Howdy folks. It seems like I'm always looking at pictures of brand new knives here on the forum.
So I thought that I'd start a thread for people who keep their knives long enough to actually get some use out of them!

Here's a picture of my current EDC

I'll get some more pictures of some of my more well used knives this weekend.

This is my most used knife, my grandfather gave it to me more than 20 years ago. You can see how he used a small wheeled electric sharpener on it. Its how he used to go through knives.

A little comparison shot of my 1974 EDC and its newer ~2006 companion. I still carry the older one even if there is side to side bladeplay and it's snap is really weak. I'll be doing so until July 2015 (40 years and it will have earned its retirement.
 
I definitely carried this one for more than 15 years. This was also before I knew how to properly sharpen a knife, and used a grinding wheel.

I've been meaning to ask you. What is this knife? I can't seem to find a 309 with the same blade shape.
 
My 0200 has some love marks (current EDC)... DLC is one tough bitch though:D

My Delica 4's been touched up and dinged up so much I just re-ground it to a thinner convex with secondary (was saber)... I've used this knife to cut things you shouldn't cut on surfaces you shouldn't be cutting on I don't know how many times.

Not my most carried in general, but definitely the one that has seen the most rough use.
 
cold steel el hombre made in Japan......never failed........and another one Spyderco moran clip point but fully convexed, excellent knife, strong enough for my needs..........I have couple bark river knives that are just superb............but are fixed blades that I dont use so often.................all cut like crazy................will sell all my knives to buy couple customs!!!!scagel style..........tactical knives are big time bs........;)
 
Here is my most used and carried. It is a Victorinox Waiter model, and I have sharpened it on diamond stones so much that it now looks like a wharncliffe.
