| The fire is everything... ![]() | Hm, I don't really have a favorite knife, but I do really like my Leatherman Supertool.. I use it daily, both at home and work... If I must pick out a favorite knife it must be the Gurkha Kukri knife.. (Just because it's sooo cool. You can find a lot of different knives here: http://www.military-quotes.com/milit...ary-knives.htm |

| Primus Pilus | My favorit is the KA-BAR. I'm looking into buying one of those seal knives (see Redlegs link) for when I go diving this summer.

| Immunes | Knife is a broad ranger....here our my favorites by catgory.... Favorite pocket folder No contest, The Kershaw Ken Onion Leek......and for style the Rainbow leek.....it's sexy....and I love the Speed Safe technology that makes it work just like an automatic without the legal troubles. ![]() Favorite tactical fighter There are several I could choose from. KaBar is old faithful, but it really is nothing new either, it's not my favorite, but I certainly know you can count on it. Cold Steel makes some great bang for the buck knives, that are very high quality, and as dependable as Ka-Bar...but the one I love most, is very functional and feels as good as it looks.....? The Masters of Defense Mark 5 CQD ATAC Fighter... "Like the entire MOD line, the blade features advanced metals, cryogenic metal conditioning, and the meticulous attention to detail recognized by the voters at this years show. Intended as a full-on combat fighter, the ATAC features a non-conductive handle with a built -in hammer in the pommel." Besides even a klingon could dig it. ![]() Favorite Stealth Knife.. Not sure this is really a catagory...but I think of a dagger in a seperate context from other tacticals........best reproduction of the case ww2 legend...Hanwei's reproduction of the infamous v42 knife. It far exceeds the Devil's Brigade original, and it's just a pleasure to hold, can shave the hair off my arm right out of the box. Very rugged too.... ![]() Favorite Automatic. Benchmade means incredible quality. I feel the knives of the Mel Pardue line are the best all around automatic knives you can buy. I am still intrigued by the MOD line...but until I am able to torture them, I stand by the Benchmade. The 3200 also is sexy to boot......(I like my knives sexy) ![]() Of course I could go on about more knives I love, and start a whole topic about swords.....=P

| Centurion | I like my WWII/Vietnam bayonet, it looks pimp has a blood groove and is a stabbin knife. I had a assisted opening knife but it broke, and my good ole stinger knife is the coolest, you wear it around your chest. ![]()
