I like the screen saver of the girl in the office. "I don't always roll a joint, but when I do, it's my ankle". That was an enjoyable video. I love the stories that go along with the knives. Everybody has one, a pocket knife and a story. So do I. About thirty years ago I lost a new folder I was carrying that had a pocket clip. I took it out to use and must have been standing in front my car at the time and then I put it back in my pocket or so I thought. I drove home from where I was about 20 miles from home. When I got home, I went to use my knife and it was gone. When I went to use my car, while approaching it from the front, I saw my new knife hanging from the front license plate frame and it was open hanging by the pocket clip just off the ground. The blade edge at the tip had a couple small chips in it from the drive home earlier, but it worked as normal. I call it my lucky knife.

My dad had a sporting goods/gun shop for 30 years (I worked there off and on in high school and through college) and my brother worked in several big box sporting goods stores for 20 years. I can tell that working at the store and having access to deals and wholesale prices is items, what we bought then is much different than what we buy now that we don’t have access to those deals. What would be very interesting is to find out what ‘experts’, who pay the same prices for their items that the public pays, carry and use.

I find it interesting to find so many differences in what people's edc knives are from state to state. It was also very interesting to see what the people running a knife store chooses to EDC in particular. With that said, I have stopped carrying folders, with the exception of my SAK Swiss Champ & SAK Work Champ XL knives, and have switched primarily to Fixed blade knives, with a drop point, Scandi/Flat grind, most of which are 0.20 "- 1/4 " thick. Living in Queens NY (ty to all of you that just went 'poor guy' as we have the strictest knife laws in the country) I am limited to what I can EDC for knives so I am hauling a 3 5/8" Boker Magnum lil Giant, TOPS Mil Spie 3,Schrade SCHF57 2.75", and my SAK Swiss Champ. When going upstate I drop the Boker for my KA-BAR BK2 Companion. BTW if you have any one of these types of videos on fixed blade knives I would be really interested in watching it. (as in plz link in a reply). For the record, I do own folders, just that their new home is in a memory storage drawer, like the Schrade Old Timer Beast, along with the Buck 110, and a variety of other Schrade knives.

[@SMKWcom]

We have several videos with fixed blades on our daily grind plat list

[@StratBurst92]

SMKW is great to buy from. some of my collection came from there. Some of my favorites that I own are all of my Microtech autos. Folders would be Benchmade as I worked 27 years in private security and always carried a griptilian. Fixed blade would be my Randall 14 attack with all the bells and whistles, Black micarta border patrol handle, stainless blade with saw teeth, nickel silver double curved hilt, and black sheath.

I have over three hundred knives, my most used and favorite is a old timer Barlow I got from you guys a couple of years ago. My most used knife in the military was a Swiss army knife with the pliars on it back in the early 90's.

That sounds like a heck of a collection!

I love this video! I was at their store a couple of years ago, and let me tell you, if you are within 200 miles of Sevierville, TN, you need to stop by. Give yourself a couple of hours to look at their inventory. Seriously, a couple of hours... Just pack a lunch and make a day of it! And take some $$ or $$$ and pick up that knife you've been wanting. Everyone is so kind and helpful! I don't know when I'll be back there but when I am I think I'll apply for a job!

Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

Since 2008, I have carried my Black Benchmade 5000 Mel Pardue Presidio Automatic. And recently added a ThruNite EDC Flashlight Archer Pro.

Mel Pardue designed some awesome knives!

My mom lives 10 minutes away from there. Rainy days we’ll spend 2 or 3 hours in there. My favorites are the artifacts room and the whole bottom floor is kitchen stuff.

I absolutey love that they arent just caring the same super popular knives that everyone wears. Love seeing those Ganzos, Rough Ryders, and Benchmarks.

Great video..! I loved seeing what everybody was carrying - this would be a very good regular “series” of videos. Today I’m carrying a Spyderco Para 3 LW and a Sage 5 LW. I love them both.

[@SMKWcom]

That's awesome!

[@gerardmartyn1738]

I always say " I only admit to three. ". A SAK, a Buck, and a Mora. Great video, thank you 😊

[@SMKWcom]

That is a great way to say that lol

[@KellyRobinette]

This was cool! I’m currently carrying a Victorinox climber with glow in the dark scales, green Gerber Dime, and a Leatherman Skeletool.
