What's you favorite fighting knife? I know lots of people collect some really nice fighters. I'd love to see pics of some of your favorites!
 
That's easy. The Guinn Ring Fighter:

Failing that, probably my 41MC. Maybe one of those SFM16s. I'd really like a khukuri....the problem with fixed blades is that....I don't carry fixed blades EDC. So they'd be rather hard to deploy.
 
The only fighter I have. Wilson Tactical Model 2: 5" D2 blade (measured along bottom of blade), Micarta handle. This is as big a knige as I would ever want.
 
Whatever you may say or post about him,it is just that (your opinion).But. His fighters,Mercs' in particular,are among the best and stand the test of time.
 
My favorite fighters are the Loveless Big Bear subhilts. The top one in the photo below.

My favorite is fighter is my Camillus Southwest Bowie:



But since I can't legally carry it in Texas, the fighter I actually have with me most often is the Mobius Clip-Point I designed and made:

My favorite fighter is the Bill Bagwell Hell's Belle...Of the knives I own, it would be my new Benchmade 10520 Offsider:

My 2 favorites are the Brend Mod 2 and Jerry Hossom's Revenge. Not only are the knives wonderful, but both of these gentlemen are Gentlemen, with the big "G" :thumbup:
 
Boker Combat Smatchet designed by Rex Applegate & W.L. Fairbairn. I have the version with black micarta handle slabs #785/1200. Handle ergos are perfect for me. Yes the blade is of outdated 440C which many feel is not appropriate for this style of fighter. Yet, I would consider buying an identical one with tougher blade steel, if I could find a maker.

But I can say, I have chopped many types of wood with it; Wailing away full bore.....No damage. I keep one edge at a steep angle, very sharp which I save for fine cutting. The other, thicker edge is the one I chop with.

Fortunately, I never had to use this knife for its primary purpose but feel the wide, leaf-shaped blade and double edge would produce a devastating stab wound. The heft of the knife gives it IMO, the wallop of a short sword.
 
I own the SOG Government Agent and I feel unstoppable with that. However I would really like their new version, the Gov-Tac. Same basic knife, with better steel and Ti coating. It just feels too good.
