I had a couple. I gifted one that I made scales for to a friend of mine who is no longer with us. The other one, I para cord wrapped for my girlfriend. Both took a great edge. I think I purchased them from Mountain State Muzzleloading.

Old, worn, and rusty.....
Old - yes,
but not really worn, and no rust - 80+ years of stains, patina :^))

No knife defines who I am
Who I am is what designed this knife
10 of the finest souls to grace this forum got together to create this and gift it to me.
No other knife of mine embodies who I am and and how “the 10” perceive me
Many thanks to the gentlemen an lady who made it possible.

I think that's the whole idea. My thought was that family know I like knives and if I died, what knife would they choose to place in my casket or with my ashes? It would be their perception of me. But I also have my own perception of myself. A Kephart may in fact better relate to how I perceive myself versus the SAK I mentioned in my initial post. But Kephart style knives are a fairly new thing for me and subject to change where as the SAK Tinker is a baseline carry standard.No knife defines who I am
Who I am is designed this knife. <pic snip>

I love traditional knives, especially jack knives (two blade) of all sizes. And they relate to my historical use very well.

The word “Great“ does not do this group justice
The knife, absolutely treasured, their friendship, more so
I carry and use my knives.
The one I carry the most is my small inkosi.
I didn’t like this knife when I got it but it has grown on me so much that if I have to keep only one knife, it will be this one.
So I think that o feel like a connection with this blade.
It is simple, discret and efficient.
In some ways I think there are values that I like for myself: to keep things simple, to be humble and to overcome difficulties.

I would have to be an Alox SA. Reliable, not too fancy but uncomplicated, tough, but kind of hard headed. The awl, not used often but kind of pointless, much like my opinions!!! 
The blade, good steel but somewhat soft, like my middle.
Overall, good to have around in a tough situation.
