Which 3 knives for the rest of your life ?

Spyderco Mule in S90V PE
Spyderco Military in S90V PE
Spyderco Cricket in VG-10 SE

Of course, I would not include a multi-tool, any chopping tools, any saw, or any kitchen tools. :)

**I reserve the right to alter or cancel this list in any way, shape or form at any point throughout the duration of the specified timeframe in this agreement.**
 
Three I would choose (mostly 'cause I have 'em):
1. BRKT Golok-remarkably versatile
2. Busse skinny ASH-1 w/ modded handle-my evolving "custom"
3. Benchmade 745 Mini-Dejavoo-slicer supreme
 
Two lists:

Assuming I can't have a multitool OUTSIDE of the list:

SAK Yeoman, 5.5 inch leuku pattern bushcrafter, 10-12 inch Rick Marchand bushbeater.

Assuming I can have a multitool that doesn't count

Leuku pattern bushcrafter, 5.5 inches.

Scandi necker with a 3 inch blade.

And that big bushbeater.
 
Currently Owned?
Benchmade 556
Bark River Canadian Camp in Antique Stag
Leatherman Wave

Fantasy-land?
Benchmade 940DM
Bark River Bravo-2 in Tan Burlap with black spacers
Wenger "Giant" Swiss Army Knife (ok, not really.)

It would be hard without a folder though..
 
First of all a sak Farmer, Then my K-bar kukri. Then this 6.3/4" fixed blade. These go with me any time I fish, hunt, bbq, and fight aliens. I may give up the sak for my case cv stockman:confused: Decisions.. decisions..

For my large knife it would be my Swamprat Chopweiler, although it's a close call with my Tracker......

My Mid knife would be either my JK Hiker or my Ratmandu.....

And my 3rd would be my Swiss Spirit.....

Hey pitdog,

I find it very interesting that you put the Tracker up there with your Chopweiler. A lot of people have badmouthed Trackers, but I reserved judgment. I got to handle 2 different Beck Trackers and I thought they had potential, but didn't have the opportunity to put them to work.

I know that it was reprofiled which increased it's efficiency

On a second note, I really like your Ratmandu and wished that they still made them and, of course, that I could afford it. :rolleyes: Maybe down the road.

And, of course, you know I absolutely agree with your choice of the Swiss Spirit. :thumbup:

Doc

And Big Mike, your custom Bowie is awesome!
 
Would we have to count kitchen knives too? Because if so that already takes up 2 slots for me. And if I have to be honest with myself about the knives that I need in my life and work vs. the knives that I like, then those two kitchen knives get more use from me than anything else I own. The third knife/tool I'd pick would probably be the Swiss Spirit Tool.

If kitchen knives don't count then I'd choose a machete (haven't selected a preference yet), the Swiss Spirit, and one of my many custom 3-1/2" - 4" drop points.
 
1. Multitool: Leatherman wave
2. EDC/tactical folder: Spyderco Tenacious or something along those lines perhaps better steel. But I love full flat grind, it almost works for me in wood craft as well as my mora 2000 but I can't carry the mora everywhere. Woodcraft, gutting deer and small game- no problem.
3. Big knife: maybe my Kabar heavy bowie or my in the mail coming soon cold steel ghurka kukri.

All blades I own. Nothing fancy, but they have been tested by me and I know they work for me.
 
Current:

1) Kershaw Outcast (modified)
2) BM Fixed Grip (modified)
3) LM Skeletool

Grail:

1) Busse Mistress
2) Dozier Pro Guide
3) LM Wave (old style)
 
I'll play....

Big chopper - CS Laredo Bowie
Medium - BRKT Aurora (maybe the RC5 instead)
Little bugger - RAT Izula (maybe move the Aurora down here) A big knife can always do the work of a little knife, but never vice versa...


If we're talking sharp thing that aren't knives, then my Gransfors Bruks Wildlife Hatchet would also be in that kit, a RAT firekit...:rolleyes: great now ya got me started. I don't wanna play anymore:grumpy:;):D


Great thread by the way:thumbup:
 
I could be set for the rest of my life with my Dozier PGK, my Dozier Straight Personal, and my BM 910HS.
