Knives you plan to hang onto...

Any of your kids eyeballing that CM Tanto?

Unfortunately yes, I have to keep it in the safe when I'm not carrying it! That one my oldest likes and then I have another custom from Agarino80 that the middle one really likes. My son (5) likes anything and everything. Hell he'd be happy if I went and got a butter knife, told him it was something special and it would be left to him one day, he'd rub it in the girls faces for the next few years till he figured it out lol.

Nothing here is for sale.

Yo how is that Hungarian folder? You're the first person I've seen post a pic of one.
----------------------------

So far I have sold zero knives but given away lots. Lost a few too.

Might start selling, its at the point I have too many knives.

Very few of my knives have proven to be absolutely immune to finding their way to someone else's doorstep, but there are a few keepers like:

Cold Steel 3V Warcraft Tanto
Stedemon ZKC-D01
Boker Plus Peanut
Spyderco Pingo
Cold Steel Rajah II

They all fill roles so perfectly that I could barely imagine a scenario where it would be worthwhile selling or trading them - I would just end up getting the exact same thing again.

What no fixed blade EDC?

What no fixed blade EDC?

I've had to temporarily drop that because my college isn't so keen on the idea, but I do still have my 3V Master Tanto (not warcraft; that was a typo). I'm looking at getting a CRKT Civet sometime soon as a pocket fixed blade, though.

Traded a lot of knives here, some I wish I didn't. On the other hand I did score some great stuff.

I will never part with my Gerber BMF. It rode on my web gear every day during Desert Shield/Storm. When I punch out my kid will get it.

After a small modification, the Hungarian jumped to the top spot of my daily carry for a record stretch. The blade, after my mod, is very thin and slicey. Like other prodigal Spydies, the Hungarian has a gradual distal taper, and with my mod, it's a 3.625 inch scalpel. The advantages of such a blade are most perceptible when cutting food, like slicing cheese or medium boiled eggs. However, cardboard and envelopes are equally vulnerable to precise incising and easy work is made of slicing bound sheets from a book. I would not use it to pry anything stronger than a staple, another task where it excels.

Those three are all keepers, not pictured is my GEC #14 in antique yellow bone.

Recently bought a Spyderco Perrin PPT from a forum member, that one will be a keeper/user.

Love the mods you did. I agree the handle looks kinda weird with the angles. The handle is a great reproduction of the traditional hungarian ones. That shape for some reason has become a favourite over there.
