Here is another by Leo Todeochini, known here in the UK simply as Tod.

I am actually more fortunate to know Vince and Grace as friends, but yes I do have a kard that he made. Sometime in the next few years he might even make me something a lot longer with a basket type guard, hilt.

Yes, honestly the Evans are one of the main reasons I go to Blade anymore, I haven't actually purchased anything there in years. I mostly just go and spend time talking with them. I was fortunate enough to be able to commission a piece this year and I hope in the future I might be able to commission something a bit longer as well, although I'll probably go for something of a bit earlier time period.

Here are a couple daggers I've got.
The first one is a Ka-Bar 2751.

Second, a BRKT-made Ek Commando 2.

In addition, I'm currently working on a dagger of my own... Don't have any photos yet, but I'm nearly finished shaping the blank. It's going to be a 9" double-edged coffin-handle. This will be my fourth knife, and my first one in probably 9 or 10 years. Fun getting back into it.

Here are a few of mine. Daggers are indulgance knives. I have a few others but no pics of them. I have always wanted a Graves dagger and now after this thread I think I need one of those Winkler daggers too!

I friggin love the looks of EK knives. I definitely need one.

Vintage Gerber Guardian from the '80's

Vintage Anton Wingen/Othello from the '80's

Replica V-42 Dagger, probably made by H.G.Long Company in 1990 for the John Ek Commando Knife Company in the US.

I remember these daggers being carried by some of the guys at an army base I spent a few months in. I did not know it was a Loveless design. Now I must have one !!!

 

[Robert.B]

my only dagger, an 80's model kershaw trooper made before they put a serial # on the guard. Got it in bad condition for $30 at a pawn shop and fixed it up (had no sheath either so made one).

 

[Thrustus]

I always thought the Gerber Guardian was a Blackie Collins design?

Ive made a few and owned a few.

This may not count.But i like it and carry it daily.

Those two "pocket smatchets" are pretty neat. No daggers here, but they can be very attractive to look at.

 

[Chris Pierce]

I missed that the first time. Stag handled dagger, bandaged thumb!

 

[festerfromnzed]

Only got a couple..but yeah theyre cool

I think these Microtechs qualify:

Thanks for the pocket smatchet moniker.I like it! As for the thumb,it rare i dont have some small injury to the hand.I should wear gloves,but they spoil the "feel".Here's a Case boot knife i dug out of the closet.I always thought they were cool.

This is my grandfather’s dagger, don’t know much about it, the guys over at the Bernard Levine's Knife Collecting & Identification forum think it’s a theatre knife. Probably made it himself some were out in the pacific.

Here's one of mine. Nothing special, but I haven't seen this one pop up yet. I like the wider profile daggers more than those needle point ones like the FS.

Not very impressive, but here is what I have.

I love the "push" dagger. What make and model?
