Show us your pocketknives!!!!
« on: January 23, 2007, 10:12:00 PM »
Well we've seen some pretty awesome hunting knives recently on the other thread .  I thought it might be interesting to see the pocketknives we all carry/collect.

 

Most of these are Case XX's, made sometime in between 1940/45 through 1964.  A couple of Bucks in there and 3 newer Case's.

My EDC is the single blade trapper on the bottom, a custom knife made by a fellow named Don Morrow in Texas.

Let's see em folks!!!!

black lipped pearl handle, special nickel damascus blade and bolster, titanium innards, quite a knife.

I am still carrying the Remington R-2 I bought 20 years ago. It's kinda worn, but is a very good knife. Frank

Ray Hammond

Is that a Jerry Corbit?

He makes some very cool folders.  I'm into more of the old time patterns but a beautiful knife is still just that, regardless of the style.

Here is a folder I got from master knifemaker Dave Ricke. It has a spalted maple handle, carbon steel blade with titanium inards. My crummy pics dont do it justice.

I took some pictures today.  I hope I can make this work.

 

This pic has a trapper that is a LLBean limited addition, it also has an old Gerber skinner.  I haven't seen another of these.  I got it in the mid 70's.  The Green one is a German army folder that I always carry while hunting. The big one I got when I about ten y/o.  It is huge.
 

These are just an assortment of small folders.  There are two butterfly knives. The small one was a gift from some karate students almost 20 yrs ago.
 

This group are my Limited edition Schrade scrimshaws with beaded sheaths.
 

This last group I guess I would call my "tactical" group.  The most versatile designed knife I ever carried/owned is the Benchmade AFCK (I got 2)
 

Enjoy,

Carl
