Alright, so before the whistleblowers come in and tell me how "useless" daggers are because of the inherent lack of utility, id like to see pictures of your pocket/boot daggers! And since i may be giving in to my impulses soon, put the name and maker of your dagger too please!
I would love to start, but alas i have no dagger yet:(
 
Here's one I made early this year from a Nicholson file.

 
Mines not nearly as cool as CM'S...but here's mine.

Welcome @CVRein cool knife. Unless you gotta big boot that'll be a bit much to carry.

Stick around and enjoy the forum.

You must be a helluva swimmer!
 
Now that is COOL!

That has to be the coolest knife I've seen in a long time. Great design.

Agreed, I like how the file markings are still in the middle on the blade. Looks great, nice work :thumbup:

Thanks. Not too bad for freehand ground on a 1/3hp 1x42...
 
Ichiro Hattori Model 983B Aus8 Boot Knife. He used to make the same model for Beretta that came in a nice presentation case.

This is the oldest double edged knife I personally bought new. It is a boot knife ordered directly from Pat Crawford in Arkansas
in 1983 or 1984. I'm guessing 440c but can't really be sure. Maybe I should write to him and see.

Polar opposite; a modified el cheapo (not to be confused with El Chapo) United Cutlery Combat Toothpick... Surprisingly, a decent and cheap (free with another purchase for me!) dagger.

Cheap M-Tech style dagger, used it quite a lot to practice sharpening...

And my Aitor Botero, issued to the Spanish Army during the 80s...

Another cheap one, know nothing about it but other than it cost me $8 on a flea market. Weird old veteran was selling his knives...

I'll keep saying this...I got into knives at the wrong time, every knife i really want is discontinued, no longer made, they were all at the right price point too. Like that ZT boot knife.
