Show off your fixed blades!

[jerryd6818]

Bob, if you're talking to me Jerry, it's on my wish list. I'll have to wait and see if there are any crumbs left in the Christmas fund on December 26th.

[gringo]

here is a new one for me...marbles, bakelite pommel, brass guard.

[tongueriver]

Josh Fisher fighter, 12 and 1/8 inches overall. Josh made journeyman bladesmith this year and I wanted to jump on this before he got so famous I couldn't buy one. As it is, I had to put it on "layaway," if you remember that system. Golly, it is just swell!!! It came with a jim dandy sheath, as well, which I have not shown. This is a studio pic; I didn't take it. This is my only custom fixed blade, if I don't count the Ruana knives I have. Those are special to me too, but I use them. I don't think I will be knockin' this one around!

[jerryd6818]

Daaaaang. No wonder he made journeyman bladesmith. That is just spectacular.

[tongueriver]

Thank you for the kind words.

One I forgot about and have been too lazy to dig it out and take pictures so I stole a picture off eBay.

Buck Nighthawk 650. Not a top end knife but built very well. It's the older version like this with the black box.

[philco]

Here's one that just arrived yesterday. I've been wanting one of these for quite a while, but for the life of me, I can't explain why.

SOG Gov Tac. 11 1/4 inches in length. Blade Aus 8 stainless steel. Kraton handles.

[jmh58]

That is nice phil!! I LIKE it!! John

[tjmurphy]

Jerry and Phil, I'm not much of a fixed-blade guy, but I do like both of those

[jerryd6818]

Very nice Phil. There are two or three SOG fixed blades I covet. There's just something about them...

[Quick Steel]

Jerry: I think the lines of the Nighthawk are exceptional for a knife at that price point. A good looking design.

SOG Gov Tac. 11 1/4 inches in length. Blade Aus 8 stainless steel. Kraton handles.

Philco: Your SOG looks like it can take on just about anything.

[Quick Steel]

A Marbles (USA).

[1967redrider]

Sweet knife, Quick Steel!


Here's my newest fixed blade, a Coleman/Western W49 with sheath. It is the mac-daddy of bowies, 14 1/2" from tip to tail.

[Quick Steel]

Good catch and good photos.

[WelderBob]

Jim Behring's Recon Hunter...wicked sharp and a very comfortable handle design.

[philco]

WelderBob that knife looks like it's well made and ready for rugged work. What is the handle material ?

[WelderBob]

The handle is linen micarta, blade is 3/16" O1 tool steel with a chromiun finish. Jim builds a quality knife.

[tongueriver]

I am not much for most modern styled knives, but that Treeman is obviously a really good one. I like it!

[Old Hunter]

Quick Steel and Red Rider - you guys are carrying some steel with those blades! Welder Bob, your Recon Hunter is the first modern fixed blade I've seen that has that old time "sizzle" - nice! OH

[jerryd6818]

One of my grandson's was oogling the Buck fixed blades at the Janesville Knife Show this fall so I picked up this 119 for his Christmas present. I keep forgetting what a great knife these are, in hand.

[Quick Steel]

1. Shrade U.S. PH2 2. Cold Steel U.S. made with Carbon 5 steel (no longer available).

[trapper]

Heres my boker el trampero 25th anniversary ed. pics arent so great, sorry for that.

[dbkerley]

I don't know much about this one other tan it isn't old and is supposedly made using traditional methods.

[Sasquach]

Here's one that showed up on my birthday.

[dbkerley]

Nice. My wife just gave me a new Ka-Bar USMC. I won't post a pic because I think we all know what they look like.
She also got me a lovely scrimshaw folder years ago. I don't remember the artist though.
