My grandfather and I were very close and I plan on keeping these and displaying them. These knives look absolutely beautiful and I was wondering if this sub could help me find more information on them? I have the sheaths as well.

Edit: thanks SO much for all the advice, resources, people to reach out to, and appreciation for how wonderful my grandfather was ❤️. I have ordered fleece cases for the knives, and found 15 Randall knives in total after counting. I will definitely be reaching out to learn even more.

I’m working in the ER and had a patient come in with this knife tip broken off in their leg. It’s uh.. quite distinctive. Despite my best efforts with google I can’t find anything close. I’m hoping the knife sleuths here can do better than I.

For me it’s folders, then Nods. Before that, I was into draining my bank account by working on classic cars. Compared to that, folders and Nods is pocket change.

Spyderco is an excellent brand, but what is your favorite model that they make?

Cant say I have ever seen a knife like this being used before

Going through my grandpas old knife collection (he was a Philly cop and would confiscate knives from kids

I’m pretty sure I’ve lost my mind. When I bought my first “expensive” knife I expected that to be a one time deal. It was not.

Today I went with the Buck 112 Slim Heritage

Benchmade Saddle Mountain Skinner. He will use it primarily for fishing and medium to large game birds at first but I expect him to move on to deer / moose at some point. Was trying to find a "one size fits all" skinning and gutting knife. How did I do and what would be your choice?

I’ve had this knife for only a couple months and I had just cleaned off the rust from me sweating and it’s back. Paid $60 damn dollars for this thing. Need a good pocket knife that will hold up under $80.

Hi fellow Redditors, my husband inherited a knife collection. We are not sure what to do with it and I thought you might be able to give me ideas and/or point out any particularly valuable knives that we might want to look into selling separately from a collection. Note: if cases are not shown, then he did not have them or threw them away. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Thank you all for your help! We are going to use a company to sell the ones with value. If there are any they do not want to take, I'll get ahold of those of you that were asking about purchasing any.

I recently got rid of several knives from my spyderco collection. Fast forward a few weeks and the gentleman that took them off my hands reaches out to let me know that spyderco informed him that one he sent in for warranty coverage was a fake. He sent me a Pic of the letter he recieved and gave me permission to forward it in my quest to find the truth.

​

I've heard of people getting these same letters from spyderco and I believe he's a stand-up guy, but I'm still in utter disbelief of the situation as I purchased this knife from Knife Center. To my knowledge, they have been one of the most reputable web dealers for a long time.

​

I can't do much about this until after the weekend, so has this ever happened to anyone here? Any sketchy dealings with knife center or recieving fakes from dealers like them?

*Edit: the knife is a Spyderco Native Chief bought in May of 2025, in case others have one like it in question

**2nd Edit: r/spyderco won't allow this post, so I crossposted in r/spydercocommunity the same time I posted here and its all crickets there

I am assuming he took it off a dead russian

So long story short, I inherited these knives. All I know about them is they are expensive (based on the William Henry website) and I don’t really know what to do with them as I don’t know anything about knives. Any clues what I should do with them?

I love the benchmade Adira Magnacut, especially the water series version thats blue with orange accents. My main concern is if the knifes steel is capable and if its a good knife that can take a beating. Its not like i will neglect it but it needs to be tough.
Any info is appreciated!

A general comment/question...... Do most folks actually EDC multiple knives at the same time? Really? If so, for what purpose? Just because you can or what? I see posts all the time with 2-3 knives in a photo stating that they are 'today's carry'. Makes no sense to this ole guy......😵‍💫
