unfortunately a lot here do not see it the same way.
Most are still experimenting to see what this or that knife feels like and how well it works for them. I do too from time to time. I have just South of one thousand knives. They range in age from 1892 through 2010. I've not used anywhere near all of them and I likely never will. I have two dozen of some patterns by the same maker and a dozen examples of single patterns made by various makers such as the Sportsman pattern and the Outers pattern. And I have a full set of the sheath knives made by George Schrade, butcher knives made pre-war by LF&C, Marbles, Remington, Kinfolks, Case, Jean Case, A. Kastor & Bros., Germania, A.W. Wadworth, Dunlap, Fulton, Streamline, Fairmount, Syracuse, Kent, Imperial, Kingston, Sta-Sharp, Kwik Kut, Colonial, Craftsman, Herters, Ulster, Western States, several customs, a Becker BK11 etc. But I always come back to my own favorite duo for skinning and butchering chores, both in old inferior 1095HC carbon steel, both now discontinued.
