I have an attraction for small fixed blade knives. Most of mine are cheapies but they have a certain mystique. (to me)
What do you have?

I've only got 1, this Parker Bros. boot knife. I used to sell a ton of these at gunshows back in the day.

Cold Steel Spike. Kind of a pig sticker and not really small but it could be used as a boot knife I suppose.

I made this boot knife for one of the custom combiners who stayed behind our place a couple of years ago, he wanted one to attach to his boot. O-1 and canvas micarta.

Picked up this little cutie at a live auction today. Nice aged ivory micarta scales that have been scrimshawed. 6 1/2" overall with a 2 3/4" blade. Signed Lappin, USA. I am not familiar with the maker but it is a nice little knife.

Rick, I also have one of those Cold Steel Spikes. Nifty little knife and if my stomach was as flat as it was for the first 50 years of my life I could hang it around my neck beneath my t-shirt. Sadly that is no longer the case.

I also have a CRKT 2385 Folts Mimimalist that was a gift from someone. Generous giver, please remind me so I can record it like I should have done in the first place. This baby is also a slick motor scooter and is coveted by my two best friends.

One I wish I still had and I kick myself for trading it was the Gerber Frisco Shiv, which was designed by Blackie Collins. Remember that one? I carried it on a neck cord and it had a release button on the handle to unlatch it from the hard plastic molded sheath. But then like Jerry said, I would not be able to carry it on a neck cord now like I used to. LOL

Well I went the other way in the weight department...when I walked out of
the GM Willow Run plant for the last time..6-1-06,, with my bibs, boots, etc. I
got on the parts scale and went 286 lbs...I went right to work on it faithfully
and have not topped 180 lbs in the last 7 years..172 lbs currently

Promised I would post the 2 knives I have with me in winter camp
a knife from the movie Total Recall push dagger made into a boot knife with Stag scales
a Mini Woodcraft Stag on Stag made by Bob Young, retired knife maker and foreman at Marble's back in the day
Wife made me the sheath out of the top of one of her old moccasins

I also have an affection for small fixed blade boot knives. To me, the biggest problem with a lot of knives of this type is that the handle is too heavy for a balanced knife and too heavy to carry in my boot. Here are four of mine. The Parker on the left was my first boot knife and I did carry it some and the handle is way to heavy. Next to the Parker is a Cold Steel interpretion of the Scottish Skean Dhu. It is the best designed boot knife that I have ever come across, perfect size and weight, with a sheath that is just as practical as the knife. Third from the left is a small kukri that I got from
Atlanta Cutlery. Probably made by Windlass Steelcrafts in India, though I am not certain. It was not sold as a boot knife but it is perfect, with a light weight horn handle that balances the blade and fits in a Wellington boot just right. The knife on the right is the most expensive of the four, it came from A G Russell. The knife is well made, but like the Parker, the handle is just too heavy for that knife. I want a knife to sit snug in my boot, not flop because the balance point is in the middle of the grip instead of at the guard.

What a beautiful knife, Doug; did anyone get the Pearl Buck connection?

tongueriver · Post by **tongueriver** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 12:23 am

Only daggers I own are M3s, this Aerial and a Boker repro. Not small enough to qualify here but big enough to REALLY do the job.
