That's correct mate. The Lastu isn't as shiny anymore
right beauties mate, glad to see they have "proper" grinds
I lost mine over Brecon Beacons in 2004
Off to the Beacons with a metal detector looking for treasure

Rusty warped and useless treasure by now mate.
This thing.
Grohmann large camper in stainless and when it wears out I'll get another dead like it but pehaps with more washing up resistant scales (micarta?) I use it for everything including all the cooking at home.

I'll snap a few pics later after I take my daughter to school.
I only have a couple, but I'm working on more

Toddy - is that Mora 2010 massive or are the rest of your knives tiny?
Here are my main users:
Modified old hicks butcher, very proud of this one as it was the first good convex I did
My custom Bushcrafter, blade by Bernie Garland in o1 steel and handle by me in dyed-thru curly birch - this is my "standalone" knife when I don't want to carry knife + axe or bigger knife.
My Enzo Nordic 95 in Red mallee, handled by me - the deepest biting knife I have, even more so than my mora sloyd.
That Hankala above really looks sweet though! I try to avoid lookin at them!

My two sets, I keep one in a bug out bag, the other is my camping set.
Busse Fusion Battle Mistress (FBM) INFI steel, 10" blade, fat micarta grips
Dan Koster Bushcraft in 01, with OD Micarta
Roselli Axe, the long handle one
Off The Map Custom Knives, Bushcraft in A2, natural canvas micarta, matching firesteel
My EDC, which when it gets orange G10 scales made (waiting on the postman so I can make them) it will be coming with me.
Emerson Collectors Association, Knife of the Year 2009.
A131, 154cm steel, black G10 scales, Ti linerlock.
These three are on the way, the Landi PSK will most definately be coming, and the other two need sheathing before I make any decisions about them. I guess you need a backup or two right?

First of all, sorry for the horrible pictures.
I was using these before I moved and temporarily lost woods access.
Once I locate some suitable land I'll be using my ESEE (formerly RAT Cutlery) RC-4. It's the bottom left in this terrible picture of my knives.
I've got more knives now but it's nice to see that I'm not "infected" as badly as some of you are, or at least not any worse.
Oh and I almost forgot, this one will be accompanying me on future woodland outings as well. My only modern folder and pretty much the only one I liked the looks of. Spyderco Endura 4 with foliage green G-10 scales and flat ground blade.
I still like the looks of more traditional knives better though.

My favourite of several years would have to be this one..
.... over the last 1 1/2 years this one has also proven to be a great bushcraft knife....
I'm about 2 months into a 6 month evaluation of this next one and I continue to be really impressed with its' performance on seasoned Aussie hardwoods....
Aren't we all lucky to have access to such a wide range of fine blades
Kind regards
Mick

I think it's massive
okenest: and the rest are a really good size I'm not tiny, I'm just on the small side. I take a 6 or a 6.5 in a glove.
Besides, I can do anything with those knives that you can do with the bigger ones
I think I'm going to start a new thread.
"What do you actually use your knife for ? "
be interesting to see the replies.cheers,
Toddy
I mostly use this.
It is an old (discontinued) Brusletto Storhallingen with a homemade sheath.
