favorite knives no longer made, folder or fixed

Despite the fact that I sold all 3 of mine cuz I needed cash, I'd have to say the REKAT SIFU.
 
Al Mar Fang
Will & Finke California Bowie
Pacific Cutlery Wee-Hawk

I have the AG Russell Sting ;)
 
I really miss the Blackjack Mamba knives. I still love my early Mamba, with the convex ground edge. It is a fine knive. I have one of the later Mamba 7L or whatever it was listed as also. Standard grind, not near as impressive. Blackjack in general was a great company for different design type knives. I wish I had gotten one of those cool axes they made for awhile.
 
The benchmade versions of the emmerson CQC7. I liked the 3.75 inch version. BM 975. The QC was great and lock up tight. Birdsong black-T coating works.
 
Blackjack AWAC
Blackjack HALO
Blackjack WASP

Benchmade round hole AFCKs

Ek Bowie

Gerber Bowie
Gerber Parabellum

Spyderco Executive
 
Just thought of another one.

The Pacific Cutlery Jeff Imada High Hollow Custom Balisong ground by Jody Samson.
 
My favorite fixed blade without a doubt is the Busse straight handled Battle Mistress. Beauty and function in a great packages together. Plenty of other kickass Busse blades, but I'd love to see this flagship come back.
 
I really miss the Benchmade Leopards and Leopard Cubs. I was also rather fond of the REKAT Pioneers.
 
Here's my list:

Rekat Sifu
Rekat Carnivour
Rekat Carnivour Cub
Spyderco Wayne Goddard Lightweight

With the # of Rekat's in this thread so far, some enterprising mfg. should really either talk to Christina, or Pat Crawford for those designs. A Sifu and Carnie with an axis lock (or any lock that's ambidextrous) and pocket clip that's ambidextrous would just sell. The rolling lock is great when tuned, but would only be right or left handed, not ambidextrous.

Could you also tell that I like recurves?

Almost any of the old Al Mar knives, they were just beautiful! I'm just glad I still got a couple!

easyrider already took my two choices, the benchmade leopards, and the rekat pioneers. I also miss the Edi genesis, and the calypso and Jr from Spyderco.
