Show off! :)
 
This is mine lately: Boker Arctos 42. Just has a feel to it that is so satisfying. German made, so very high quality.

Carried this for 6 years everyday, needs a good sharpening, but it is still a tank. This started the folder sickness for me and is still my favorite knife out of my collection.
 
Getting close to 10 years with my large double lug regular. Not an everyday, but a most days EDC. Still haven't found anything my soul likes better...

It's always the one in my pocket until something else gets my attention.

I seem to have a new 'soul blade' every couple of months.
I hope that's normal?!

The longest any one knife has lasted in my pocket was an SMF, and that was an earth shattering 6 months.

I guess I just wasn't meant to find my 'soul blade'
 
You know what I mean if you have one - that knife that you hold in your hand and think: "Yeah. That one."
What are yours?

I've had a couple that I think "Yeah. That one." but I don't know of any that I would consider my soul blade.
There some I really like/love and some I swore I'd never part with, but I don't think I've found the one that I am that connected to.
 
Excuse my bad photography, but when I first held this, it really felt different.



And only this folder I feel a connection with, can't explain with words.

Now, if we are talking about a knife with a Soul, then this one has one! Wow!!!! B. E. A. Utiful! If I could, I think I'd ask that knife to marry me!

My soul-mate knife is still out there somewhere... I keep on looking, and have been for more than 20 years. Probably my nearest presently-owned knife would be the Bose/Case Lanny's Clip in chestnut bone, or an A. G. Russell folding Gent's knife with Burl and Titanium handles.
