Let's see your good old basic fixed blades, Bowie's, Stickers, etc.

This guy just flew into the house Wednesday. I never tried out an original Sharpfinger, though I had always planned to, so when this larger sized homage to that style popped up for a lot cheaper than I expected it to, I just couldn't pass it up. A Daniel Prentice Sharpfinger. While it's not a Bowie, it's most definitely a sticker.

I picked this one up at the GEC store during the Rendezvous. I just got it back from Rob Bixby (Apostle P) with a nice, sharp and polished edge.

I picked this up off the auction site for a song (less than the sheath is worth!) so decided to give it a try. Description said 1095/15N20 of 150 layers, 57-59 HRc, and it reminded me of Fisk's Sendero model, which I've never been able to afford. The handle is ram's horn, but the edge is thick, so I convexed it on the belt sander (300 grit) and then put a micro-bevel on it with a 600 grit steel. I'm gonna hack and chop with it and see how it holds up. 10" OAL with a 5½" blade.

A little gimmicky perhaps, but this Condor Otzi arrived in my afternoon mail

Maybe gimmicky, but still nifty! Just don't take it hiking in The Alps!

I’m liking this one more and more each day!

Has probably been posted over and over... but whatever, when I think of a good old basic fixed blade, I can't help it, these pop up...

Who's the maker? Nice leuku.

Strømeng, Norway

Fantastic Andrews, Jake, and the best piece of ringed gidgee I've ever seen!

I don't doubt it can work, but I feel somehow a bit slightly insulted by this ridiculous attempt at engineering a knife and selling it as some sort of "primitive" concept. While I definitely like "simple/plain/down to the earth" concepts, i just can't get this one. Not at all.

I don't know about gimmicky Jack, they were going for a primitive look and nailed it IMO. And I like it!
Thanks for posting it.

My contribution for today is my JK M13.

Here is my latest fixed blade, its a Helle 75 ars Jubileum. I've been looking online at Helles for a couple of years. This summer a big box store started carrying a few and after looking at them they seemed like decent knives but I still didn't get one.I went on vacation last week and ended up stopping into DLT Trading. TheyView attachment 993781 had a few different ones so I decided to try this one out.
