The victorinox classic should be the leader based on the amount produced. Even my wife has a couple of them. What makes this interesting is what the people who love knives own.I've owned most of the knives on that list, but I only voted for the ones I currently own.
I'm surprised the Para II is leading the Delica. There is no doubt that Spyderco sells more Delicas. That shows the bias towards the premium end among knife nuts.
It was mentioned before, but if we added stockman, peanuts, trappers, sodbusters, and other slip joint patterns to the list (even with specific brands), and invited the traditional forum over, the PM2 would have some serious competition. Not to mention that many traditionalists probably own a SAK classic.
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.
I suspect a lot of members have a Vic Classic, but either don't realize it or they don't consider it a knifeBut those are patterns not specific knives from a maker. I'd say the case sodbuster or sodbuster jr. would have been a good addition though. I'm amazed more people haven't had vic classics, I swear everyone I know has one.
The Vic Classic is very small and not much of a knife.
