Day 10: Another not very often (never?) seen around MTo. True Utility SmartKnife. The screw driver tip is not very user friendly, but it can be used to help open the blade, like a flipper. Frame lock, no blade play. Never really used it (what a surprise!), but I think the bottle opener and carabiner would be the most used tools.

Notice how everything is labelled, to let everyone know what tool does what...


Not my style but  :like: nevertheless

Day 10
Inspired by comis’ WE, I thought I’d post my two knives that were produced by WE - Ferrum Forge Crux and Gent.  I especially like the wood scale Gent which is a great knife in a nice small sleek package.

Cool!  I gonna get mine out and post on day 11!  :tu:

That's actually looks alright coming from True Utility, I always think their tools are slightly gimmicky but this one does look funcitonal.  :like:

Day 10

Moki Blakiston´s Fish Owl LE

The standard version of this knife has plain black micarta handles. This LE (200 pieces) adds abalone inlays. It was Moki´s knife of the year 2007. As always with Moki, fit and finish are as perfect as can be. Lightweight (44g) and only slightly larger than a SAK alox Soldier, it is an excellent knife for my Sunday carry.

I´ll have more high end Japanese folders in this challenge, all made in Seki city (like many Spyderco knives).

Day 10: My little collection of Bassett Trim-Trio tools.These were popular on the 60's and 70's, and many of them were advertising knives.  Two of these are just that, the third silver one is branded Trim-Trio and the gold colored one looks to be commemorative/presentation and came with a leather slip case.

Fuzzbucket Day 10

Found an old Maxpedition (America smurf Yeah!) molle belt clip this morning and fitted it to my Hazard 4 pouch - it's brilliant clip on, clip off... I didn't rate at all years ago when fitted to its original holster, I just found it bulky, clumsy and generally just a pain in the arse to use, but on this pouch it's superb. Even with the Surge I hardly notice it.  :2tu:





...clip on, clip off, clip on clip off, clip on, clip off, clip on clip off, clip on, clip off, clip on clip off, clip on, clip off, clip on clip off, clip on, clip off, clip on clip off, clip on, clip off, clip on clip off,  clip on, clip off, clip on clip off, clip on, clip off, clip on clip off...

Belated Happy Birthday Steve! More great knives and photos everyone!

Day 9

This one is my only fixed “knife” as such, it’s a Georgian (that’s the country not the state!  :rofl:) dagger/short sword I was presented in the mid 1990s by the then president, Edouard Shevardnadze. A staggering amount of work goes into the scabbard, and the blade definitely holds an edge, but a little impractical as a modern day edc even if it was one back in the day in the trans Caucusus!

What an amazing piece! :o :like:

Day 10:


Here is one of my oldest and most carried knives:




It might just be one of my most used knives, too. This Vic Classic is over 30 years old and has been around the world. The Classic is one of those knives everyone should have with them at awl times.

In the photo above, the oft carried Classic is resting on one of my least used knives, a Siegle Chopper:




Bill makes a rugged and simple knife, but one that is executed really well. This beast is a bit heavy for practical carry, but make a fine car-camping knife to use in managing big camp-tasks. It could also be pressed into to service as a wrecking bar or to 'field dress a Buick' as the saying goes. I'd get rid of it....but it's too much fun to let go and you never know when you might need to cut your way out of a burning building.....
