Classic Black and Steel Traditionals

[Will Power]

Only fixed I have that's all black. Buck Gen-5 Skinner, surprisingly versatile smaller knife, will gut fish, food prep and make fire-sticks, comfortable in my hand anyway.

Buck Knives offer/ed plenty of Black/Steel to choose from. OH

I think these are the last of the black knives I haven't shown here before.
If I showed any of these before, please forgive my showing them again.

That is nice Will. It has a Bob Loveless look to it also.

Markesharp Many thanks and yes I can see that. It's 'only' Buck's usual 420 but the thin edge gets a very satisfying edge to it and if you were minded to skin animals, it would be ideal.

While we're on the subject of Bucks, this was a very kind gift from Old Hunter when I asked him to get hold of a CASE Stockman for me last year, great stuff Bruce

Well, this has been an enjoyable thread to browse through. Some wonderful knives in here - old and new.

 

[OldHercDude]

I don't have as varied or as large a collection as many here. Here's what I have.

Left to right, and top to bottom:
Buck 113, Ebony
Boker Barlow, Grenadilla
Boker Barlow, Bog Oak (light black/ very dark brown, with hints of a greenish clay in the crevices, difficult for me to get a good photo)
Case single-blade Pocket Hunter, Ebony
Case single-blade Barlow, Black Synthetic
lionSTEEL CK01, Ebony
Alox Cadet, Anodized Black aluminum

And the food-prep stuff. These three knives have become the only ones I use.

6" Chef, 5.5" Rocking Santoku, 4" Paring.
