If money wasn’t wasn’t a problem

A yacht. :D

Also the entire catalog of any knife company I was even moderately interested in just to handle all the models and see what I liked best and what worked best for me.

I'd also contact Salem Straub (and some of the other skilled craftsmen that support this forum) and get some gorgeous forged blades to provide the appropriate decor.

Then, once I figured out what production folders I really, really liked I would send them off to Razor-Edge-Knives to get reblades in whatever new and interesting steels caught my fancy.

Oh. I'd also pick up a custom Sendero and one-off bowie by Jerry Fisk and a cool button lock folder by Rod Olson.
 
Actually, a CNC milling machine, and a heat-treat and nitrogen quenching setup. Then, I wouldn't have to wait on anybody else's list.

The problem with asking such an open-ended question of us troublemakers, is that we've all spent a lot of time thinking about what we would do if money wasn't a problem, and the answers are as variable as the number of people in the database. I've gotten to the conclusion that the only way to do a knife the way I want, is to do it myself. So, my answer can't be a specific knife, because it hasn't been made, yet.
 
Wicked Edge sharpening system. And a dedicated table, which would probably cost more than the WE TBH lol. (You said money wasn't a problem).
Stinker time (I'm not being super serious with this): money can't buy happiness. But I will agree that money will make you worry less, and it is nice to acknowledge the nicer things in life
EDIT: How could I forget about the NON FLIPPER FLIPPER!

If money were endless, I'd hire a custom knife maker to make a tanto bladed knife out of CTS-XHP, and then engrave bananas all over the flats of the blade. I'd do the following:
1) take pics,
2) post them,
3)sit back and watch myself become a BFC legend.

More seriously, I'd probably hire a custom maker to make me a 0.25" Becker Machax out of 3V, with some nice G10 scales. Pedestrian, I know. But that would be a BAMF knife...
 
Porsche GT2 RS, does that count? Very sharp around corners. :D

Okay okay, actual knife. ZT 0999 from the secondary market or more likely a custom built Peter Rassenti Integral, probably a Nirvana without much bling (sculpted handles, satin blade, no Timascus or Damasteel stuff) oh and a custom Olamic Rainmaker.
Three grails right there.:oops::D:thumbsup:
 
..... it would be a Large Micarta Inkosi Insingo...cant find one anywhere, they seem to be all sold out. Been wanting one for my birthday..
 
I'm pretty happy with what I have now, actually. I know that I would pick up the few knives I have been wanting to try:

Spyderco D'Alara
LionSteel TM1
CRK Small Insingo
Buck Froe
Carothers EDC
Carothers Field Knife or a Survive! GSO

After that, I'm not sure. Maybe some really nice kitchen knives.

Realistically, all I will probably ever buy is the Buck, maybe the Spyderco, and hopefully the Insingo.
