Okay, we often discuss our first knives here usually given to us by a parent or grandparent, etc. But what about the first quality knife you bought for yourself. For me it was a Victorinox Tinker when I was about 15. I had a fair number of knives (some decent, some utter crap) that had been given to me for Christmas, birthdays, etc., or that Id picked up from friends via the swap block.
But that Tinker was the first time I ever saved up my own money and went down to the store and bought myself a quality knife. I carried it everywhere with me yep, even school, although it was forbidden. Unfortunately, our senior class in high school took one of those three-day booze cruises to the Bahamas and it got confiscated while we were boarding the ship.
