Recommendation? I'm planning on buying a large, off-the-wall folder to commemorate an event -- a conversation piece

[Stahlmann]

I'm planning on buying a large, off-the-wall folder to commemorate an event. No specific use, just something fun and reasonably-priced to add to the collection. A conversation piece. So far the leading candidates are the Svord Giant Peasant Knife with an 8" carbon steel blade or a Boker XXL Kalashnikov Automatic. Ideas? Comments? Thanks.

How bout a big Douk Douk?

Be sure to move your fingers out of the way of the blade on that one, or it’ll remove them for you.

I already have a Giant Douk,... GREAT recommendation though!

Opinel #13. 20 inches long. Fantastic watermelon/picnic knife

The wooden handle could be carved to help with the commemorative nature of the knife.

Cold Steel XL Espada?

Can't get much odder than a Sifu with 5 finger choils and a bigass recurve, reasonably priced is relative

Actually - YOUR Navaja and the one I had came immediately to mind. You could keep those ON the wall and they'd still be OFF the wall conversation pieces. Repost your photo??

This is the Navaja I had - 14" open. That was an off the wall folder That's a 14" dia. beret the knife is placed on.

More conventional is this COLD STEEL X2 VOYAGER Serrated lock back.

Another at over 13" long open with a 6" blade. A big cool folder.

Cold Steel is the way to go. Plenty of big knives with the strongest lock to protect your fingers if ever used!

How'd you know I had it tucked in the bag for stag Saturday?

I had never seen the Giant Svord Peasant before.
That looks like it would be a fun knife.

NOT A FAN OF KNIVES THAT LARGE...OTHER THAN KUKRI STYLE.

Does it need to fold? Depending on the occasion you could also MAKE a giant knife out of wood/plastic for cheap. I made a giant wooden knife as a sharpening demo piece once…
