For a daily I have a Craftsman folder that uses box cutter blades. It's awesome, whenever it gets dull I just put a new blade in it. I also have a Leatherman Surge multi-tool. I'm not sure if that counts as a knife but it has 3 blades in it. I love it because its like carrying my whole tool box around with me. http://www.leatherman.com/product/Surge
Anyway the real reason I chimed in is Case knives. I read that many of you collect Case XX knives and Case Cutlery was founded in my area. It started in Little Valley, New York in 1900 when Case Brothers Cutlery Company was incorporated. After a fire or two (it's been a while since my Grandpa told me the story) the company relocated to Springville, New York; my hometown. Case XX knives were made in my town until 1905 when their production was moved to Bradford, PA. My Grandpa has a good many Case XX straight razors that were made here in town and in Little Valley. Their old factory was renovated a couple years ago and is now a dance studio, offices, a gym, and a really good restaurant called Papa Jake's.
Fun fact of the day. :dancenana:

Love this thread...I'm a big knife fan. Most of my knives diappeared shortly after I had my son. He's 7 now so I can finally start building them back up. I'm a huge Puma fan and my dad actually gave me an original Bone Puma Earl still in the box for christmas this year. He carried one around for years and years so I know they're a durable knife. Now he likes the Greased Lightning and loves it but I'm not as fond of it myself. He has one knife I really want to get my hands on and that's a bone Puma Hunters Pal. He also has an originall Russel. He got me into collecting knives and I've tried to year to find him a TM Dowell Intergral Hunter to add to his collection but they're not exactly a dime a dozen. The funny thing is aside from one or two knives we don't actually use them...hahahaha. We have a guy hand make the knives we actually use for skinning and butchering.
