I have to say, it's one of the sharpest blades I've ever owned. I have other Microtech autos, but this otf is probably my favorite knife ever.

Agreed, great knife and practical.

Thought I'd share tonight's project...

Sharpening my Mel Pardue Design Benchmade 531, and my Arkansas Master's Damascus Steel "Camp Chopper."

The pic really doesn't do it justice, but the character lines in this steel really makes this one interesting to me... --JBinDC

Beautiful.

We really need to have a 'bring your knife' show/tell Meetup. Someone organize one within 10 miles of Fort Meade, I'll try to be there!

Some of my favorite pocket knives with their original boxes...

This collection belonged to my Uncle. When he passed away it was sold in an estate sale along with many other collectibles. I just thought I'd share.

That Hitler youth knife appears to be in amazing condition! I would love to have one.

Nevermind. I zoomed in and it clearly says replica on the tag. I was wondering how it was so nice. Makes sense now.

I dream of finding an estate sale like your uncle's estate.
What a nice collection he had. Thanks for sharing.

I would have kept a few pieces but I'm not a collector and really don't know much about them. I did keep a few small knives. My Uncle collected most of his life. Guns, swords, knives, badges, coins, etc...... Much of his collection was sold in the estate sale, but all of these blades actually were sold to someone that once was a member here, not sure if he is still around. He and his Dad bought all of the swords and knives as well as a Luger and 2 Arisaka Rifles. I sold some of the firearms at Howard Co. and Timonium shows and several antique firearms at the Baltimore Antique Arms shows. I did, however decide to hold onto a very nice collection of Colt pistols including a couple SA Army revolvers.

I was looking for a good hand-forged and individually heat-treated single-edged fixed-blade camping knife "of substantial size" and finally decided to pull the trigger on this one-

How many inches is "of substantial size"?

Guess that depends on where you are from.

Not terribly fancy, but I'm very fond of my new work knife...

Doesn't Ocean City have a no knife ordinance?

Good question.

My understanding is that they were able to pass a 'no spring assisted' knife ordnance.

Thankfully, this knife is not spring assisted, so contrary to this ridiculous local law, to my understanding, it is universally legal in all of Maryland.

Here are the specs:
Overall Length: 16.75"
Blade Length: 11.25"
Cutting Edge: 10.50"
Blade Thickness: 0.28"
Blade Material: Swedish High Carbon Tool Steel
Blade Style: Spear Point
Blade Grind: Convex
Finish: Satin
Edge Type: Plain
Handle Length: 5.50"
Handle Thickness: 0.87"
Handle Material: Walnut/Brass
Weight: 2 lbs. 3.60 oz.
Sheath: Leather
Knife Type: Fixed Blade
Brand: Svord
Model: Ned Kelly Toothpick, Limited Edition
Country of Origin: New Zealand

I wanted something handmade but not machete-esque like a Bowie, Kukri or Arkansas Toothpick w/leather sheath and thick, heavy spine to support the edge on powerful cuts that would be equally good at stabbing, slashing, hacking and chopping. After almost 6 months of looking, I finally settled on the Svord NKT...and I am a sucker for the case-hardened-steel look.
