RW, are you referring to the pointy fixed blade at the very bottom / very left?
I would like to see a close up of it. It looks nice. I like pointy sometimes!

I can remember getting one like that in my stocking for Christmas one year way back when I was around 6 or so... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Brings back memories... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Nothing like color coordination I guess. Imagine being in a position to choose today's EDC based on wardrobe choice.

thanks alot willie,
i had to buy a muddy AD after lusting after your collection <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> Good for you Vance. I think the AD is a nice "tweener." I'm hoping mine will carry well. I have one of Rainwalker's xloop sheaths on order. With the Xloop, I'll be able to carry either horizontally or vertically. When you get your AD, I'd love to see some pics.

Here's an old photo of some of my EDCs. I've tried to keep it limited to 5" and under. I've added a few knives since this was taken; Busse Sage Meaner, Koster Dankura, another Koster K_TUSK, Scrapyard Yard Keeper, SwampRat RatManDu. Boy Ted, when looking at your extensive collection, I see some familiar faces. The old Gerbers, the Karda, the Slither, and the HI Kerambit, for example. I sent my Gerber MKI, Command I and others over to Iraq as part of the Knives for a Soldier Program a few years ago. How do you like your HI Kerambit? I feel fortunate to come away with all my fingers and toes every time I handle mine. The supplied sheath is really hazardous and I've not gotten around to replacing it.

I totally agree that the SS4 is perfect when it has been stripped ,polished and reprofiled. I used to like black blades but after having them get all scratched and ugly after hard use with no way to repair them now I much prefer the satin or polished. I espesially like the Mercworx finish that can be fixxed with a scotchguard pad.

The Scout knife IS an official Boy Scout knife. I think it's my second or third knife ever. I like the kerambit, but wish it was smaller. I got a kydex sheath from Dan Koster and that works WAAAY better than the original one. The long pointy knife is by Jim Rehrer http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=458048
