I carry a small EDC fixed blade (2.5" length and 5 3/4" overall; custom JK-knife) every day. It is great for all kinds of little cutting chores like opening boxes, those nasty clam shells, sharpening my pencils (everybody laughs at that but it works well), cutting fruits and veggies at lunch etc.
My larger fixed blades go camping with me. When I'm car camping, I love bring a wack of blades and just trying them out on everything from splitting wood to chopping. Then of course there are plenty of day hikes where beyond walking the dogs, a main purpose is to take knife shots in the field. The camera has to have something to bring the wilderness into perspective. What better object to accomplish this then a knife stuck in a tree?
Well since I don't have any Busse family knives yet I wont post shots of them, but when the SOD comes in I'll include it as one of the working models.

I use my Rat Trap every day. I use it to open mail, open boxes and and even open some sealed food containers. I have used it to slice pepperoni, too. My fixed blades see little use except for my choppers and machetes. When hiking, I often carry a fixed blade, usually a bowie, tucked in my waistband. If I am packing a revolver, then I usually just carry a folder. I seldom camp or hunt any more, so I don't know why I keep accumulating the large camp knives. Maybe I just like having them around.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I find stuff to use my knifes on, it is funny though, I have a $2.00 cheap folding key chain knife on my keys that I use all the time and the wife gives me grief "you have hundreds upon thousands of dollars worth of knives in your safe and all you use is this little cheap one" LOL funny but true, she isn't laughing though when I am splitting fire wood on our camping trips

Now why did you go and void the warranty like that. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Nice collection of DMCG ColdOne. I need to find myself 1 or 2 more of the original DMCG. I love them.

Dudes I hate to admit it, but mine are all just eye candy. I get great joy out of just admiring them in their new condition. I take them out of the safe, FONDLE them wipe them down, and put them back. Although I would like to take one of my larger choppers out, and use it to build an overnight shelter. Also to chop wood for a fire. That would be FUN.
