If you could only have 4 knives to cover all areas of the knife world ,what would they be.

1.High end,or dress folder

2.EDC or heavy use floder

For me they would be

[EarthDog]

From my current collection:
1. Spyderco JD Smith, for its elegant lines, smooth micarta finish, and light weight. Exceeeeeeeedingly sharp, out of the box.
2. CUDA Dominator
3. Anza PK4 - sharp, stout, and tough
4. Victorinox Officer Suisse, a long-time favorite.

Thoughts on the future:
1. William Henry Spearpoint with Mokume bolsters and Black Palm Scales.
2. Large Classic Sebenza.
3. Nkonka CPM-3V Integral.
4. Victorinox Officer Suisse - I've not paid much attention to slip joint knives, yet.

As I've contemplated this topic, I've noticed that I could purchase 1 - 3 of the "future" collection within my knife expenditures of the last year. Not that I regret purchasing the knives I now have.
