Anyone here into knives?
For years my collection has varied between several Benchmades, Spyderco's, Kershaws, Camillus etc. I've had Sebenza's, Striders, Fallkniven, Ontario, and a few customs as well. Anyone here have any favorites they've owned or currently own? Right now mine is a Scott Cook Lochsa, and a Spyderco Delica with foliage green G-10 handles.

I really like looking at knives, but the only one I own is a Spyderco Cara Cara.
There are some beautiful knives out there. |

That's actually a great knife at the price point, I have one myself with a satin finish blade. I take it camping and do yard work with it and it handles all chores with ease.

I like it a lot. My only gripe is that the finish is wearing off of the handle.
I make pick up another Byrd knife in stainless soon.

I mainly collect XX Case knives. I do have some old favorites: a old Cold Steel tanto, a few Tony Bose, a simple Mike England.

I used to collect. I've got Ka-Bar, Victorinox, CRKT, Spyderco, Cold Steel, and others.
BTW, I'm interested in the new Natural series from CRKT:
The Natural
I may want to purchase the 7085. It's not a user, like an Endura, but it looks like quite a nice collector's piece. |

I have a friend that makes custom folders and I also had a 1st cousin that made custom knives. I used to collect old Case XX knives but I sold my collection years ago. The only knives I have now are for deer hunting with the exception of Dad's old John Primble.
