Your favorite Slipjoint

[Larrin]

My favorite slip joints: the one made for me by Devin Thomas, and Bill Ruple also makes a mean slip joint.

Victorinox Climber which recently replaced a Tinker. I still haven't used the all mysterious "all purpose hook" on my Climber though.

I favor my Vic Climber (nylon handle), my Camillus official Boy Scout four-blade camper (BSA008--chestnut delrin handle), and a beautiful Turkish clip blade custom with blonde bone scales by Gary Crowder that I bought at the NYCCCKS last November. I especially like the Camillus because it is so functional and it is such a piece of Americana. I like to think about the thousands upon thousands who have carried this model and I feel a connection to them. Plus, I used to live next door to Camillus in Syracuse.

I just got involved with slip joint knives. Several years ago my wife bought me a Parker Edwards two blade damascus trapper. I kept it sharp but never really carried it or used it for anything. My interests went towards more tactical knives. However, lately I have been getting more interested in the folders that started me on this road.

I now have a small stag Case Trapper, a stag Queen Trapper, a Schatt & Morgan Candy Stripe Trapper and a Queen stag Copperhead.

One great thing about slip joints is that even if somewhat large they are very Sheeple friendly knives. I took the Queen Trapper on a camping trip and really liked the way it performed. Used it to clean the bark off of a waking stick.

I may have to break down and get a custom.

I really like slip-joints. I have several OLD TIMERS....not sure which is my favorite. Either the 8OT or the 94OT. I also really like my Vic. Tinker. I have my eye on several more.

My favorite slip-joint is the Victorinox Soldier...err....Electrician....err...Explorer, I mean Champ, or maybe the Rancher, or Climber, or Tinker even....oh I dont know, but its a Victorinox of some sort.

The Victorinox Soldier is one of my favorite slip-joints too. Great knife.

I have really enjoyed this Toothpick from Bill Ruple:

I usually have a slip joint in my pocket. My favorite is probably the Puma Prospector (see a picture at pumaonly.com)

I EDC a Victorinox huntsman and a Schrade 897UH stockman, they are my favorite slipjoints for carry, they satisfy my everyday needs and I like them.

Now, here´s one that I recently got from a fine gentleman over at the Schrade forums, I consider it too pretty to carry, but it is a favorite. A Stag handled Schrade stockman in the same pattern as my EDC.

I have one of those Schrade Uncle Henrys - it's a similar Stockman pattern to the Case 6318 -

How about these -

Vincent, you have some really cool knives, by the way, I´ve posted a picture in your Customized SAKs thread.

 

[fasteddie]

I picked this up at Blade. Might be too fancy for an EDC, though.

 

[cockroachfarm]

Buzzbait, how are those carbon-fiber handled SAK's coming along? Should I start making out the check?

My favorite would be a Bradshaw Laredo whittler.

And I've got a single blade Laredo like this one on the way from Bailey

Thats my favorite too. I have two of them. One from the early 80ties and a final edition from the late 90ties. The old one is a piece af art as it comes to workmanship and the newer one is better than average for a slipjoint. I like that its simple and basic still beautiful.

Today, like most days I am carrying my Ray Cover - left front pocket. It's a big slippie at just barely over 4" closed but I really don't notice it since it is very well designed. I have other knives the same size (or a little smaller) that I just can't carry comfortably in my pocket so it really amazes me.

This particular one is ATS-34 with Bos HT, the two blade styles are IMO the most functional for EDC type tasks.

I put a razor edge on it with my EdgePro when I got it and have not touched the edge since, stays sharp a good long time...

Sorry for the crappy pic (and all of the lint), I'm at work and just used the company Mavica

Old Timer Trapper (small). It's just the right size.
