If you became the knife emperor of the universe…

I think I would give everyone a choice between a Victorinox Swiss Army knife and a Buck 110. If you live in town, take the SAK and if you live in the country, take the Buck. I would be a just and mighty Knife Emperor obivously :) lol
 
I'd release a super secret knife that pretty much anyone could get in on as long as they meet the requirements of moving and changing goal posts. Coveted and just out of reach save for a few prophets who would use worming words to build a religion of grandeur of the Blade That Is But Is Not. It would basically be an ordinary bauble, useful but not an heirloom. However, the thirst for it would be irresistible. Brother against brother as they vie for what they cannot have yet burn for. Gnashing of teeth as they claw at an unforgiving sky pleading for something so ordinary and basic that they would be willing to tear down society itself brick by brick and bathe ot on flame in order to have one. Those that chance into this blade would barter for first-born children and land titles in exchange to even handle the knife for a mere moment. Discord and strife would drive the land into chaos as men fought and died over nothing.

I'd sit on a throne forged from hundreds of smatchets and steeple my fingers watching from high. In my best Mortal Kombat voice, "Fight!"

I mean, you didn't say I couldn't be an EVIL emperor.

But if you want a boring answer, I dunno...a Vic Tinker or something, I guess.

… what knife would you give to every knife bro and sis? Basically just one knife model which pretty much the entire knife nut community would appreciate. This knife will magically appear in the collection of every knife aficionado 18 and up. Whether folder or fixed, mass produced or custom, that’s up to you.

Probably an unpopular choice, but mine would be the Mora Eldris. Small enough to pocket, would probably be legal in most places (always double check your knife laws), and the handle is fairly comfy despite the compact profile. I think most of us here would have a use for a dependable small fixed blade.

What are your thoughts? Let’s keep this fun and polite!

For any emperor worth his new clothes, the first likely decree would be taking away sharp and pointy things from the commoners, not giving them. Here’s the best deal this commoner can offer you: I keep the knives I already have, and the inalienable rights (and their derivatives) that I can defend. You respect that, and I won’t reduce the number of your minions appreciably.

I bow to no emperor, I just want to be left alone. Imperial intrusions make me cranky.
