Show your beat to hell CPK

[Nathan the Machinist]

This is a thread to show your hard-used CPK.

As my good friend Tai Goo used to say: "Scratches are beautiful"

Show me your used CPK and talk about yourself. What do you do? How do you use your knife in your daily grind?

Someone beat the hell outta my knife:

Now that’s what I’m talking about. I was starting to think that CPKs were meant for display.

Lookin’ good, 91bravo !

Thanks Spyderman. Using a CPK is part of the beauty. The handles are just so ergonomic and can fit a wide range of different sized hands. Use it in all its glory and enjoy as a lot of thought went into the details of the knife, that make it an excellent user!

I took some damage but the HDFK remained unscathed!


Truth is, this was light work for the HDFK.

I’m in construction. An electrician by trade.

I’ve been a bad owner to my EDC2. I use it every day. I have cut through drywall, shielded low volt cable, insulation and tons of cardboard.
I’ve tried to catch some of the scratches in these photos but they don’t do it justice. She’s ugly!!!

I love this knife, but I don’t baby it.

I didn't know you were tight with Tai. I have a few of his knives and he made one special for me, which is a really great knife. Cool guy!

All my CPKs see lots of use, but I wouldn't describe any as beat to hell. It would take a couple lifetimes to beat a CPK to hell, imo

I haven’t put my HDFK to use yet, but I agree 100%. The handle feels terrific in hand, and the craftsmanship & attention to detail is outstanding! I love this knife.

Well, whatcha waitin' on? Go put some marks on that thing already!

Not beat to hell by any means but I have beat on them.

This is after a three day camping trip. During a desperate time dealing with some wet wood, I got the HDFK stuck in a log. I needed some kindling quick so the FK jumped in and saved the day. Both performed marvelously.

And my most used CPK:

I'm envious of your kitchen knife!

I own lots of knives. That one is my most used by far.

 

[91bravo]

I have one or two knives myself... but that's the one I'm envious of! I went to Blade hoping to pick one or two of these up. Jo said they sold out within a minute of opening the doors...

So at least it isn't just on the forum

I got one and loved it so much I bought my Mom one for her birthday. Back then, the Friday sales weren't too bad. You had at least a minute to post

What a nice gift for your mom! Yeah, the CPK team has really made a name for themselves!

And my most used CPK:

I'd move a mountain to have a potato knife. Even if that mountain was made out of cash.
