Very first, cheap knock off SAK I found in a chair cushion.

Forty one years ago at the ripe age of 8, my father gave me a barlow knife. I don't remember the brand.

 

[p_mcmanis]

First knife I paid for myself was a benchmade 710.

 

[RetiredGuns]

$2.99 for an Imperial Barlow from the dime store - 1969ish

My dad gave me a slim little 110-style when I got my Totin' Chit at 8 yrs old. I had it for a year or so and lost it. I wish we could remember what it was. A Schrade perhaps?

I went through a series of Victorinoxes and United Cutlery Mall Ninja Specials during my teen years.

When I found BF and got back into knives as an adult, my first "good" knife was a Kershaw Leek.

I still carry it sometimes. It is a little 2 bladed Schrade slipjoint that belonged to my dad before he gave it to me.

First knife was a Cold Steel Urban Pal. What a piece of junk. Not comfortable in the hand, serrations, and the steel was soft as butter.

I made up for this mistake by picking up a Benchmade 740 Dejavoo.

 

[J.Mattson]

My first knife was an SAK, had it since I was in grade school.

The first knife I paid for was a delica 3.

 

[Brad Greulich]

An old no-name folder from my dad, my first real knife was a Timberline Zambezi, I started out big

 

[5370H55V]

A vic SAK. First good knife was a sog trident. Stumbled onto BF while looking for info about it, and have never looked back.

 

[knoefz]

My first was a no name slipjoint (I got it from my mom and dad), replaced with a double bladed Victorinox slipjoint by my grandpa after I lost the first knife on a walk with him. Still have this knife.

buck 110

 

[STDK]

Sabre Daddy Barlow from the Dollar General Store about 40 years ago. I still have it.

 

[marthinus]

Old slippy given to me by my grandfather. Still have it, but don't use it. Then my SAK climber. 18 years ago. Still in my pocket.

 

[Lanza]

Case stockman given to me by my grandfather over 50 years ago. I wish I could find it.

Frost Cutlery lockback folding hunter(basically a Buck 110 clone) with multi-color wood scales. I had thought it was a 110 of some sort, but i saw a few of them in an outdoor supply store recently and realized that was it, instant recognition. i might have to go buy one of them for nostalgia's sake.
