Custom made hunter knive from n690 60HCR steel, with stabilized chestnut handle, and Ser Jacopo.
Ive never tried the Hawks but would love to, the same goes for Marfione. The Buck 110’s are as sold as Ive found. My OTF’s are defensive/ offensive only. My old line of work had a lot of dick measuring competitions concerning toys as both the Military and Leo is notorious for creating gadget hounds. These days at home it’s Kershaw Leeks, 112’s and Doctors Knives that get the most use.
The OTF’s pair up with a handgun when leaving the house and also another gentleman's type blade in the opposite pocket for abuse.
I have a friend who owns a pretty good shop locally. PM me and I can get you some decent discounts.
Benchmade 710 McHenry&Williams in m390, and Ser Jacopo.
My daily pocket knives are my Elishewitz designed Benchmade 886 Bluestar in 154CM, (as you can see the black teflon blade coating has suffered over the years), or my Carson designed CRKT M16-13M. The pipes today are my Grabow Grand Duke, and my Jensen. 
I'm working around the house today and this Spyderco Para2 is my sidekick.
My PM2 in CruWear and Micarta, fans know it as the CruCarta. I hesitated buying a PM2 thinking it a bit big for EDC, but it rides fine. So fine that I bought another in S90V. The pipe is a Poul Hansen pot, currently filled with Old Gowrie.
For many years I bought a LOT of knives.
Benchmade, Spyderco, Bark River, CRKT, Case, Buck, Blue RIdge......
I always carried a different knife......
But, the last few years ive kept it simple. I realized I rarely need a blade, but I DID need other tools.
So now I carry either a Leatherman Charge+ TTI, or a leatherman Sidekick....depending on where im going.
I have not been without a an edc knife for 40 years.......or a edc firearm for 32 years. Don't judge, I live in a dangerous area!!

I'm impressed by what I've seen so far..
Smoking my usual to start the day -Steamworks - in the Ashton Brindle XX.
Accompanied by the Pro-Tech Rockeye in 3V.
Any folder with 3V steel gets my juices flowing. I love a tough carbon steel.
EDIT: Tomorrow is fixed blade Friday- plan accordingly. =]

I have the very same looking big Italian stiletto with bone inlays ,my late father bought it somewhere in southern Italy
Aircraft material theme for today. Benchmade 87 and Kirsten.
Well I've got quite a few knives and pipes too. I just grabbed a nice Mastro de Paja pipe that I like and put the three knives I use the most with it. I always have the little Swiss Army knife on my keychain with me as it has a very sharp blade with some other tools that are useful, but around the house I use my Sheffield lock back utility blade knife and my Opinel folding lock blade knife more than any others.
