The Blade Forums Museum

[herisson]

I'm very happy to note that a countryman, knife maker from my old country made it to the first page of such prestigious thread.
Mr Manchev is a great knife maker as also many others in Bulgaria, I'm glad you like his work !

I actually have several others (OP asked to not double up....) from Galin Donchev, Giorgi Menchev and Jelio Tenev. All are unique and very precious to me. All from Bulgaria. Look them up, they are on Blade Forum's Knife Makers' Market.

This LionSteel TiDust would go in the technology section of the museum. The 3D printed Titanium handle has 4 layers, but it’s all 1 piece of metal.View attachment 1668781

Here's my entry...it's special to me because a lot of effort went into the modifications. I enjoyed doing it and love the finished product...

Can't have a "museum" without a knife from the godfather of the tactical folder Bob Terzuola. So my entry is a murdered out Eagle Rock model.

How about some Ivory for this virtual museum? GEC #85 Bullet End Jack in interior Elephant Ivory

... Blade Forums Museum....curator comes to you and says, "We are asking for your very best, absolute, drop dead, most prized, most spotlighted knife in your collection! ...only donate ONE knife...

for the infamous underdog that
dared us to dream ..

the classic cheapo survival knife because it best represents
a generation that couldn't possibly
afford a real jimmy lile rambo knife.
and yet despite the short comings
this el-cheapo, provided much cherished times and gave owners
highly important knife lessons
about what to avoid and look for in future buys....

My prized possession isn’t even close to being my most valuable knife. It’s hard to say, but this is my favorite blade that I own. It’s also my most carried edc knife. Bradford G3 Wharnie LE in V4E.

The "museum advantage" is that if one's prized knife ever gets lost or whatever, it will still be here to be seen and savored.

But not available for use. Just a cruel reminder of what was.

The William Henry B12 Spearpoint "Adventure" with frame and bolsters in hand-forged "T-Rex" Damascus by Delbert Ealy, inlaid with the ring cut of a 10,000-year-old fossilized Woolly Mammoth tusk. The blade is 'Intrepid' Damascus hand-forged by Chad Nichols.

Fantastic idea for a thread and some simply beautiful and amazing knives here. It may be old, but I'd love to see more! I'll have to think about what knife to submit myself.

That is a gorgeous Damascus pattern. And I can almost smell the Ren wax...

I have no knives of museum quality. But I would have to say my most cherished knife is this one. Given to my Late Mom in this box I made.

‘Museum quality’ is whatever you make it.

That’s some really nice work.

Thank you. I really enjoyed making that box for mom. Guess it was the last thing I ever made for her.

I started a thread on it with the rest of the story here. https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/my-late-mom’s-knife.1876514/

My favorite oldie is my Japanese WWII takeback that was gifted to me by a friend. My favorite big folder is my 111 Shiro.
