Cool, Master at arms at scouting. Maybe I should start training my group, too.

Last year I was going on holiday, so I had to go to the airport. I guessed it would be unwise to carry a knife through the metal detector, so I put it in my hand luggage, shoved the bag through the x-ray machine and picked it up afterwards. Immediately after the metal detector I picked up the knife ...

Nieto.
It's Spanish and it's supposed to be pretty good quality.
I paid about $25 for a folder, 440C steel.
It sucked. It lasted for about 6 months, then the lock quit owrking. I still don't know if it was beacuase of crappy materials or stupidity of one of my co-workers, but I really don't want ...

Great knife, a bit expensive though....
I paid about $84 for a Calypso Jr. with the micarta handle.
In the Netherlands, that's a lot of money for a knife.
But on the other hand, it's great quality and it looks absolutely stunning. Now I want more......

Overhere in the Netherlands, people tend to get a bit nervous around weapons (edged or otherwise) and I wouldn't want my guests to get uncomfortable. It's also quite safe in my neighbourhood, so a small amount of arms would be sufficient.

I won't be using the axe primarily as a weapon, but more as ...

Thanks for the tips.

I'm a knife / bayonet collector, so I already have some edged weapons at my home. The lower floor is basically divided in:
-Kitchen; plain kitchen knives
-Living room; Machette and a Nieto backlock folder (for opening mail)
-Hallway; nothing

Upstairs:

Bought myself a black micarta Calypso Jr last saturday. It's divine. However, what do you guys prefer, a plain edge or a serrated edge?
