Your "COOLEST" Knife?

[PRM1]

I have a Marine Corps WWII Stiletto that was made in Australia and issued to Marines.

It has a heavy blade with the hilt welded and the handle is stacked leather washers like a KaBar

My father was a boat coxswain in the Navy during WWII in the Pacific. He was issued this knife and brought it home. My older brother had it and gave it to me recently. I was even able to find a replacement 1943 sheath for it. The original was in pretty bad shape.

I have several “cool” knives, but as a cop I think my “Felony Stop” from Tops is notable.

For a change of pace, a few of my cooler knives. First a humble 12" pair of Chinese made knives with Jigged plastic grips, the Bowie has a nice stainless blade, the Auto also - Both are well designed & balanced, yet inexpensive tools.
Then, 2 AKC Italian Roma swing guard autos, & Chinese Auto. GODFATHER OTF spring scribe/ ice pick.
Collection of German Gravity, Flyer/Parachute knives (wood grip = WWII ) Plastic grips are post WWII.
I find lanyards on my knives very useful. The German gravity knives are to bulky & heavy for pocket carry.
I carry a Vitorinox Trekker everywhere, Or sometimes, a pretty, hand made, AKC Roma. (OK with CC permit)
