Your Favorite Pattern?

Ok Barlow..

50s strawberry Robeson, just everything.

 

Medium Jack Knives with a Clip/Pen combo are my favorites.
In this case, it's a GEC #76 Gunstock Jack that I had recovered in Ebony.

 

That’s just my Barlow pref.

Stockman, all’a Cuban #53

 

Ratcliffe.

 

A Double End Jack has been my favorite pocket knife pattern for the last few years. Some call it a pen knife but I like my edc to be a bit larger than a typical pen knife. Levine calls those a Double End Jack. Prior to Double Enders becoming my favorite pattern a standard Jack with clip and pen or clip and sheepfoot was my favorite pattern from my youth.
I like the width of two spring knives and I found when the blades are on opposite ends of the knife it is more comfortable in my hand then same end Jacks. Also I have never needed more than two blades in any given day.
I have several wonderful Double End Jacks but the 2018 BF Buck 301 comes the closest to being the best edc for me. The length, width, blade styles, steel selection and elk covers seem as if it was custom made for me.

That is not hard on the senses, red !!
A Beaut!

 

I like single blade knives. Simple jacks as it were. Not as versatile as a multi-blade, but I can't remember a single time in my life that I needed a second blade. A sharp knife? Sure. Another blade? Never.

This knife is my favorite.

 

Thanks Gus, both the Robeson Barlow and the Yellow Cuban you posted are as attractive as they come! Enjoy, -James

 

Cheers James

 

Can't really say, yet. In all my years of buying knives, amassing them, collecting , hoping to be a connoisseur using them, I haven't yet hit on a favourite.

I've only come to understand the patterns I don't like

Scant but valuable progress ....

 

My favorite would be that stag covered Ohta of yours in a single clip. Such a beauty.

 

I really like a large Trapper pattern. Camillus made a handsome model, even with locking blades and a lanyard hole. DM

 

My favorite pattern is the Trapper Pattern . Not the Case Trapper or the GEC 48 Trapper but the GEC 72 ,73 , 74 , 43 , 83 , or 23 Trapper .

Buck 301 Forum knife is also my favorite

Harry, fantastic stag
