My personal collection consists more of daggers and swords than knives. I am the proud owner of a few knives that are odd, even for this forum. Three of my favorites are:
1) A Jabali Bowie from Muela that I had a very difficult time bringing back from Benidorm, Spain 2yrs ago.
2) A South African Okapi. Maybe the least desired knife in my collection, but the handle work is what sold me on it.
3) A German Soligen "Cat" knife issued to a German SS officer in WW II, that still "walks and talks" and could probably tell a few horror stories.

My favorites would be Case 6347 or any of the Case stockman types. My father liked Case and Queen. So I have an interest in them as well.

The hardest part about this is trying to make a choice of the favorite...Of course I am pretty simple in my approach and agree with the concept less is more...So here are my three... :o

I like the question! I must confess, I am like the rest of the knife knuts. I like just about everything. There are alot that I have not seen I'm quite sure. I started with a buck 110 way back in the day. My wife, then girlfriend, sent me a brand new one after I enlisted into the regular army as a birthday present. I have since skinned and field dressed around about 26 or so deer with that knife.....Yes, I love it!!!!! As I exited the Army I managed to keep a brand knew bayonnette and love that as a tool for several things. I then got really turned on by Case knives, and love alot of the mini's. I personally am into the toothpicks now and feel myself falling quickly for the streamlined custom knives by several people. As each day now goes by I'm thinking about things like swords and razor knifes. I'm absolutely over the edge on this whole thing.......its in the blood I suppose...........I called Bryan , this websites administrator and asked him if he had a knife that would skin a deer? That was like asking a butcher if he knows what a good cut of meat is. After a very good conversation with Bryan I purchased a very reasonably priced Benchmade knife that he recommended for skinning. I basically wanted to put the 110 up and keep it polished. Call me sentimental. I must admit the Benchmade knife Skinned 3 deer this past season and performed flawlessly. I'm truly amazed at how "obsessed" I've become with all of these gorgeous knives here at this forum, both viewed and talked about....its really cool being involved in this whole thing.
