Left to right:
Just a pocket knife
Opinel No. 9. I have a complete set of them. Locking ring locks the blade. The blade is high carbon steel that holds an razor sharp edge.
Custom made from a file. Made by a friend here in Ill.
Damascus. It was my dads. Not sure of its origin.
.62 caliber plug bayonet. The hilt has a hammer on one side and screw driver on the other. Custom made for me by a friend.
Neck knife with a quilled sheath. Sheath made by a guy I filmed with from MI.
Damascus knife made by a guy from KY. I made the sheath.
Scottish Dirk. It has wire braid in the grooves in the handle.
