Most common knife owned by BF members THE POLL

[onojoe]

I have tallied the 20 most suggested knives. They are specific models from manufacturers. I will make it multiple choice, because many members have several of the choices.

Lets see which is the most common knife amongst us knife nuts

 

[Bob W]

I clicked off six of those. :thumbup: And I think if you're trying to find the single-most popular knife owned by Bladeforums members, it'd be hard to make a better list.

Most suggested. Just because it's suggested doesn't mean I would own one.

When someone asks for suggestions they usually give criteria. Most of us make suggestions that fit that criteria.

So what you posted is two different things. You're suggesting that the most popular knives owned are the most commonly suggested and it's not.

You're also to specific with certain models and not specific on others. Which is it? A specific list or a general list.

Why specify paramilitary 2 but no native version. Why the Sebenza 21 and not just Sebenza? Why only one ZT model?

 

[syco1138]

What about Cold Steel? I'd say that they're a fair bit more popular that a few of the ones you mentioned. The Voyager series in particular.

 

[ocnLogan]

Only one.

The infamous "Mora companino".

That is not at all what he is saying. He is saying that these were the most suggested knives people said in response to his question in the other thread.

Also, the title of the thread give an indication to what this poll is about:thumbup:


OP, thanks for following through with this. The results should be interesting.

I selected five Just a thought, but you might get more "checks" by being a little bit more general. For example, maybe just sebenza instead of specifying the 21. Nice list though:thumbup:

Did you read the post?

The thread title says most common owned. The body of the post says most suggested.

 

[@LeathermanGX]

There is no reference to another thread.

Somehow the rest of us understand. Oh well. Have a good one!

 

[Stand Straight]

Interesting poll OP. I got it...not too difficult to grasp the intent.

 

[abbydaddy]

I'm none of the above

 

[harkamus]

I have none of these. I've never had any of these.

 

[timberweasel]

I currently own five from this list (that's how I voted) but I have had twelve at some point or another...

I saw that after I posted. That's what you get when you are supposed to be working

I posted the idea for this poll in a previous post. I asked members what they thought the most commonly owned knife among BF members was. I got many consistent suggestions and these are them. I wanted it to be specific enough so that people would give a particular brand and model, and not just say SAK. At the same time I did not want to get too specific so that people started calling out models with specific steels or handle material. This is not perfect but I think it is a good starting point... Hope people had fun

I thought that was odd too, but it was not suggested by anyone in the original post. If there are some that did not make the list, maybe we could refine the list, take more suggestions and do another poll.

 

[sechip]

Iv'e had 4 of them at one time or another.

 

[Hackenslash]

13 out of 20.

Interesting poll, but I wonder about the 0770 to represent ZT? And I have 20 Skylines...

 

[ncz34]

It's funny how I got 5 spyderco and none of them are on the poll.

sage 2 and 3
military
manix 2
dice

But I got a mini-grip and small sebenza 21.
