Let’s See Your Rarest Knives!

[knarfeng]

knarfeng, I bought a small Tapio puukko in Finland, then found one right here in the USA at half the price I paid for the one in Finland. I bought one of the larger versions from some hardware store (Brookstone?) back around mid 1970's too. I have several of the "CIA knives, the last one I acquired came from a CIA employee, who said it had been issued to him, so maybe some truth to the stories about them. John

I bought both of them from Brookstone in the mid '70's. A rep from Sandvik told me that the steel for both was Sandvik 12C27.

This Buck 194T was custom made (according to family friend) as a prize for SoCal car show. Was gifted to me in late 2016 resulting in my entry into this great hobby! My wife made the sheath as the original was worn out.

I collect Case Bose collaboration knives. Here is the Case Bose collab knife with the actual prototype made by Tony Bose. Tony’s knives are collectible and in demand. The prototype for the collab is my rarest.

Not many of these floating around either
Spyderco "Bi-Fold", definitely the most unique side-opener in the collection

Matt Helm made three of these IIRC after John Noveske died (maybe 4), one went to each of his sons, the other went to me. I am humbled that Matt even thought of me, never mind that he made an extra one.

Not sure how many ZT pig stickers there are out there, but they don't seem to be common.

Hmmmm....tang stamp matches the date given, the knife doesn't. The R4466 was made in very small numbers, and only with stag covers. Lots of fake R4466s out there on Ebay and elsewhere.
