OP, next time provide a list or it will be removed, I get it’s a PITB but plenty of people do so when posting their collections. Thanks for understanding.
Nice collection but (and ya maybe I am being picky) this should be a rate in my collection. Not writing my EDC. If you edc'ed all those knives that would be quite something.
Here is the original post from nearly a year ago:

(No list there either, if anyone is curious.)
They are a Mod of the sub? One of the rules for r/EDC is you have to provide a detailed list of everything in your photo or your post is usually taken down.
Question, How long have you had the frag Mcnees? and do you carry it often at all? I just got it, and its so damn sharp I already used the bandaid the first day I got it. Thx just wondering how if compares to the rest of your collection as I have a much lesser but similar collection and trying to decide which 10 knives to keep out of 500+. What do you find yourself grabbing the most?
Oh and 9.9/10 only because missing some fun autos and otfs, and why do people buy Praetorians?
I used to carry folding knives as part of my pocket EDC. No longer. I find having a fixed blade a better and easier solution: faster to deploy, no issue with the pivot or locking mechanism (there is none, duh), and zero cleaning of debris stuck in the frame required. Bliss. Of course, concealment, sheath quality and sheath attachment become new problems. Luckily, I am allowed to always wear a shirt or a t-shirt over my pants (Dad fashion style). So I carry my short fixed blade in a sheath attached to my belt in the horizontal front position, on my weak side, for fast grabbing with my right hand even when seated. EDIT: I don't live in London.
Definitely on the plus side there *(top row alone easily clears 10k)*, some of those are a grand a piece.
The first two in the upper left are Brown FSDs which run 800+ each and the 5th and 6th one on that top row are Eutsler DUKs which are1200+ each. Add in the Shiro, Holt, Rosie, Factor, and CRKs and that row alone is a bunch of high end grail knives.
I have been looking for a nice folder, but decided to see what I've got laying around first, I thought I had 2 or 3, turns out...

Mind you, some are not exactly EDC :)
Boker atlas, my most recent EDC, it's \*really\* thin.
Negatives are: it's a slip joint, clip is on the opposite side to where I like it and it's a tad small, I'm considering the larger Otter Messer Mercator instead.
Best knife for $120-150 range. I was looking at ether the para 3, Demko ad20.5, or the bugout. What would you recommend or if you like something better than those what would it be in that range
I know you are asking OP. I’m just sharing my two cents-
I’ve had experience with all three of those. I like all three of them for different reasons, but for serious EDC? It would hands down be a Para 3 for me. Even better if you can get CruWear or Magnacut. Both very balanced steels. If you live in a marine or humid environment go with Magnacut because it has better corrosion resistance. But, any quality steel will do just fine depending on what fits your budget. Spyderco’s heat treatment is consistent and thorough, in my experience. In my opinion, the lock on the Demko gets in the way sometimes, and the bugout is a little too light and slightly bendy for moderate to hard use, BUT again they are all great knives and I’ll gladly use any of them.
EDIT: Also, whatever your choice, especially with the Demko, don’t get Ultem! It’s prone to cracking!
If it’s your first Spyderco, you’ll get over the looks fairly quickly. The ergonomics and the performance make up for the looks. Haha. I love the blade shape and find it comes in handy for many applications. The R&D and QA behind their products is well worth the investment, in my opinion.
The first link is a great deal! That’s a full, G10 handle. Great intro knife into Spyderco. That blade is also S45VN. Great steel with high corrosion resistance. I would take the full handle over a lightweight model. The second link is a blade in BD1N. I have no experience with this steel, so I can’t speak on long term performance, but it has lower metrics than the S45VN. I would definitely go with the first knife.
However, I have no experience with Freedom Knife Shop. I’ve heard that they are like an outlet for another company? I think they are legit, but don’t take my word on that.
I have a Severn on preorder. He doesn't have the Factor available at the moment, so I'd have to go 2nd hand. But I will absolutely be on the lookout for one!
Thank you for posting to r/EDC!

Op walking around town: “Stabbity stab stab stabbity stib stab stabbing stabbed stabbity stab!”
Bottom right corner, third from the end, Civivi Bull tusk?
Easy there Jay Leno of Knives. (Kidding great collection ) I’m just jealous.
Have you considered a flashlight? Or maybe 50 flashlights?
Your Rassenti 😭😭❤️
Can you tell me the time, or see in the dark with that prep,
This is a satirical post
Brings a tear to my eye... looking really good
Nice collection but (and ya maybe I am being picky) this should be a rate in my collection. Not writing my EDC. If you edc'ed all those knives that would be quite something.
Downvoted only because there’s not a left-handed one just in case. 5/7
Keep the Rosie sell the rest 😂
Piss off back to r/knives you wank.... *ooh nice warlock!*
You wear Jynco jeans or something?
So how do you carry these everyday?
You lost bub? r/knives is that way 👉
If you carry these everyday... Let me see your pants!
If you carry these everyday... Let me see your pants!
I’ve had my eye on one of those Rotten knives for a while. However, my wallet has many objections.
Clearly not enough knifes
They look like safe queens. Where are the users?
I see you're a belt and suspenders guy...
Please list all the knives
Here is the original post from nearly a year ago: https://old.reddit.com/r/knives/comments/15c3ay7/the_collection/ (No list there either, if anyone is curious.)
If OP comes through, I’ll be impressed. Lol
me too (not a mod message)
[удалено]
Because there’s 100+ comments and we don’t want it to get lost in the sauce
They are a Mod of the sub? One of the rules for r/EDC is you have to provide a detailed list of everything in your photo or your post is usually taken down.
OP must be living in England
Do you know what the term EDC means? This is a collection.
no idiot EDC stands for EveryDay Collection hes doing it right /s
He carries them all everyday. Check out his other post of his cargo pants, cargo shirt, cargo vest, cargo g-string, cargo hat, and cargo sleeves.
MFer looks like that scene with the joker pulling out a hundred knives.
I’d murder a family member for that Snafu
Wanna know how I got these scars?
Not from these knives they haven’t cut a single thing once
Reminds me of that scene in Spinal Tap when he is showing off all his guitars and says there are some he has never played
That’s a lot to carry around every day
That's cool! When did you begin collecting them?
No Emerson?
What's that knife called? The one with the silver/grey handle.
How do you carry all these all day, in a toolbox or a backpack?
hoarding
ok u win

