"For the rest of my life" is an unknown quantity. What I need knives for is another unknown so one must cover as many potential needs as possible for a period of one day up to 80 years.

I will cover the following categories:

1) Multitool
2) SAK
3) Folder
4) Small and Light Fixed Blade
5) Larger Fixed Blade

I will then choose 2 in each category ... as one can be lost/broken/used-up/etc.

My choice from my current stock is then as follows:

1) Leatherman Wave + Leatherman OHT
2) Victorinox Explorer + Victorinox CyberTool
3) Large Sebenza/Insingo + Hinderer XM24
4) Al Mar Mini-SERE Operator + Fällkniven F1
5) Crusader Forge TCFM2 + a Busse I don't yet own

Very large tools like axes and machetes not considered per OP instructions.
 
If I include my cheapy Santoku kitchen knife, I still have under 10 total blades :eek:
