What is everyone's top knife in their collection?

This is my most expensive and highest quality:

Chris Reeve Unique Night Sky Sebenza.



I end up putting this one in my pocket more than any other -- lightweight, cuts like a laser, is somewhat unique:

Spyderco Forum 2009 Native



This was my first knife. I actually got it at 12 years old, lost it at 13 and have had a few versions since:

Victorinox Spartan



Finally, this one was my first modern design/high quality knife:

Probably this Ken Steigerwalt auto dirk in fluted stainless, carved pearl and damascus.

Not sure I have a top knife. I have a couple of hand-made Damascus Bowie's I really like, but don't carry or use.

Of the fixed blades that I do carry, I like my Puma Bowie and Bear and Son 788 boot knife.

Of the folders I carry, I like my Gator II, Vapor II, Victorinox SwissChamp, and Arbalete G. David Laguiole.
 
Current favorites:
Folders: Kershaw Cyclone, and ZT 0200
Fixed: Ontario RTAK2 uncoated and Hisshou
 
My BM 940 is my most expensive followed by my bm 890 torrent. I actually use my CRKT drifter the most :rolleyes:
 
my 2 best are my Spyderco Gayle Bradley and my ZT 0300, so much so that i carry them both, zt in a sheath and the gb in pocket. there also my 2 most expensive. the GB is far and away a better edc folder on its own than the ZT, but the ZT is such a badass and i love to carry it in the sheath. for work i have a few i carry that are just that, good work edc knives. favorite is my endura and next to that is a zdp stretch. i think i like the endura better because of the ability to keep it razor sharp easier than zdp. my Sage 2 is my #2 most pricey but it cant replace the GB except on occasion. favorites come and go and come again. the endura is shure a winner in value as a good work knife.
 
LWhile it is nothing special in terms of being unique, my Sebenza 21 I got as an anniversary present.
 
My 3" XM-18 is my most expensive due to the secondary market prices:mad:
It is also my favorite folder, and is the one that gets 99% of my pocket time.

That would be my favorite too! Beautiful Steigerwalt Rick!
 
most expensive - CRK Umnumzaan
best feel - Surefire Delta ew-04
best looking - CRK Seb 21

one I'd carry everyday if it had a clip. 07 Inox VIC Soldier.
 
Either my Busse Zero Tolerance Satin Jack, or perhaps my Chris Reeve unique graphic [American flag] small Classic 2000
 
From purely a use perspective I'd have to go with the Aurora from BRKT. It's not the most expensive but it has seen the most work!
