About time I contributed something around here. Show off your fixed blades!

What is that long handled one, 5th down on the right, above the matchete w/hand guard?

And which do you feel are the "best" of the bunch?
 
what are the 4 knives below the Condor and to the right of the Buck packlite in that pic?
 
I have plenty of fixed blades like Ka-Bar, Becker, Condor, Buck, and a variety of Scandinavian brands. Unfortunately though I don't have pics of any of these; most of the best photos I've have available are traditionals. I need to take more photos...

I got this one yesterday purchased from the exchange last week courtesy of leagleagle....took her out back to have some fun this morning. I put a mirrored finish on the edge yesterday and broke her in today. SYKCO 511 this is the only one I have pics of at the moment. You can check my sig for my favorite fixedblade :D

Ok so I said heck with it and rounded them all up for a family photo. I have a mixed bag of customs and production knives. Enjoy....

Those were all made by Big Chris customs. The first and smallest one is just over 7 inches long, 3 inch blade and .140 3V.

The second one down is just over 10 inch long Bowie made from S90V.

Third down is definitely the most comfortable knife I have ever used. It is around 12" OAL and made from .140 3V

Finally the Grob! Just over 18 inches of 3V, .300 at the spine and a flat grind down to a .020 thick edge..... It chops :)

RDog, I would have to say my favorites and the best really are a toss up between the 3 smaller Big Chris customs. All have comfy handles, nice sheaths and slice like crazy! Chris has just about mastered edge/grind geometry in my book. In fact, I already have him making me another knife now.... 16 inch blade of 3V.

Who made the Tan knife, top left?

If you are referring to the Bowie, that would be Jake Hoback. It is .200 CPM 154. That is my first from him but hopefully not my last, he does impressive work.
 
Some nice fixed blades on here! I'm really digging the "tree shaker" and those Bark river tantos make me want to do horrible things to my bank account....
 
I used to collect fixed blade knives so I have quite a few. This is an old photo that shows most of my knives:
