Do you still have your first knife?

The first knife is long lost but....I have the one I bought with my First job money earned.
I can't post any pics because the apps need safari 12.? to download! Ideas?

You need a pic hosting site. Imgur is good and free. Upload your images there, select your pic and click the box for "message boards and forums". Copy and paste that link here.
 
I bought this in approximately in 08/09 - it went missing for several years as it was lost in my old college roommates car.

He found it under the seat when he went to sell his car in 2013, and i got it back then.

I remember buying it at the gun show in Savannah Ga and scoffing at the price of a $60 dollar knife and settled on this one for $35

Losing this knife led me to google "best pocketknife" which ultimately led me to bladeforums, the rest is hi$tory..

My first knife was given to me by my Great Grandpa when I was 7 years old. It was a Case XX Stockman.

I went with him to Grimes Hardware in Fairborn, Ohio and he bought himself a brand-new Case XX.

When we got out to the car, he gave me the old one. I carried that knife for many years but eventually lost it. I am still in possession of his gold Hamilton pocket watch though!

We were allowed to carry our knives to school when I was growing up. I remember playing "stretch" with it at lunch time on the playground.
 
I got this Boker Tree Brand from my uncle who was a civilian contractor with the Army in Germany back in 1960. My brother got one too but I don't know if he still has his.


I think I've also got some other kid's first knife - found it at an estate sale and it just looked like it needed a home.

I collect people's first knives for sale at garage sales or anywhere else to feed my main-brain-game-frame's powers with all the good-time sentimental energy.
 
I don't have my first knife or any knife from my childhood. My daddy took my SAK and pen knife from saving up Cracker Jack and Bazooka gum point wrappers to collect prizes. Now that I think about it. I got no knife left from any time until I turned 45.😢
 
Bought this little guy back in the early 70s.
Pretty beat but still useful.
