It's a Farmer. The Spyderco Sharpmaker is the best sharpening tool I have ever owned. The folder is a Normark Super Swede which I've had for about thirty five years, it's tough as old boots  :)

Nice collection :)
Are sure it's complete though, don't you need just one more tool? Or two, or three, or....  ;)

I have others, but these represent what I have decided suits me. Since joining this forum I have to admit to embarking on a bit of a spending spree which has allowed me to sample quite a few others at first hand. I'm not much of a collector, more a user  >:D Oh the shame of it  :D

I agree with Bob - that's a really well rounded selection of tools that.

Covers most things I would think.
I used to come here a lot.

I don't know to be honest. When I bought it all those years ago there was little talk of knife steel types. It's certainly hard as takes a while to sharpen. It looks closely related to the knives in your pics and is made by Eka of Sweden. It's probably a forerunner of those.

That is a nice collection of classic tools that should stand you in good stead for a long time.  :cheers:

A fairly cheap thing you might consider adding to the mix is a small adjustable wrench or some vise-grips. Or if you want to spend more, perhaps a Crunch?  >:D :D
