Your most unusual blades

[Workingsloth777]

Hi everyone! I just thought it would be fun/interesting to start a thread dedicated to the most unusual knives in your collection.
So to start the ball rolling..... this is my Spyderco “chubby”. For such a thick “chubby” little knife it is incredibly thin behind the edge which I love. (Also it has a Sebenza like smooth action and is very ergonomic in my medium sized hands).
My goal here is to possibly unearth some Gems that myself or others are unaware of.

Thx,
Workingsloth

This is one of my most "unusual" knives. It's an Italian AGA Campolin "Hunter" switchblade. The blade is 5" long, total open length is 11". It's basically a switchblade bowie knife.

I was going to say this one, which is also an oversized, auto bowie:

The most "unusual" (and, to me, the most interesting) knives of mine would include:

A Bastinelli Kalinou

The Warren Thomas - Nine Line - Sinraptor w/its laminated G10/CPM 154 chisel ground blade & Ti frame:

An Extrema Ratio BF2 R CD friction folder:

A MicroTech Halo V:

And a Spyderco Jani-song:

There are others I could list but this is a pretty good cross-section (based on type) of the "most unusual" knives that are in my collection.

This Subcompact DOA from Bladetricks is pretty different:

Really though, it's gotta be my Turbine Blade...forged out of a (Titanium) first stage fan blade from a C-5 Galaxy by our very own @Mecha

Mine would probably be the CS Desperado, and S&W Swing Blade (not my pics):

I'd love one of those S&Ws if you ever come across another, the A.G. Russell funny folder I have is a favorite mechanism.

My Red Blade Pig is pretty unusual with its .25 thick blade.

Heck, everyone should have at least one folding bowie. Or two, or three...

My brother works for a Spyderco dealer and has (annoyingly)nicknamed this knife the dill pickle

Love this knife! Also I’m digging the oversized folding Bowie theme going on

Unique detent mechanism and a really attractive knife.

These are the most unconventional in my collection. Artisan Cutlery, Proponent (lg).
CRKT Nirk Tighe (lg)

I really like that. Is the Hunter discontinued?

This one's a bit weird. Coconut chopper? Who knows. Thick blade. Cost me a couple - three dollars.

One of my more unusual blades is this match striker on a Tighe Rod by Brian Tighe. 91mm SAK for size reference.View attachment 1497816
