Knives You Like Enough to Own Spares?

Have you have ever had a knife that worked so well for you that you had to have more than one of them? Anymore you will find me with a Ray Laconico custom or a Fallkniven pretty much all the time. I just can't get enough of either. The Fallkniven F1 just seems to work so well for me that I have somehow ended up with 4 of them. Even my wife likes them.

I am sure that a lot off us have some knives that are so great that we keep identical spares on hand (moras!). Post them up!
 
Moras & Vic. S.A.K.'s
Also as for me personally it's Bryan Breedens Knives, When I'm outside it's my 7" PathFinder, I have a few more on order, Great Knives !!!!
 
Sebenza, MOD CQD, Spyderco Military, Camillus CUDA Maxx, Opinel and Douk-Douk variants. Mostly I don't like getting 2 or more of the same basic knife because there are often others similar enough I'd rather have the slight variety.
 
nice F1 collection there matthew...:eek: i had one of those, but parted with it awhile back....:( yes i regret it...
i don't have any knives that i have 2 of... though there are a few that i wouldn't mind pairs of...
 
Victorinox Soldiers and Farmers, and Buck 110`s. I honestly don`t know how many of each I have. I`ve got them in my wife`s Mustang, her Equinox, my Ranger, the shop, all over the place! :o

SAK Farmer and Busse Sarsquatch.
I'm still on the prowl for the perfect/affordable mid-size. If I find it, I will probably have 4-6 so I don't have to find another.
 
I only have duplicates of two knives... Vic Farmer and BRKT Mini NS.

Jeff
 
Hmmmm....I don't have any duplicates yet. I keep buying then selling trying to find the perfect one for me. Thankfully I haven't found it yet! This is half the fun!

I do however have a JK Keppy that I am considering getting a brother for...
 
I have a Spyderco Endura 1, 2, 3, & 4:D

I would also like the Cold Steel clip point Voyager more if it had a better pocket clip. I think the clip is too stiff so the knife is hard to remove from the pocket
 
For me, it's the Delta 5 series of kits from Darrel Ralph. I find the overall size and shape to be just right, and they combine a thick spine with a great slicing blade. I have made four of of them, with the last one (contoured handle with black G-10 scales) coming pretty close to being my ideal hiking knife.

All the best,

I have several Mora 760's stashed in various places. The only other dupes I have are from where I bought a knife for myself that my wife liked, so I got her one too. (How can you not?) That's happened twice now.
 
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Cold Steel Finn Bear. I have a couple of those little cheapo beasts.:thumbup:
 
The only EXACT duplicate I have is the SAK Farmer. But some very similar Opinels and slipjoints. I used to have 3 Himalayan Imports Tin Chirras.
 
I'm too poor to own spares, and there are too many different knives to get. The only knife I'd really like to have a spare of is my Spyderco Mini-Manix. That is a good folder. As far as fixed blades, I suppose it wouldn't be bad to have another Breeden Peacemaker, but I don't foresee that blade ever getting damaged with my use.
 
I dont have any exact duplicates. Multiples of the same thing mean I couldn't have as many different blades. I guess it will all change when I find "my precious"
