LETS SEE YOUR EVERY DAY BEATER KNIFE

[colubrid]

That's what I am talking about. A knife like this to me is worth more because of the character.

The 0300 looked a lot more used before I took a Sharpie to the scratches and the Scarab has been carried for years but it is office carry and use so the blade does not show nearly the use vs the handles.

Got this one new in 2000. It has many many miles on it.

Hi folks,

First post on the forum, here are my EDC beaters. One folder, one fixed - they’ve both served me well for years.

I have a H! Spyderco that has been in the washer probably over 200x that even the black handle turned green (probably from the heat dry cycle).

Still the knife is tight with no play and is great.

Oh yes, I think many of us remember! Famous for fixing many problems such as centering, lock-up, and scratches! https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/dishwasher.1472453/



Also a great way to give your knife that used look!

But seriously, I use all but a few of my knives. I find they don't look it though, unless they have an easily worn coating. I've beat the crap out of this SOG Seal Team for nearly a decade:

TGLB shows a little use:

Dcdavis's pictures have been single handedly convincing me that I need to check out CRK.

Here are my 2 of most abused knives over the last few years

Not really a "beater", but here's my EDC (CS Grik), with a broken clip that CS replaced for free.

They make good workers for sure. At least for me anyhow. Very well built
