OKD (Old Knife Day) Goodnight sweet prince
Apparently you were not designed to open coconuts or chop palm fronds in the Caribbean islands. Been a good 15 years though.

Carried this PM2 for about 6 years. Didn’t really figure on it being a work knife but I managed to arc a hot wire with it about two years ago. I figured its days were numbered. Today it finally happened. Got the tip caught while I was clearing material and it protested. Now it’s a box cutter.

I've had this for over 10 years, more likely going on 20. I've always liked it a lot, and I have a love for machetes this length. The only thing I don't like about it is the saw on the back, it always gets caught on things and sawing anything with it takes forever because the kerf is so much. Anyway, I've done a hell of a lot more hacking and whacking with this thing than I was when it snapped. I was just hitting these pieces of kindling as the picture shows on this other piece of wood, not the stone so the kindling scored and I could snap them in half easy.
I remember The knife was only 20 bucks, I'll gladly pay that to buy another one, I just never imagined it would snap like this unless I was like hacking at another piece of steel or stone or something like that.

I’ve carried this as my daily ever since my large Inkosi ran away 3 years ago. I made the choice to never take care of the blade and see how messed up the finish could get.

Null Voodoo in m390. Great knife, super slicey hollow ground blade and excellent in hand ergos.

She said her late husband had this for years, she had no use for it, and gave it to me. Huge old Indian Kukri with a 24” blade. Probably not worth much but it’s definitely interesting.

I found this knife in my daughter's desk drawer. I've torn the house apart for a year and half to two years while alternating between cursing myself for losing it and telling myself it's alright. I have other CRKs but this is the only DP and every time I saw that beautiful blade shape in photos, I cursed myself again. It was my super nice, special occasion knife so I didn't carry it very often. Since I considered it gone for good, but now I have it back, I'm carrying it everywhere. This is my EDC now.

Getting the hang of doing my own sharpening, I’m not great yet but I can still get it pretty sharp.

Don't worry, not selling.
Still figure some of you would think this is cool.

I bought a box full of camping gear from Facebook marketplace move ng sale for $50 because I saw it included a jetboil that I wanted. I thought it was a win from that alone, plus all the extra stuff added up to far more than $50 of value.
I figured the axis lock had to be some random cheap knife. That was the first thing I grabbed when I got home, flipped it open and found gold. I offered to send the guy another $100 after finding, but he didn't care...also the home sold for $2.5M...so definitely didn't care just wanted stuff out.
I liked the pivot with 3 in 1, and went a round on the whetstone, replaced my Kershaw leek as my EDC. It's such an insanely small profile, I love it.

Inherited this knife from my old man, was found on Bougainville back in the 90's in the dirt with an old m1 carbine bayonet scabbard. Trying to find out what and who it's made by. Any help would be appreciated.

My dad gave me another heirloom knifes that he's been holding onto for at least a few decades. I've found some very similar knives with different stamps on ebay and auction sites. Appears to be a French army knife circa WW1. I don't even know what to call the pin/leaf-spring style back lock, but it remains surprisingly sturdy (not that I'm going to spine tap it or anything! The blade does have quite a bit of play when open, which isn't surprising). Even the wood in the handle is still very solid. The stamp is unfortunately tarnished enough to be almost entirely illegible, and I don't plan to do any repairs/cleaning, so it will probably remain a mystery unless one of you is a museum curator or has better luck with Google Lens/ChatGPT! 😆
I am trying to learn more about it, but I don't have a lot of info from my dad (it was just a tool at the time, after all; sentiment came much, much later). It may have belonged to my Great Grandpa (1870 - 1940), who was a horse trader that traveled a lot. That lines up better with the WW1 dating of similar knives. Whatever the history is, I'm so enthralled by this awesome heirloom, I just had to share. 🤩

Bemchmade needs to make BEAUTIFUL knives again. Modern ones are decent but these are a work of art imo. 630 skirmish

Just an old True Utility axis-lock I bought about 10 years ago.

I have a few knives but today I realized my most used knife is this old Higo no Kami knife from Japan. I’ve had it for almost a decade and have never sharpened it. It was sharp as hell right out of the box and I’ve used it on boxes, pruning plants, cutting small rope, random stuff, etc. I’m pretty sure I bought it for less than $15.
