My 2nd passion after guns is knives. Esp Auto Knives.
I own a Couple Benchmade Auto openers and im wanting to add another one to my collection and was wondering if anyone on here was the same and what they thought of my next purchase.

Good topic. Personally I know next to nothing about hunting or combat knives, but I wouldn't mind learning and picking up 1 or 2 nice ones.

I have a ton of fighting knives myself. A few K-bars also.

Once the car is back on the road I am going to be looking for a SF K-Bar.

The Hunted is famous among knife collectors because it introduced what is now known in the knife community as the Tracker blade. The blade was already gathering much attention when it was first designed by Tom Brown.

I gotta look into the benchmade auto's. Look like nice pieces. Carried a lot of hardware in my military career and always liked the spring assisted Kershaws. I was never sure if the auto's would hold up to field conditions. By the way, thank you for your service Gunners Mate.

One of my Kershaws' springs busted. I took it apart, and the thing was just split right in the middle.

It still works well as a standard folder, though.

Speaking of OTF knives, anyone have any experience with the Microtech Makora or the Pirahna Excalibur?

Knives are cool toys and handy working tools.I cary a spyderco or a SOG.I have several others also kershaw assisteds and I really like that knife in the pic in the first post I may have to check into one.Not big into collecting just collect ones I use and carry,still like the old case's and hate that gerber is pushing a lot of junk now.

I agree. Not into collecting them either. I carry a SOG Flash II for normal cutting stuff and carry a Cold Steel Safe maker II push dagger and a Kershaw Ripcord knife for SHTF situations.
I really like the Kershaw b/c it is fast deployment and when worn on a duty belt, doesn't really look like a knife. Don't wanna look like Rambo out there and get ppl calling the desk lol!

you ever notice when you walk into these little quicky marts the cheap knives they sell resemble spydercos they are a heavily coppied knife,probably because it was one or it is the original folder with a built in clip.A clip on a knife is a big sell for me since I use them for work almost all my knives have them

Spyderco Civilian
One bad bitch. First day I got it, I was cleaning the lubricant at the bottom of the blade and slipped and sliced my finger to the bone. One mean bitch that loves the taste of blood.LOL
Watch the youtube vid on the bottom!!!!

In Kansas...........

..............(yeah, people really live in this shithole), you can get a license to carry a concealed handgun, anything that you can conceal, I guess; but you can't carry a "dangerous knife" - a knife with a blade longer than 4 1/2". No wonder the rest fo the country laughs at us.
