£100 is a bit of a psychological barrier too , it's the point at which things change to "am I really wacking the beejesus out of that when it cost over a hundred quid!

I have never spent a hundred quid on a knife before , £60 is my record up to know which was a Ka bar USMC fighting knife(a while ago)...that's a collector until such time as its needed same with the s/f daggers ,2nd and 3rd versions.

One of the nicest blades I ever owned was a gift from my friend John in Kansas, he was not impressed with the SAK Forester I was carrying at the time, so when day i got a little package from him for my birtday, it was a Buck 110 folder, very nice but rather heavy knife, i used it for years, John EDCed a Buck 112.

Charles the knife i'm retiring is made by Camiĺlus, it's an early 70's Jet pilot survival knife that I bought in the early 80's for £10 , I thought I was getting a moody ka bar marine fighting knife just reduced in size slightly , used for many many years , carried in the poachers pocket of the 68 pattern smock on all exercises/deployments