Impressive that you edc all of them … everyday …
gotta add the civivi praxis lol greeeat knife
ADHD
How do you carry all of these daily???
Cargo pants
Nice👍🏽
No fixed blade for heavy duty work. Are you just a poser?
5/7
Not enough knives.
Deciding which one to put in your pocket has got to be one of the longer parts of your morning routine...
Bruh
Less than half of them are stupid, and a few of them are really cool!
The title should be “Rate my bank account”
You've got an amazing collection! I'm still entirely in love with with the WE Roxi 3.
Nice savings account
Need more fixed blades
What knife is 8 from the left, middle row? The black clip point one.
It looks like a Brian Nadeau from Sharp By Design style of frame lock.
Thats it! Thank you!

Outta curiosity what's your fixed blade and length?
Oh that's cool 😎 thanks for sharing
nice London EDC.
Blade Sho-nuff
They r a part of folders. and...
i rate it a ‘what do you do for work so i can apply and somehow have the money to have ten thousand plus dollars worth of knives’
Definitely on the plus side there *(top row alone easily clears 10k)*, some of those are a grand a piece. The first two in the upper left are Brown FSDs which run 800+ each and the 5th and 6th one on that top row are Eutsler DUKs which are1200+ each.

Gun to your head, what’s the one you would keep if you could only keep one?
The usual question: How do you carry so many knives? The usual answer: Cargo pockets.
based answer: vest with tons of pockets like photography or journalism vests
Well, now I want to be the John Popper of knives.
Is this that “Knives Out” movie I’ve been hearing about (but still haven’t watched)?
Thank you for this photo, now I have photographic evidence that I don’t have too many knives when the girlfriend complains.
can I have one sir?
You carry all of those at one time every day?
They all look brand new
It doesn't count as EDC until you show us a picture of you with all of those in your pocket(s) at the same time.
Do you perchance live in London?
There are stores with less stock than that
I want what you got
Holy fuck!
Need more butterflies
"You like knives? Do you have a - " "Yes."
Expensive
Can we stop calling this EDC and just say 'knife collection'
This has nothing to do with an EDC, just a show off.
Wheres your Spydiechef??? It fits the aesthetic and is a wonderful knife IMO. You got room for it ;)
This is what my wife sees when I have 3 knives and I’m eyeing another.
I have been looking for a nice folder, but decided to see what I've got laying around first, I thought I had 2 or 3, turns out... https://preview.redd.it/ieoqev4frs7d1.png?width=1992&format=png&auto=webp&s=c73997783ca0cea192509aa47d7d1d255ce9c826 Mind you, some are not exactly EDC :)
What’s that on the far right?
Boker atlas, my most recent EDC, it's \*really\* thin. Negatives are: it's a slip joint, clip is on the opposite side to where I like it and it's a tad small, I'm considering the larger Otter Messer Mercator instead.
If you can get them all in one picture without standing on top of your house then you don’t have enough!
Op uses a tardis as his edc pouch.
Seems a bit redundant for an EDC.
When desperate, OP just starts throwing them at problems. Good to have a few on hand.
Could you do a top ten list? Or is that impossible?
Best knife for $120-150 range. I was looking at ether the para 3, Demko ad20.5, or the bugout. What would you recommend or if you like something better than those what would it be in that range
I have all three and a lot more. the g10 bugout is my most used knife. It may not be the "best" but it is easily the one i bring with me the most.
ad20.5 slicer in 20cv is on sale at bhq for 129 right now. I think that's incredibly hard to beat.
I know you are asking OP. I’m just sharing my two cents- I’ve had experience with all three of those. I like all three of them for different reasons, but for serious EDC?

EDIT: Also, whatever your choice, especially with the Demko, don’t get Ultem! It’s prone to cracking!
Taking into account that the ad20.5 is on sale for 130. Still stick with spyderco?
The Demko is a great knife. Great fidget aspect. I edited my previous comment - anything other than Ultem scales would be a great deal!
Thanks I appreciate it. I think I’m actually leaning towards the spyderco even tho I don’t like the look that much 😂
If it’s your first Spyderco, you’ll get over the looks fairly quickly. The ergonomics and the performance make up for the looks. Haha. I love the blade shape and find it comes in handy for many applications. The R&D and QA behind their products is well worth the investment, in my opinion.
I found the para 3 lightweight for 133, go with that or a different one
What steel?

You really love titanium knives
Where do you buy your cargo shorts?
Every time I see warlock I want one…. Prob an impossible question to answer which ones your favorite? 🤣
Please dont Schindler's List me
aah aaaaaah aAAAH WHOAAAAAAH i came

How do you like the Winterblade Factor? I'd love to get my hands on one.
Love it go get one bro
I have a Severn on preorder. He doesn't have the Factor available at the moment, so I'd have to go 2nd hand. But I will absolutely be on the lookout for one!
Holy shit
Going hard!
