The blue and silver knives are new. I carry the silver one. It's spring assisted and a really nice knife.

Oh, you... :D

I have this: (Kershaw Leek or Chive or whatever. It's got the little twitch trigger thing, too, which is cool)

and then some teensy tiny little Buck lockback that's supposed to go on a keychain (like a 1-1.5" blade), that I use for dissecting and masticating fruit in a casual, picnic-based setting.

I bought mine when I was 17 and it was cool to have a knife. I never use it or carry it with me anywhere these days. I have no use it, or very little. :)

Used Knife

Some awesome knives in this thread!

I just bought this knife yesterday at an antique store in Stillwater, MN. It was $5.00, so I think it was worth it. I used it to cut hot-dog-cooking-sticks while camping.

I have the same knife Melrose posted, the Kershaw Leek. Honestly, I just use it as a glorified letter opener and box cutter. I work in IT, so I sometimes use it to cut cables and cable ties as well. I also carry a Leatherman multitool, and it has proven handy.

AK-74 bayonet, bought it when I was 16 or so on a flea market.

I'm not a collector though, just got it for its looks. Only had to wear it once, but the rest of the time it stays at home, buried in a box somewhere.
