which knife do you... fondle?

Cannot put down my sage 3, evan when im not usin it im constantly playing with it. Its addicting.
 
I have a Schrade sterling silver pushbutton knife/nailfile I keep in an AG Russell leather slip case by my TV chair. Pat date Dec 21st 1909, and Sept 13 1910.
 
I fondle whatever knife I'm carrying on rotation . . . that being said, I always have my BRKT EPK and it's just so stinking small! I often find that I've mindlessly pulled it out and am playing with it. It's so small nobody seems to mind either!

One of these three. Case Damascus peanut, Sardinian resolza with horn handle, and GEC number 15 with ebony.
 
SOG Spec Elite, ZT 0200, Kershaw Ram, Kershaw Junkyard Dog composite. All so smooth.
 
My Spyderco paramilitary 2, stretch and endura 4, Becker bk16 and 15, Cold steel recon tanto.
These are always on my table and my day would not be complete without fondling any of these knives.
 
Hi all,

My friend Ken Hamilton recently made me a (historically correct) "Dutch Flamand" knife that looks very much like the one pictured here : http://contemporarymakers.blogspot.com/2009/10/dutch-flamand-knife-with-sheath-by-ken.html I keep this knife next to my Computer and handle it every day as it is simply a beautiful knife! Mine has "Boxwood" handles as opposed to Moose Antler handles. Example of these historical knives were found/used here in Maine (and up State NY) and were "trade knives" with certain Native Peoples (circa 1700's). The "Dutch Flamand" is one of my favorite knives in my humble collection. http://www.ken-hamilton.com/

I must be a bit of a perve since I tend to fondle all of em lol. But the newest one definitely gets the most attention. Currently it's this beautiful slab of INFI

Kershaw 1750 Lahar. I bought one from a BFCer and carried it at work yesterday for the first time. It spent more time out of my pocket than in it, even though I ended up not needing to cut anything all day.
 
Titanium integral framelock and bearings...makes very distinct sounds when it locks open and when the detent sets the blade closed, and just feels so good in the hand.

My 0560 flipper is like a finger workout :) I've grown to love it.
Aside from that, anything with a large SpydieHole and a smooth pivot.

I could thumb a SpydieHole all day :)
 
I put a coat of eezox on my new CF large Sebenza yesterday afternoon...should be nice and dry for a fondlin' haha. But really I can't wait to get home and play with it. Eezox is my ritual when I get a new blade so I can't play with it till a day later :D
 
Most often it's one of these two... A Case Peanut or TC Barlow, both have very smooth scales that are soothing to fondle watching TV, etc.

Mostly my Charlow lol
It's funny because I carry and use it most days and I can still sit on the couch and just play with it. Wish I could get one with a clip point but I can never get my hands on one. Rocking the spey for now...
 
At home in bed reading its daggers. My Peter Parkinson F/S pattern 1 or Cutlery Shoppe Mark 2 wasp get the most attention. They just feel right in my hand. At work its folders. The Benchmade AFCK sprint & the Spyderco Police 3 are tied for first.
 
Lately the Manix2 L/W is constantly in my hand.I've spent hours admiring the engineering and design of this knife.After deploying the blade well over a thousand times, the lock up is still rock solid with absolutely zero blade play.Really an amazing knife! :):thumbup:
