I was searching my office today for some Bluetooth hardware and stumbled on the little lockblade knife our detachment commander gifted me. Its about eight inches long when open, Very comfortable to hold...

I don't get it. What do you use these knives for? If I owed these knives and used them for "tactical" reasons, I wouldn't display them on a public forum. Just sayin', you know? (I know you don't know ... ).

 

[mrpinter]

I collect them. I don't have any intention of using them as weapons. There's a lot of technology involved with some of them. They're interesting to me. I'm interested in watches and guitars for the same reason. And I have some that I do use for everyday tasks like opening things. If this thread bothers you... you don't have to participate.

 

[rockandroller]

The human drive for "collecting" isn't limited just to guitars!

Something I just noticed about my collection is that there is a sub theme of miniature knives. These are definitely not what you would call tactical, more like everyday carry or utility:

Extrema Ratio BF0. ~2.5" blade, N690 steel, Italian


MKM Isonzo, 2.25" blade, M390 steel, Italian


Pro-Tech Runt 5 (auto), 1.9" blade, Magnacut steel, USA


Spyderco Manbug, 1.9" blade, Micro Melt PD#1 steel, Japan


Spyderco Dragonfly, 2-5/16" blade, VG10 steel, Japan
