One knife. That's it!

[Krissig12]

Folder: Either my pm2 or BM 707

Fixed: CS master hunter

That means I'd have no kitchen knives either. So it must be a fixed blade at least 5 inches. Needs serrations too. Tough enough for mild abuse. No complex parts.

I'd go for a Reeve Pacific.

Benchmade 940-1 S90V, it's just everything I want in a knife

One knife... Well, TODAY, my choice is an Emerson CQC-8 (or maybe an 11, but I've never owned one. Haha). That being said, my answer would have been different 6 months ago, different 6 months before that, and extrapolate that for the last 10 years. I think the hardest part of that decision would be folder vs fixed. If I went fixed, it would be a Survive! GSO 4.1.

I would get a Mora Companion, because it is renowned for versatility and toughness. Also, since I am a knifemaker, I like to study different knife designs, and this is one I have never handled before.

They come in both carbon and stainless steel. I would get the carbon, because carbon is usually easier to sharpen.

Why would it need serrations? Personal preference?

Actually thinking of doing this! Feeling a bit excessive lately, so down to one.............. have to go with my Shirogorov mod 95, until a Turpin Strife surfaces.

I refuse... to answer this question.

Ahhhh... Denial.... It's fun to watch addicts squirm at just the thought of.... Gasp! ONE.

My fixed blade would be a Busse.

 

[ginaz]

i could get through most of my life quite comfortably with a:

Benchmade 950 or 710
Spyderco GB or Southard
Cold Steel American Lawman
Buck 110

 

[JSutter]

For now? Something without legal issues where I live, work, and play:

Hmmmm. How about the GEC Radio Jack with Gabon Ebony scales.

 

[Aias]

if no restrictions on carrying a fixed blade, my TGLB; otherwise it would be a tough call between my Emerson CQC 13 and my super 7. I would feel really bad about not having my GEC Missouri trapper (natural stag).

I refuse... to answer this question.

EK model 5 combat bowie, it's beefy, with a wicked point do you can use it for nearly every cutting chore.

I'm assuming multitools aren't affected by this.

I'd keep my Sebenza since it's a very versatile folder which the manufacturer will refurbish if needed. For a fixed blade I'd choose my "Trueno", by a local maker.

 

[hank_612]

1 knife......Large Sebenza

If it was one fixed Survive GSO 5.1 in elmax or 390/20cv.

Basically to cut bread. Further, its great to have a saw. I like serrated blades for certain tasks. I don't need it on a folder though.
