Re: What was your first knife?
my first knife was a good old swiss army knife carried that religiously from about 2nd -4th grade lost it along the way and started carrying a Leatherman multi tool for awhile lost that too while fishing.Then in middle school and stared carrying singleblade thumbstud folders thats right around the time when i started to get interested in collecting knives.The collecting carried on until high school when i stared picking up anything with an edge on it including my first switchblade then i really became a knife junkie .Pretty much carried a knife in my pocket since i was in elementary school probably why if i forget my knife at home if feel like a forgot my pants

Re: What was your first knife?
first knife was actually a cheap lil daggar that i got from a festival in town. behind my parents back.... i kinda miss it now. my mom took it away because i wasnt supposed to have a knife til i was 11 or 13? but, on my b-day my dad gave me his old knife from boy scouts a hobo knife with the fork n spoon n everything sept the kitchen sink in the middle. i still have that knife. my mom gave the one back that i bought on my own when i was 14-15... i traded it for a way more expensive folder i think it was camillus 3 blade or somthing... i came out way ahead on the trade! lol
Re: What was your first knife?
addendum- Vagrant said it only counts if it was an EDC, my first EDC was around the same time, Cheapo Balisong Red handles with the holes in it.... older kid took it away from me... i should've told my mom about it immediatly (she'd've kicked his @$$).

Re: What was your first knife?
My first switchblade was a beautiful AB 11inch with black horn. Had some fairly big liner gaps and some blade play. It was the first time I ever bought one. It came in the mail and for the first time in my life I finally held on to a genuine Italian switch. When I pressed the button and that blade fired open I was instantly hooked. Such butter smooth action on that AB. Not like my Frank B picklock though. That’s on another level.

My first switchblade was an OTF model #860 from The Edge Company.
Re: What was your first knife?
I bought my first in knife when I was about five years old in 1958. Bazooka bubblegum had an offer for a folder. I mailed my $.10 cents to Bazooka and when it arrived I couldn’t have been happier. It was a single blade blue plastic scales. It’s long gone I have no idea when I lost it. That was 60 years ago. My mom was way wicked cool; she let me keep it. It was my EDC. She keep a small knife in her handbag. My dad always had a knife in his pocket.

my mom's boyfriend gave me a heavy chrome butterfly knife when I was about 13... that was the start for me.

Hello Guys
This week I found a new knife FH81 from Ganzo on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/stores/node/1615 ... ageIndex=2, it has a reptilian design.
I hadn`t seen it before in Ganzo series, that`s why I ordered it and it`s fantastic

Re: What was your first knife?
This question has been asked many times and here is my answer.
When I was five or six years old I purchased my first folder. Back then kids could wander the streets without the fear of being kidnapped. My friends and I went to the corner store and bought Bazooka bubblegum. For a penny you got a big piece of bubblegum and a comic. Along with the comic was an ad for a small pocket knife, only $.10 cents. With the help of my mom I sent in my $.10 cents in cash and I don’t know how many days later or weeks my knife arrived. I was so excited. It’s long gone but I’ll never forget it.

Re: What was your first knife?
What does this have to do with your first knife? It has always been obvious you are a shill for Ganzo knives and probably just trying to advertise your Amazon store. Why not just come out and say it?Jayronife wrote: ↑Fri Jun 04, 2021 6:03 am Hello Guys

PS- I will save Sammy the time and just post his usual reply to you that he also likes Ganzo knives...lol
