Favourite Knife(ves)

**OZZ** · Posted On: 7/17/2010 11:14am

I have a pretty decent little collection of knives. I finally got a good-sized stilletto a year or two ago...(they are illegal here) and I like the action on it.
For practical,quick action purposes I always carried my punch knife on my hip.
But I am past that stage now and live in a city where it is really not neccesary to carry one unless you run in certain circles, which I do not anymore.

**** you, you *are* criticizing, and trying to bait an argument, so don't pretend that you aren't.

You're right, my comment on the Emerson knives was bullshit. I was trying to be humorous (something I definitely failed at), and in retrospect it was a pretty fucking stupid thing that I can see offending someone. I offer my apologies if I offended anyone in the thread, it really was not my intention. A failure on my part to properly alliterate my point does not constitute a failure on anyone else to understand me. I'll endeavor to think a lot harder about my posts before I start typing in the future. Sorry again.

Strider tanto style...or an Emerson utility. Not really picky...as a $10.00 chinese spyderco ripoff would do the job, if worse came to absolute worst. :eusa_doh:

Stick to the Emerson. If the Strider is the one I think it is, keep it for show off purposes only.

I show it off...and I use it. It's pretty much good for everything I want it to be good for. =)

Well I guess if you've got the money to put down on one, go for it... Dude... 500 dollar EDC blade? You friggin' showoff...

In australia, thankfully, the law comes down hard on anyone carrying knives. But for use at home I have a marttiini that i'm fond of.

zaohu,

**** man, you should have seen what I carried in Iraq. The $400 Strider folder in my pocket was the least of it. :)

So, erm... Ahem... You do know Striders are total crap, right? You should send it to me to dispose of properly for you... Please...?

As a carrying around knife, a Winchester multi-tool.

I love my khukuri, but carrying around a 15" part-knife, part-hatchet on my belt would garner funny looks in a best case scenario.
