i am particularly fond of the original nepaleze kurkri knives, they provide a very powerful swing.

Not having a khukri, I figure that my Cold Steel SRK will fill the function okay. A Camillus double edged boot knife is my oh sh!t knife.

Crain LS1 or LSX knife. I also like my Cold Steel Bowie and the Gerber MkII boot knife.

Only knife fight I’ve been in was with a large goose; and even though you ‘know’ a goose isn’t going to kill you, a goose attack makes for some unsettling moments for a 13-14 year old kid. Used the sheath knife I almost always carried when on the farm, don’t recall the brand; typical 6” or so straight blade, fake stag handle, tan leather sheath, bought at the hardware store in town.

I don’t have any dedicated ‘fighting knives’, but several I have would work fine, and I always carry a good knife when in the woods. Buck 119, Cold Steel Tanto, Gerber skinning knife with guthook, even a couple cheaper Spec Plus sheath knives. They’ve all worked fine for me, but as tools; not weapons.

I carry a pocketknife most all the time, but it’s not much of a weapon, just a handy little tool. The gun should handle any ‘fighting knife’ needs I have.

Amen to that!

I wear a SRK on my harness, a Tanto Voyager in my pocket as a utity knife, and have been known to wear a culloden around my neck as a holdout for PT/ Streetwear. I dont want to be cut again(Never bad, just painful), but realize that a knife will spook the sheeple just as bad as a pistol in some circles. I like the culloden, but should have got the 5" before they ran out. makes a nice little security blanket.

I prefer the Colt 1911 although the Gerber MK2 will do in a pinch. No way I'm going to get in a knife fight if I can help it.

My favorite fighting knife is one that will cut WIDE, DEEP AND OFTEN ...
