Great pieces by everyone here. I only have a few pieces left from my collection. Will try and get some pics up tomorrow. I have a Beretta 3" lock blade from the late 80's that is my favorite.
It isn't really that special to look at, but it saved my life once while putting up Christmas lights at my parents place. Slipped on a wet spot (was on the roof) and slid off the edge. Had the knife in my hand and before I fell off, drove it with all my strength into the roof and hung on until my mom brought the ladder around. Only then did I see that it went through three layers of tar paper and the metal flashing under it. I had to re-tip it and there is a slight bend in the tip, but I will be buried with that knife.
