You can get along with some really basic stuff. I have and use many custom knives, but almost always, they are knives I or my father made. My mother-in-law bought me a couple of higher-end Henckels kitchen knives for my birthday one year. I looked at all the customized production knives in my knife block and all the customs sitting in there with them, and couldn't imagine using a knife that cost that much to cut a salad. So they sat in a drawer, in their original package, for over a year. But then, I realized just how much that big knife my dad gave my wife was really worth, and got the Henckels out, and now I really like them and use them a lot, too. But the last knife I got out of the block was a big old Ontario slicer that I inherited from my grandmother.
Right now, I have a yaller handled Case penknife in one pocket, an SAK Soldier on my belt, and a Spyderco clipped to my back pocket. I think I'll break out a custom when I get home, and carry it for a while.
Variety can be a good thing.
