I remember I was stationed at Pope AFB (Where all the grunts get on the planes just to jump of of them) And I thought, Man, who would pay THAT much for a folder, granted a B I G folder, but sheesh. Stupid me!

Hooker, of all the knives in your pictures (great collection btw) I had a question about probably one of the least expensive. The Mora. I here nothing but good things about them. How do you like it? Easy to sharpen?
Thanks!

Been happy with the Mora. Got a deal on a pair and the user stays in the Toy Hauler Kitchen. Pretty good for food prep. I just hit it on the Spyderco sharpener once in a while and GTG. It sees a lot less use now that I got my Wiener Dog! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Hooker. For the price they seem to be well worth it. Going to pick up a few soon.

I like how you picked the Schrade over the 300$ blade that it's a copy of, lol. Knifetests.com have anything to do with that?

I'm going to try and pick one up for just that purpose, except it'll be a little more acceptable to the MPs on post as a survival knife than my Dereg would be, although I'll still pack that. The schrade will definitely be an "Oh, look, I found myself in the mountains again" blade

Smokering, you have some great blades and a nice 1911 there. Thanks for sharing.

I like those little polywogs, always struck me as a handy little sucker.

Smokering, you have some great blades and a nice 1911 there. Thanks for sharing. Thanks...I just got into fixed blades not too long ago and waited about a year to order a SY product because I discovered them when the next release wasn't available (or even pictured on the site). I think I only had 1 Kbar prior to ordering the Regulator. I've had a liking for folders for about 15 years, but nothing really over the top ($$$) or customs. The 1911 is a government Springfield Loaded...
