My old.Man has a fully serrated one stuffed in a drawer up in the cabin somewhere....... Impressive offering for back then....and SHARP.....😉.........My early teens were spent lusting after a Tom cat model.....😜
 
I found this well used Lobster knife when going thru my parents things after they passed. I’m not aware of any family history of it, as I had never seen it before. The date on the M.O.P reads 1907, and the opposite side reads “August Ay”. Markings on the blade read Ed Wusthof, Solingen. The Large CRK is for size reference.

One of 3 (each different) prototypes of the SOG SEAL 2000 Trident Blade Stamp knives. The previous owner of this knife lives in Japan and stated there were three different prototypes so I am only going from his information.

The website onlysog.com has the following information about the 2 versions of production knives:

The SEAL 2000 with the U.S. Navy SEAL Trident logo (1st Generation) was only sold in Japan. Per SOG, this is an exceptionally rare knife due to being a limited production.

SEAL 2000 1st Generation (1994)
Production: 100
Blade: U.S. Navy SEALS Trident logo on the SEKI JAPAN side of the blade
Identification: Powder coated blade, including the serrations

SEAL 2000 2nd Generation (1998)
Number Produced: Unknown
Blade: U.S. Navy SEALS Trident logo on the SEKI JAPAN side of the blade
Identification: Powder coated blade – less serrations

The website has this information about my prototype knife:
This SOG SEAL 2000 Prototype with the U.S. Navy SEAL Trident stamp is exceptionally rare due to its grey TiNi coating vice powder coat finish. Also, the black leather sheath is
very unique because it has the matching Trident… WHAT A COMBINATION! This is an SUPER rare knife being a Prototype for the 1st Generation SEAL 2000 Knife that was
produced by Kinryu Knives during the late 1990’s.

What is the blue one in the middle? Looks vaguely like something Joe Holt would design/make with a Shiro style pivot. Would also love to see more pics of the Richard Rogers (SLUTs? MUTs?) from your earlier post and the one at the bottom of this one.
 
Weird Wednesday, checking out this very interesting "Side Folding Knife" design by Kent W.Rudisill and Walter S. Rowe🤯

That's an Edgar Cole Chimera in teal with the borjkmans twist Damasteel blade.

The Richard Rogers in the last picture is a Mid-Utility. Here's another picture of the Slim Utility v2s that I have on me (and matching RR Pups). And one more with a matching Richard Rogers Q.

Very nice, all pieces I'd love to own one day. That trio at the end is incredible. Thanks for sharing.
 
Unique, and rather rare, a Kevin Cashen journeyman Smith bowie
