What kinfe (knives) do you have that NOBODY else has? Not just some one off custom...

[fracmeister]

INteresting to see...

I own the entire #1 in the series collection of Bladeforums SIFU knives (4 folders and one small fixed blade) all #1 of 50/25 or 75

I also own each and every tkcl folder, fixed blade and pen from the series that was generated in about the year 2000 as well as multiple "non-tkcl" knives. The tkcl series included Bailey Bradshaw, Larry Chew, Johnny Stout, Dale Reif and several more.... I think Don Cowles did one after I fell off the planet.

Other than that I think I have one of the largest collections of Ralph Turnbull but assuredly NOT the largest.

And of course about a zillion custom knives, but who counts their knives?

I bet you have something no one else has

Here's a cheap tin shell glazer's knife, I've seen 2 in my time,I own them both.

I know there are some out there but this is the only one, an Imperial small jack knife with an uncut key blank for 50s-70s GM ignitions.

 

[Lost Cosmonaut]

The middle one, an ESEE-3 Folder prototype by LionSteel.

 

[HwangJino]

People own these, but have not seen any here.

For The Win!

I have the only Al Mar Payara I've seen or heard of on the boards. This is absolutely not as interesting as a folding ESEE 3 prototype.

 

[Zuchus]

One of my favorites. As far as I know, this is the only Dress Manx that Jeff Hall has ever made with spalted maple scales:

 

[Sonnydaze]

Okay, the esse 3 prototype takes the cake....at least IMO.
I have some nice folders, but no one-offs. I do have an exceptional folder in CPM154 coming from Joe Hoover. Generally, I'm pretty happy with Spyderco mid-techs...along with my Zaan.

First is a SOG Teamleader. I know there are others out there.


Second, a D'Holder I have not seen another like it. Top left knife.


Not sure if there are others of this. I know I have not seen one like it. Benchmade.

That is sweet, I have a production Boye Prophet with 440C steel, don't see a lot of those around either but I like yours better.

 

[SENGVIN]

Some prototypes

Rambo 101 /100 Damascus( This one is the only one with famous Delbert Ealy Damascus )

It seems I have a hundred production knives that no one ever discusses here. But one of a kind? And not counting customs? That's a tall order.

Here is a knife with a blade etch Compliments of Schrade Cutlery.

Although the Compliments knives are scarce, they can be found, and are certainly not one-of-a-kind. This one, however, has something extra 'special' on the backside:

This may be a unique knife-related item. The tobacco tins are common. Some even have the original wrappers. This one has the original tobacco and was part of the collection hanging on the wall at the Schrade factory.

 

[dcmartin]

People own these, but have not seen any here.

Damn! Those are quite nice!

 

[Icky Thump]

JParanee...wow.

Unsharpened BM 800HS

 

[GooberBoober]

I have this one:

It looks like the reasonably well known Czech fish-knife, but it isn't that one. My dad got me this as my second knife (after wrecking my first one (different knife) when discovering batoning..) when I was 8, over 30 years ago.

I've always thought it was a newly bought cheap gas-station keychain knife until fairly recently, after doing a little research last year it turned out to be something rarer and older. I still don't know for sure where it came from though, but I have only seen one other one just like it on the entire interwebz & that was sold as an antique so it must be pretty rare. Would love to know more about it if anyone happens to have more info. The only mark on the blade is that of what appears to be a little rose.

 

[NetshadeX]

Not my pic, but I have this blade in ser. No 3838/5000

It's the 2012 Vic Swiss Soldiers knife in walnut with a damast blade.

 

[T. Erdelyi]

Awful lot of custom type knives and one offs being shown, how about rare production stuff? Here's a rare one, I've only seen this one.

A little Camillus Funny Folder Salesman Premium/gift.

It says "CAMILLUS HAS THE EDGE"
