Lets say the Knife God's made you choose to keep only 5 of YOUR folders that you currently have in your collection; what would they be? Not a dream team but five from what you already have-

For Me:
Custom Shop Buck 112 in S30V and Stag
Full size Grip in D2
Syderco Tenacious
Devin Thomas Damy Buck 110 in picked bone
Junglee Venom in ATS-34

Also, I think if you should add a new knife (I'm wishing for an Alias I) then do a update to your five.

Nearly TWO years: Update your Five!!!

Strider SNG
Kershaw Nakamura

Hard to say as I have more than five heirloom knives, none of which are tacticals. Probably be these...

left to right Ka Bar, Boker, JA Henckels, KutMaster, Remington...

I only own two knives - Spyderco Military and Benchmade 710. I have a couple Emerson's on order though, an HD7 and the cqc12 Comrade
 
Any second now someone is going to point out that this is a pointless exercise but screw em!

For me:

Case 6292 Premium Jack in CV steel
SAK Hiker
Hinderer XM-18
Endura 3 full serrated
Mini Griptilian

And I'd REALLY miss my 710 D2 and Ritter Grip, among others.
 
S90V PE Military (Spyderco)
ZDP189 Caly 3 (Spyderco)
BG-42 Custom 110 Sambar (Buck)
SG2 JYD 2 (Kershaw)
S30V RSK Mk.1 Griptilian (Ritter/Benchmade)
 
spyderco--captain
emerson--commander
microtech--currahee
kershaw--tyrade
mike norris--custom made
 
I own a whole lot more than two knives, but only a cheapo SAK Officer's Model and a Gerber Freeman S30V folder. The 3-1/2" blade is the max that's legal for me to carry in the city; in the hills, I carry a bigger fixed blade.
 
Hmmm...

Benchmade Griptilian 551
Kershaw Blur S30V
Kershaw NRG
Spyderco Rookie
Spyderco Ladybug 3
 
David Mosier Defiant which I carry every day
Severtech Tanto
ZT 0500 MUDD
ZT 0300 Tad Gear Desert Camo
Emerson A-100
 

1. Shane Sibert Diablo Pock Rocket.
2. Hinderer XM-18.
3. GTC Prisma.
4. Begg GG.
5. Terzuola- the white one I have.

I've actually done this. My final five ended up:

Military CF/BG42 (my EDC)
Manix in S30V (End of Days knife or heavy use)
Rukus in S30V (Just too cool to sell)
Sebbie large regular in S30V (Just too excellent to sell)
Cricket (for the desk)

I'm also thinking of adding the Fallkniven PXL.

I went through this process by selling off a lot of really excellent knives: 710 in M4, Ritter in M2, Ritter in S30V, Military in S90V, Endura 4, Military in S30V, 710 in D2, Military in D2, Manix in D2, Ti-Lite in Ti and AUS 8, Microtech, MPT, Dominator, Cuda Max, EZ Out in ATS 34, Voyagers up the ying yang, and others.
 
Sebenza Large Regular Custom M2 Blade and G10 Scales
Sebenza Large Classic Micarta/serrations
Sebenza Large Classic Bocotti Inlay
Korth Framelock
Sebenza Tanto Blade Limited to 200
 
1 Gerber Paul
2 80's Puma Duke
3 80's Puma 4star Stag
4 Emerson min cqc7
5 My new paw print large Sebenza
 
Case medium Stockman SS Amber Bone
Spyderco Para Military s30v PE
Spyderco Delica 4 PE
Small Classic Sebenza
555 Mini Grip
Case Barlow SS worn red bone
 
MOD CQD Mk 1
Kabar rigging knife (family heirloom)
Grayman Satu
Emerson Super Commander
Emerson CQC-14

I'd be upset if I had to go with only 5 though...I think I'd go with the first two and maybe pick randomly afterwards if I had to as I'd always be second guessing the choice.
