Whats your dream knife?

First Post Here:

Personally, of all the knives I own, the ZT-301 which is in my pocket now is near perfect. I would like it offered in smooth carbon fiber scales and smooth titanium for an easier pocket carry. I'd like it to have a lower pocket carry clip like the SOG trident. And it would be nice if there was a bit more clearance so the thumbstuds could be used but still function as blade stops.

I will be buying a Terzuola ACTF which might surpass the ZT because the Fit and finish on that knife are perfect.

That's darn near perfection. Are you having it made or is it just a thought? I'd love to see the finished product.

I know. I've been mulling and drooling over it for six months now. I finally had enough money to have it made about a month ago, but Christof was in the middle of his big move... I asked him for a quote, it's been a good four weeks now and haven't got a response. I spent all the money on HI and Bruce Culbertson instead... had my dream Hudson Bay Co. Camp Knife built by a genuine canadian maker :) It's in the process. Trying to work the Point Blanket colors into the sheath somewhere.

I picked up a 1095 R Murphy Canadian Belt Knife a few weeks ago, it'll be this one's smaller companion. I may try to patina a maple leaf into the blade... or maybe use gun brown. We'll see. Maybe that's taking things too far...

One along the lines of the original manix with a tri-ad lock and CTS-XHP blade steel. Heh!

All I can do is:

Tri-Ad lock 10.5 inch folder [6" handle] with ribbed paper micarta slabs on Ti front/rear guard type handle, .200" thick 5160 blade, drop point. Weight in the 10 oz. range, steel spacer for strength and heft, .275" bushed pivot, thumb plate / wave opening with grade 6 plated allen head cap screws all around. :cool:

It's possible I would allow Andrew Demko to build it... :D

I will be receiving something similar tomorrow (cept mine isn't Damascus or flamed handles)
 
Anything made by Bob Loveless.

If forced to pick, I guess a "standard" drop point hunter in stag.

My dream knife exist already. One of a kind Ikoma GA II, problem is, I have no clue who owns it at the moment and it would be several thousand dollars out of my price range anyway.

I thought there was a short run of 10 or 20 of those that sold out quick, but I could be wrong.
 
Oh, also I can not die before I own this knife as well.







Maker is GT Cecchini (GTC)
 
I think the RAT-7 is as good a design as you'll find. I'd like to see it used as a "mule team" knife available in Infi, CPM-3V, CPM-M4, etc.
 
Hmmm, I would have to say my dream knife would be a convexed, satin finished, Swamp Rat Ratmandu in INFI steel.
 
Chris Reeve Umnumzaan with the "Stars & Stripes" graphics. That would be the ultimate patriotic knife for me
 
ti frame lock
~3 in blade
textured micarta scale with ti liner on non lock side
opening hole
pivot bushing
some very nice steel like zdp, m4, maybe one of cts's offerings

I want a microtech halo v. Have always wanted one since I learned of them when I began collecting. I dont need any $1000 knives (although it would be nice!). Production striders and microtechs are about as high as I intend on going.

I second that I'm good with some striders and microtechs. I would love to have a spetsnaz ballistic knife more then any other but considering how illegal they are that will probably never happen.
 
It would have a leaf shaped, full-flat ground blade (a la Kershaw Cyclone or Spyderco Manix), with sharpening choil, Titanium framelock, preferably a thin lignum vitae handle scale on the non-lock side, a lanyard hole, not made in a sweatshop, and easy to find a replacement.

Actually, A Sebenza w/ lignum vitae inlays would be pretty much the closest thing I can think of...
 
Well, as long as it's a dream knife, might as well dream big. How about Loveless New Orleans Boot knife with amber stag.

Bob Loveless Big Bear Junior. MSRP 25,000. :eek::eek::eek:. Way out of my price range and out of reach. And that nude girl:p on the blade's spine - out of the world. Nobody does it this way. He stopped making knives a long time ago. Greatest knife maker to my list. I drool every time I look at that picture:p:).
