Inexpensive Time Proven Knives

[Snow Walker]

Let's see your least expensive knives which have more then proven themselves.

My first all time favorite which I carried in combat and still to this day is the K-bar.

My other favorite is the Mora line-up in general. This is a newer model, but I have put it to alot of use. Mora has always impressed me with what you get for the price and the use you get out of them! I hate their sheaths though!!!

As I have said, we love our Mora knives! Ive had an old Buck knife, still works well.

Moras are definately the top of the list for inexpensive and efficient field knives. I would also add Victorinox Swiss Army Knives to the list. While there are some expensive models, the basic tool (and my personal favorite) is the Recruit, which can be found for under $20 almost everywhere and features the most commonly needed implements - large and small blades, a can opener, a bottle opener and two screwdrivers. I've carried one of these for over 30 years in many different places on this planet and its never let me down.

I love my Mora knives! I beat them up so badly and they always come back as nice as you please. My favorite is my Clipper #2! Great little knife!

I purchased all of theses knives used at work from our pre owned knife case. In all cases I paid way less then half of what the knife cost new and in many cases the knives were NIB that people traded in. :cool:

I bought this knife from my brother a while back. I dont know to much about this knife, but It was well worth the $10. I found one on ebay selling for $350, so I think I got a pretty good deal.:)

I have a Buck 110 folder my Dad bought me when I was 10 years old. I have used it to gut and skin more deer and other animals than I can count, cutting through rib cages, joints etc. 33 years of guttin, whittlin and skinnin. I have never had to do anything more than touch up the edge with a hard arkansas stone or recently a fine diamond stone.

Buck Model 500 Duke

The inlaws sent me their "old" camping knife. It is just like the one below minus the box, sheath & paper work. Based on the link below I am guessing it is from the early 1970's.
