View Full Version : WHAT KIND OF KNIVES WE CARRY
jim sylvester 03-28-2006, 02:12 PM Getting the gear ready for the season and noticed my titanium dive knife can't hold and edge any more.....time for a new one
Wondering what kind of knives we are using either in our bag, on our belt or on our leg.
nightfighter 03-28-2006, 02:27 PM why my K bar of course:bl2:

Rockport24 03-28-2006, 03:50 PM I use this:
Rockport24 03-28-2006, 03:53 PM okay, seriously, I use this, got it at target for like $25 I think.
i never carry a knife. :huh:
Raven 03-28-2006, 04:56 PM i usually have two knives on me at ALL times... all my tools have to
be as "sharp" as a razor.
i have weapons at the ready strategically positioned near my doors.
for fishing i usually have a buck filet knife strapped on my hip.
in my kitchen i have a sword where i can get to it in a hurry.
i keep a dingo ....that can hear a pin drop.
i sleep very lightly next to my shotgun.
i dont trust anyone farther than i can throw them unless they earned it.
Like SALTY...i have been burned way to many times. :hs:
BigFish 03-28-2006, 04:58 PM :hidin: :err: :huh:
piemma 03-28-2006, 05:02 PM I have been in the surf for 30+ years and never carried a knife. I can't think of an instance where I needed one either. I have several in my truck but my pliers with the side cutters always seems to be enough.
RIROCKHOUND 03-28-2006, 05:16 PM I carry a short kitchen knife on my belt. Usually add another on my calf or arm if I'm wetsuiting in rough/rocky water... the back-up is a mychelyn (spelled wrong I know) shark knife which is a small 1 piece safety knife.
Diggin Jiggin 03-28-2006, 05:37 PM Just a small rapala fillet knife on my belt on my right hip. Funny thing is when I'm jigging I use the knife all the time, cutting braid and changing frayed leaders. It's the pliers I rarely need. Thats the best thing about a jig, they pop right out....
ThrowingTimber 03-28-2006, 05:51 PM Gerber paratrooper daily carry.
Blunt nosed I forget the name dive knife if Im in the wetsuit. Stupid freakin Lobster POTS!!!!!!!! :af:

how about that night when i snuck up on you @ your rock :hihi: :lasso:
JFigliuolo 03-28-2006, 06:41 PM My POS Rapala knife... sharp enough for whatever I need it for... (Usually gutting fish on the rocks)
RIROCKHOUND 03-28-2006, 06:49 PM I use this:
Thats not a knife....
This is a knife....
Max Power 03-28-2006, 06:57 PM I keep a good, sturdy fixed blade knife on me. I forget the exact brand. Contrary to popular belief its not for fighting off sharks, breaking locks on fences, or killing people on who are in my spot. Its for cutting through all that supposedly "non-ripable materail" your gear's made of. Lets say you get knocked down your bag, belt, what ever is wedged under a rock or something and you can't get up. Now you're about to drown as waves conitiue to wash over you, but you don't because you cut the bag strap and save your life rather than fumbling with the strap. Completely hypothetical, hope it doesn't happen, but it could.
Aragorn 03-28-2006, 07:07 PM I carry a basic 6" filet knife with the tip blunted, it is easier to gut, scale fish on the water then in the kitchen
2 knifes,one is a Rapala knife and the other is a Benchmade H2O.

Moses 03-28-2006, 08:54 PM 7.5" Diver's knife strapped to my leg (especially when I fish the ditch at night).....

RIROCKHOUND 03-29-2006, 08:30 AM Well, it's a wonder they let you have anything sharp at all...
The Meds must be working :D
I stopped buying expensive knives of any kind a few years ago, I've lost spyderco, gerber etc.. I know buy $9 folding knives at west marine for day to day..

WTF? Handguns?
I haven't pissed that many people off.
Leatherman Wave & Buck 114 Ranger for fresh.
Gerber pliers & serrated edge Gator for salt.
And the absolute best thing to get rid of any kind of human intrusion? Parodis.
Nasty little black Italian cigars. Like from the old Clint Eastwood movies. Things I learned from my father.
They keep the bugs away from ME.
Like the poor skunk?
