How many of your knives users?

Truthfully, I count them all as users, it's just that I don't have the need for a knife that much. I've always said that the slipjoints I carry will do the vast majority of what I need a knife for, and that I use my big folders just as an excuse to pull them out and use them! But I love to collect, carry, and use (when I can) those large folders I have. I guess I just get a lot of comfort out of having that knife in my right front pocket if I ever need it, or sometimes, just to show it, and even then I'm using it so that sorta counts as a "user".:)
 
All of them. I buy, sell, trade a lot of knives off the forums since there are no knife shops within 90 miles, but I only keep the ones for which I have a practical use. I don't have the room or desire to collect a bunch of unemployed tools.
 
I have a few that I don't use and want to stay looking nice, mainly some traditional folders. The others I have for daily use, so maybe 80% use and 20% collect if I had to guess. I might not collect that much in reality as I like to use a lot of my knives.
 
I use all of mine. Some just go into retirement. I carried a benchmade 690 for probably 5 years. Now it pretty much just sits in a drawer.
