The 20 Best Knives Ever Made

I disagree with pretty much the whole list besides the kabar which deserves to be on any best of list

He got the history of the Ka-bar wrong though.

Camillus got the first run of them done, but Union, Robeson and PAL also made them. It was the Union's that carried the KABAR stamp, not the Camilluses (camilli?)
 
Homo habilis chipped flint hand axe, ancient chipped obsidian knives, bronze knives (including friction folders), middle ages daggers and butchers', Chinese and Japanese Tamahagane, Wootz steel knives, Sheffield knives, frontier rasp&file blacksmith creations, the Black/Bowie knife, Wm. Scagel, Bill Moran, The list of 'all time' or 'ever made' would be awfully tough for even a panel of cutlery experts, historians, sportsmen, chefs, and utility users, much less a magazine writer.
 
Seems like the list goes from specific models (Ie, Busse BM.) to general design (Ie, Leuku.)?
 
Spyderco military,sebenza should be in there ;carbon v trailmaster,benchmade 710 ?
