What knives would you guys own if you could only own three? My decision is pretty simple because I do not have a lot of fixed blades or a lot of machetes, axes, etc. My choice would be...

1) Spyderco Paramilitary 2

2) ESEE 4

3) Leatherman Wave

I can't either but lately I have been really happy with my Paramilitary II and my Blind Horse Knife Bushcrafter. The misc. would be hard as I would be stuck between a SAK Pioneer and some type of machete/khukuri/chopper.
 
Me neither. But if someone held a gun to my head, these are the ones I'd choose:

Folder: Large Sebenza
Fixed: Swamp Rat Camp Tramp
Misc: Leatherman Multitool
 
Folder: Spyderco Manix 2
Fixed: Busse B11
Misc: HI Munk or CS Gurkha Khukuri


Or just do my EDC:

Spydie Resilience or Tenacious
CS Master Hunter
Leatherman Juice 2 or Skeletool
 
Folder: Paramilitary 2
Fixed: Scrapper 5 LE (infi)
Misc: my Dad's old Case moose pattern that he got from my Grandfather...it's not just about performance.

Maybe in a pinch my misc. blade would be one that's attached to a chain saw

Wonderful answer buddy.:thumbup:
Cutting tools come and go for me. From what I have right now....
Folder: Original large Manix
FB: Becker Brute
Misc: Medium weight tomahawk

These are not always the wisest choices for me, but generaly practical enough for the local environment, to do what I need. They also tickle my fancy at this point in time. Subject to change generaly due to the season.
 
folder, does a Leatherman Wave count, it folds?
Fixed blade, large Fiddleback Forge Nessmuk w/scandi grind.
Misc. Bruce Culberson's Bolok that I have on order. 12" long, 7/32" thick forged 5160 wood chopping, Zombie slashing, boar slashing machine.

It's my take on the Nessmuk trio.
 
More or less - what I have depending on what 'misc' means.

Fixed: Becker BK-11
Folder: SAK Huntsman
Misc: (BK-2 or a BK-9 or a HI CAK - a big one or a decent tomahawk - whichever one in that order that can first be considered a 'misc'. I already have the BK-2 and tomahawk)
 
If I had to, I would be well-set up with:

Folder = BM Mini Grip

Fixed = SDS custom Nessmuk

Misc. = Victorinox Spirit multitool

However, I wouldn't be happy to give up my others . . .
 
Out of the knives I own it would go something like this

folder- zt 200

fixed- swamp rat ratmandu

misc- condor golok
 
Spyderco Military in Carbon Fiber
Busse BWM
Izula

Leatherman Skeletool CX and Case Tony Bose swayback jack both get honorable mentions.
 
Folder: Zero Tolerance 550
Fixed: ESEE-4 (Black Blade)
Misc: Leatherman Super Tool 300 (Black)
 
Folder: Spyderco Salt 1
Fixed: Rat 4 (ESEE 4)
Misc: Leatherman Wave
Other: 26in camp Axe
