Hi Birnando, there's a store just down the road from me who have a fantastic online reputation on UK knife forums I've made many purchases from them over the years If you are looking for a very comprehensive lineup including custom makers you should give them a try. Rockstead Knives --- Heinnie Haynes - Knives, Pocket Tools and Accessories
I generally have a Gerber MultiTool on my hip. A Swiss Army Tinker in my front pocket. My Smith and Wesson pocket clip folder in my back pocket. I have a Swiss Card in my wallet. A Buck Vanguard beside my seat in my car. And a small single blade on keychain. I need a bigger waist so i can have more room for stuff on my belt! Lol!
I alternate between my bench made Osbourne rift and sog trident. I do occasionally rock a crkt neck knife. When I wanna strap one on I carry either an Ontario RAK or Schrade schf10. But those bad boys are limited to long hikes and camping.
Sorry about the late response mate.Quote:

The latest Rockstead I bought was actually bought there in the end, as the supplier I originally bought it from never came thru.
It will not be my last, these knives are phenomenal performers.
Other brands will have to put out something truly special to sway me from that maker!
They are amazing. If I ever find a lefthanded one it'll be hard to keep my hand on my wallet.
Me, I've been carrying one of my self made "Little Undertakers" recently.
It's the first knife I've made that has been able to kick all my folding knives out of my pocket for weeks at a time. It's gone through a lot of fruit, carboard, flooring, packages, tomatoes, meat etc etc and it just keeps on cutting. I hate to beat my own chest....but I knocked this one out of the park.
Here it is along with the Fountain pen that was turned for me by an SRP member years ago.

That's a great looking little knife mate. Love it!
Mick
My EDC is a Cold Steel Voyager 6' tanto point with no serrations. people always ask why i carry such a larger knife around but it really has come in handy a few times.
Edit: I also keep a large fixed blade in my car with a paracord wrapped handle just in case. Both are kept sharp.
Thanks Mick, I made a couple more in that same shape in different variations and I'm planning two more when I get around to it.Quote:

There is not much that cannot be cut between these two puppies;)

I've been carrying a clone of the cupid otf made by Rob Dalton if I remember correctly. It's a cheap piece of chinese steel but it cuts tape and covers general warehouse work nicely. The clone I carry is the same knife the Joker used in The Dark Knight. Cool factor :rock:
