    If knife fans would be honest, there are very few of us that really need to carry a large blade. Smaller traditional pocket knives will meet the daily needs of almost all of us. My traditionals are a lot like my children - I don’t have a favorite, and love them all equally. I will often stand at my knife drawer and spend 5 minutes picking up different knives trying to decide which one I want to carry for the day!

    I always carry a small traditional in my left pocket, and a larger folder clipped in my right pocket. The traditional is my backup for splinters and such

    That is a very nice collection. I have a few Rough Rider knives, and I can't find anything wrong with them. I use them a lot and if I loose one in the hay-field, it won't be the end of the world.I have a few vintage knives I picked up in junk shops also, they are good knives.

    I'm happy to see so many likes on this video Paddy! Great job in introducing some of your viewers that may not be inclined to "pick up a few" inexpensive traditionals, the joys of carrying/using them as a secondary option. Your passion was contagious.
    Of course you know I would enjoy everything on that table (well, except that cool TEW quill pen, Since I have carried & used one just like it on & off for the past year & a half, such a joy to use)

    Awesome video Paddy. Beautiful little collection of slippies. Us in the knife community seem to forget that many generations before us didn’t have the luxury of one handed opening/closing, locking knives made of titanium, carbon fiber, G10, etc. What they had were two handed slippies with just basic steel and they got by just fine because they simply worked. And people back then relied on their knives for a whole lot more than opening up mail or cutting a string. They needed them to do things that were absolutely essential for their livelihood and sometimes, their life. We get caught up in the latest greatest framelock flippers, which are great, but we often confuse need with want. I like carrying a traditional as my own kinda personal ode to tradition and history. Traditionals have been around a long long time because they are great tools and because of that they’ll continue to be made and used for many generations to come. Ok, imma hop off my soapbox now. Haha. Thanks for the thought provoking video Paddy. Stay safe brother. 👍🤘

      Excellent point Matthew. My view is simply this. If a Barlow was good enough for George Washington; if it was good enough for Abraham Lincoln (although he died with a Congress in his pocket), and good enough for the (fictional) Tom Sawyer, it is good enough for me.
      Incidentally, there is a lovely story about Lincoln's Barlow. The story he told was this (and may be, as Dickens would put it, a bit of a 'stretcher.'). His story goes as follows. One day, as a young man, he was walking down the road when he was suddenly stopped by a pedestrian coming the other way.
      "Sir," said the passerby, "I simply have to give you something."
      "Why so?" said Lincoln.
      "Well, my village presented me with this Barlow knife" said the passing stranger. "They said that it was my prize for being the ugliest man in the village. But they said that if I was ever to meet anybody as plum ugly as me, or better still, even uglier, that I was to present him with this knife. So I would like you to have this prized Barlow of mine."
      "Well that's mighty kind of you sir," said Abraham Lincoln, graciously accepting the gift of the knife.
      Of course, it might also explain why I have so many Barlow knives.

    I started collecting knives a few years ago with Ka-Bar and Victorinox for my emergency kits. Buck knives just for collecting. A bunch of Bushcraft knives. Then Ganzo and Kubey and finally with Rough Ryder and Frost. Downhill all the way price wise.
    But the only ones I play around with are the Rough Ryders. I bought about 50 this year from a seller on Amazon in the USA from Canada and they all came with fingerprints on the blades. So I assume he checks them first because only one had a weak back spring. All the others were really nice. I got almost the whole stagbone collection and some others. I emailed SMKW and next day they sent out a new one to me here in Canada. However I have enough knives for now. Going to stop, except for the three in the mail. I bought many RR's at once before this government changes it's import laws again. Spyderco PM2 and similar knives are illegal to import for individuals.
    However I carry only one knife out of about 200 that I have. A Gerber Swagger half serrated. It's my first knife and I will never change. I'm a 70+ year old cyclist summer/winter so serrations are needed to cut plastic ties etc when carrying loads. I spent 40+ years doing carpentry and wood working and never used a pocket knife only disposable Xacto blades. No time to sharpen knives. Rush business.

    So many people want fancy, tactical, "designer" EDC's, when a good "Old Fashioned" pocket knife is a fraction of the price and has been tried and tested for decades if not centuries from schoolboys to vicars, in the late 1960's as a schoolboy I took a pocket-knife / pen-knife to school to sharpen pencils, and the teachers accepted it, happy days and not a snivelling WOKE in sight.

I've carried a pocket knife for over 15 years never been stopped or searched by the police but when am out in public and need to use my knife to do a task (which is mostly opening kids toys ha) I feel people would be less scared of a little read knife or traditional looking knife then a one handed opening spyderco I have a few UKPK and one handed none locking knives but I feel more comfortable pulling out a little case it doesn't really get heads turning and if someone does see it they don't seem shocked or have that look of fear in there eyes lol thats just me tho

My father carried one of two slip joints every day. He had a daily "work" knife (eventually with half a scale broken off) and a "Sunday" model and he was completely happy. He's rolling in his grave at the number I have...and never carry. Oh well.
