Spyderco Tenacious is my latest EDC. I must confess that it is one of my better EDC knives. I had always assumed that it will be a tad bigger than needed. Very economical and high value blade. This one has been used...by the previous owner and I :)

The American Eagle Khukuri from Khuhuri House. This is one of the best Khuks that I have had the pleasure of using. Love the lines and the beautiful voluptuous curves.

Yup, i was referring to the full sized Kabar with the stacked leather handles :) :) Try your hand at modding blades, once bitten there's no turning back. The Becker BK2's begging you to be stripped :mrgreen:

The Buck 119 Special. This is one of the most elegant hunting knives. Still in production. If you get one of these, it is a keeper :)

Moin, I envy your enthusiasm :). Maybe I shall start modding someday. But for now, these beautiful blades stay as is :)

The ESEE 5. Even though I had read a lot about this blade, nothing prepared me for the sheer heft of this beast or its surgical refinement. This is big honky knife. And if it goes camping with me, it stays in the Scorpio. This is the indestructible blade :)

The Zero Tolerance 550 designed by the legendary Rick Hinderer. This is a really overbuilt knife :)
