ill send you my production Duke if you wanna bang on something for awhile

 

You're too good to me. But I have no space left on my dresser! It may be time to buy a toolbox like Andy has and keep all my knives in it

 

They need to be in a fireproof gun safe.

 

That one is pretty awesome! I keep going back to look at the brown canvas and orange one!

 

Here is my pk/was/esquire drawer

Thanks... the green esquire I looked at like 20 times on the outpost so I knew I had to have it... and that baby tatanka is a great one... too bad I didn't wait a week I could have had and all black one that looked amazing... in fact... hold my beer I'll see if I can snag it hahah

Edit: nope still gotta be on restriction hahah

I'd say 1/8 TT Bushfinger would be my go-to.....

Wait, what I meant to say was 3/32" Bush Hermit in Rosewood. Come to think of it, just like the one you just put that nice edge on for me, Jarrett

 

Hees...that Baby Tatanka looks lonely and out of place...just send it to me and I'll make sure she's not lonely...No really ;-)

 

I'm mostly sure that I don't yet own the one, if I had to have only one to carry...But in my humble group my 01 Shank with natural scales and od green bolsters has earned her keep as a butchering tool [27 whole chickens quartered and BBQued for a huge feast in the Ottawa Valley]. Of course I had Jarrett put a righteous edge on it. Love the feel in my hand when I'm using it. Going to take it camping this weekend...Yes there's big chunks of animal protein involved!

 

Awesome collections! :thumbup:

 

how am i supposed to know which one is the one unless i try all of them!?!?! <insert maniacal laughter here>

i have tried the hiking buddy, EDC II and the ED Karda. the ED Karda was the winner of the 3, but the blade was just a bit too short. so, i went back to that comparison thread to see what else is similar. needless to say, i have a Shank coming any time now. i also have a KE Bushie coming that i will pick up from a member later. i realize that is different than the EDK, but it is one that i have always wanted to try.

there are still a couple others i would like to try (bearcub and gaucho currently top that list, i think).

when i get the new ones, i will report back.

(this was all just my long way of subscribing to this thread )

EDIT: I have tried the bushfinger, recluse and kephart years ago. i think i may also revisit the BF and especially the kephart....i remember liking that one the best of those 3 (even though i wanted to like the BF the best).

 

It will have to be my very first fiddleback 1/8" 01 Bushcrafter with cherry crotchwood. There are times I wish the handle was a little thicker like my other Bushcrafter, but it's still an awesome knife. I love how non threatening it looks and the knife is just so versatile. And the handle material is possibly my favorite ever

 

I actually only have one, my choice was a scandi Bushboot.

When new:

 

I'd say that's a pretty good choice! It's a beauty! :thumbup:

Actually it was a pretty bad choice, these are so rare that it took me like a year to find one!

But it all worked out nicely in the end :thumbup:
