If Dan made the knife I describe in this thread my "ideal minimum user knife collection would be":

Swamp Warden = EDC pocket carry
Architect's Campivore = small field knife (companion to something larger)
S5LE = can only have one with me today in the field, and the ASH-1 is too big
ASH-1 = general go to camping & survival
NMSFNO = bug-out (companion to Architect's Campivore)
NMFSH = get to da choppa (companion to Architect's Campivore and/or S5LE)

I guess I've found I like to have knives in size ranges:

Under 3"
Around 5"
Around 7"
Around 8"
Around 10"

Its great to live in America.
