yep, when i cant find that one there isn’t one that feels right for the task for sure, even my other box cutters don’t seem to compare to the feel of that one.
careful man - do you notice any correlations between days you might have an argument and days you find it open???

This knife lives on my side table.
I do try to shame her into keeping it closed which is maybe a dangerous mistake

Am I glad to have found this thread! I’m going to have to get into my knife drawers tonight and post a few, nothing too rare but I did go on a bit of a collecting spree in the early pandemic and picked up some nice limited editions of folders I’ve been wanting for a while, along with some bigger fixed blades for woods use, since I’ve been doing a lot more bushwhacking and camping without indoor activities as an option.
@DougDawson nice collection! Makes sense you like knives if you’re starting a fire with a hand drill, and I agree, a Mora is a fine knife and I’d rather have a Companion HD on my belt than a lot of other, much more expensive knives.
@Metz2 now that’s an honest knife! I don’t have a picture of my old one, it’s in a box somewhere, but I was a baker for many years and this was my daily carry in the back pocket of my floury khakis:

Here’s what was in the drawer by the front door, which is probably a good representation of what’s ACTUALLY in my pockets most of the time. I’m a lefty so most of my knives are left clip tip up carry, or no clip. I like simple blade profiles with continuous belly, and medium priced supersteels as well as Swedish stainless and carbon:
Two CPM-20CV special edition folders, a Kershaw Bareknuckle, and a Spyderco Dragonfly 2 with black and red Zome hand dyed FRN scales. 20CV is my favorite supersteel, it’s not insane to sharpen but it is tough as nails and holds an edge forever, and hasn’t rusted on me yet. The Bareknuckle is a nasty flipper that’s very fast and pointy and I usually don’t open it around people, it’s for big cutting and self defense. The Dragonfly doesn’t scare anyone, but it’ll still cut most things.
A CJRB Mini Feldspar in D2 and undyed jade G10, probably my most carried knife if not the Dragonfly. Nice classy and rugged thumbstud flipper, great blade profile, looks “cute” apparently, D2 is awesome and fun to sharpen, couple rust spots but for $27 I don’t care, I get out the rust eraser a couple times a year and try to remember to oil it. The Opinel Slim Inox is my food knife for cutting up fruit or a steak with that lives in a bag when I travel.
Never been too much of a Leatherman guy but I’ve had this original Seki Japan all-metal SOG Toolclip for twenty years and I love it, it’s the definition of a brick in both pocket weight and durability. Nice sharp blade with a very stiff slip joint, and the wire cutters in the jaws are excellent. The prybar that’s also the pliers handle gets a lot of work opening paint cans and generally keeping me from prying with a knife.
I think the common thread in almost all my knives is that I tend to like a thinner blade, or at least a high grind to thin behind the edge. Geometry cuts, after all.
