from left: My everyday working knife, blade is just cut out with angle grinder from an old knife and polished. Next is a pattern welded blade that I bought from a smith named Götz, I just use it for special occasions and when I need something really sharp, as it was quite expensive. Last is a "Langsax" a type of long knife that was used in europe in early medieval times. The blade is from vikingcrafts.co.uk and it's not sharp, hence the rounded tip (it's for fighting) As you can see the scabbard isn't finished yet, I lack the motivation, it's been like that for allmost a year now.
All scabbards and handles are made by me.

my nicest overall is probably my Benchmade Nitrous Stryker.

it just reeks of quality and is so beautiful irl that i barely dare to use it. i'm probably going to sell it or trade it, since i can't bring myself to using it.

my EDC however is a nice and simple Spyderco Delica 4.

it doesn't look sexy, but it sure it a handy little knife. it opens nice & smooth. there is no real aggressive tip, so it's a hell of a lot more sheeple friendly than the Benchmade. and well... it's a solid working design. no bells and whistles.

i'm currently thinking of getting a Native or a Pacific Salt as well.
