You're 99 years young, and had a great life, and your kids kids got kids, and you're happy as a clam. You've kept ONE knife for your century on this big blue ball, and it's ready to be handed down for posterity.

What knife is it?

I have an AWESOME collection, and I don't think I've yet to find the perfect hand-me-down blade(s). Small & classy? Large & brawny? Functional & utilitarian? Show/Shelf-Piece.

Ready.....GO!

TYVM!

SLD in CT
 
I like to think that I'll have a nice custom traditional by the time I'm due to visit Old Nick. Something classy, functional and elegant... maybe a Doc's pattern of some sort...
 
At that age, probably a traditional folder. I'll need a few more decades to figure out what.
 
My humble SAK Huntsman, which I have had since I was 12.

Also, my custom Nessmuk from SDS.

You're going to go to Santa when you pass on? To each their own...

I hope to pass on something custom, classic, and functional. Something like a carbon fiber folder with a classic satin blade (haven't found the right maker yet). Whatever I press on will have some use on it, because otherwise it's just a knife.
Common sense says I'll be passing on a small light saber though...

Well, I'm 25 and I imagine that the traditional blades of tomorrow will be the modern folders of today. With that in mind, I think I'd hand down a S90V Para. The young'uns probably wouldn't want to be caught dead with an ancient steel like that. As for a fixed blade it would be a Murray Carter neck knife. I think I have enough of those to last my lifetime. Interesting question, in any case.
 
Well, I figure if I'm 99, and I'm ready to take the final journey, (whether to St. Nick or elsewhere), and I've got kids with kids with kids, and I'm down to my final knife that's been with me for my entire life....it's going with me.

More than likely I've passed on the rest of my collection down to my kids with kids with kids so they've got enough.

Besides, who knows, I just may have to pry open those pearly gates to get in (at which point I just know this great mighty voice will boom down and call me an idiot for prying with a knife) :D
