Whip out your favorites, and show us YOUR COLLECTION

Actually, I believe that is a Taylor/Seto. (Trying to remember. It's at home, I'm not. It's definitely a Taylor, though.) That knife is at least 20 years old, that's when I bought it new down in Texas.
Very cool. Thanks. The blade shape and handle profile look just like the Bark River models.

Here it is, check my sig. Nobody seems to have had a problem with it, though. :thumbup:

I know I'd pick the Thumb Dimple fighter as a favorite. That's a really classy piece.
Thinking about it more, I'm going to have to agree. I think the fact that it is getting a $435 handmade wood display case should tell the tale.

The Warenski is pretty nice though. :)

Believe it or not, but my favorite knife out of all of my knives, is the Kabar Precision Hunter. Most comfortable, durable knife I've ever held in my hand.

Was the modification on purpose, or the result of breaking the tip off?

-Bob

both. I lent the knife to a coworker and they broke the tip off (dumb). at the same time I was looking at the Graham Razels and it occoured to me how incredably useful it would be to have a flat ground edge perpindicular to the main edge. so busted edge+grinder=mod. the knife is now twice as handy as it was before.
