Swiss knife best knife [QUOTE][IMG]http://www.looksfeelsworks.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Swiss_army_knife_closed_20050612.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE] Also, opinel up in dis bitch [QUOTE][IMG]http://www.devoir-de-philosophie.com/images_dissertations/27368.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]

I find that gun shows are a good place to pick up unique/interesting/illegal knives. Gravity knives are illegal around here yet I've found dozens being sold at a gun show :v:

Gerber Suspension. Fuck yeah. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Xo1zc.jpg[/IMG] Probably the most useful non-electronic thing I own.

lol, butterfly knives are so badass. unfortunately theyre illegal to buy in the uk, but theyre NOT illegal to own. solution, make one :P (although as i later found out, making them is also pretty illegal) [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/oLvZP.jpg?1[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/NWzMp.jpg?1[/IMG] As it turns out theyre insanely hard to make, so thats as far as i got before i got bored/messed up too much. I made a wooden prototype, but working in metal takes, like, 5 times as long. would still like a proper one to practice being spy. might have another browse around the web to see if getting one would be feasible... Also, "thats not a knife, [i]this[/i] is a knife." modeled by my brother. an SOG machete in a camping shop in santa barbara, seemed pretty nice. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/2bajx.jpg?1[/IMG]

I really enjoy blades that are half-serrated on a spring assist folding system.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/2bajx.jpg?1[/IMG][/QUOTE]SOG machetes are generally bad quality, they use cheap china-shit steel and the blade is too thin for heavy work

Got a few throwing knives made by SOG and they are really unbalanced and dont throw well at all, so I agree with Glitch

Been trying to get one of this lately. Its a local machete and knife. And it has a really awesome name.

What's the price on the wooden rambos?

Guys who would like to make knives but don't have the tools to metal work should look here: [url]http://www.knifekits.com/vcom/index.php[/url]

Add this to the OP: [url]http://www.randallknives.com/[/url] Basically the Rolls-Royces of knives

[QUOTE=myng;35997497]What's the price on the wooden rambos?[/QUOTE] I've seen some for about $70 online.

Is a Ka-Bar U.S.M.C. Next Generation KA-1224 worth 99 euros

That may be just a little bit too much. I got my black USMC for about $80

I really love my Italian stiletto. It's 9" I think, haven't really measured it. [t]http://cdn.armslist.com/images/posts/634109794559814932fieom15l.jpg[/t] It's almost identical to this one with flat blade, wooden handles and brass frame. I got it from my friend who's a hunter and it's a bit worn but works 90% of the time as it should. It's also my knife of choice for [B]five finger fillet[/B]. Anybody else play that ocasionally? My speed record is 3 rounds in 10 seconds (Red Dead Redemption style - hit behind thumb after every hit forward). [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmN8V3_KSmc[/media] Related.

I'd probably lose my fingers pretty quickly, I suck at that game :v:

[QUOTE=Glitch360;36007491]I'd probably lose my fingers pretty quickly, I suck at that game :v:[/QUOTE] It's fun even with a pen or similar instrument :v: I personally pull best results when I concentrate and go trough a whole bunch training rounds with a pen. After some point your brain forgets that you still have feeling on your fingers - then you pull out some nifty results. At least for me it works.

That's pretty sweet.

Looks like one of the Orc swords from LOTR

[url]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003788U9U/[/url] I'm gonna get this and put it on my keychain, fuck yeah miniature knives

[url]http://www.bladeplay.com/item--35-Mini-Butterfly-Knife--7354[/url] hnnnnng, mini balisong. Crappy quality, but cool anyway.

Never buy a crappy balisong. They can and will break, and when they do, the knife will fly into your face.

I want to buy a balisong badly, what's a nice site to buy them at in the US?

[QUOTE=l l;36010662]I want to buy a balisong badly, what's a nice site to buy them at in the US?[/QUOTE] Never ordered from them, but [url]http://www.bladehq.com/[/url] seems decent. If you wanna get a nice mid-range balisong go for a Bradley Kimura, best for the price.

I own: A Boker bowie, Ontario Marine Combat knife, Buck 110, Buck Parallex, a big butcher knife I found in a bush, a bunch of knives from local malls/secondhand stores and about 4 that I made from scrap steel.

I've one of these: [IMG]http://www.vicfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/victorinox-handyman-red-04.jpg[/IMG] A Victorinox Handyman, barely use it but it's pretty handy to have.
