Gun to Knife Ratio

[Destructo6]

I really only have one knife, the one I carry 24/7, not counting the 3 bayonets now on web gear. It does pretty much all I need it to do, so I see little need for another.

 

[clipse]

My wife has more knives than I do.

 

[Hkmp5sd]

Guns:Knives

15:1

 

[Deepdiver]

Prolly 2:1 (only counting "fun" knives, of course)

 

[Ian]

2.75:1, counting bayonets but not swords.

 

[jacketch]

Mine is a ratio of 1 to 3.357 guns to knives.

For math wizards how many would that be? (in double digits)

 

[Brian Dale]

Excluding the kitchen, my ratio factors down to about:

3:2:2 = guns to knives to axes.
I like axes.

jacketch, is it 14 guns and 47 knives?

{edited to add: and Schuey2002 (below), I am seriously low on flashlights I'd better get on it.}

 

[Schuey2002]

It's probably a 2:1 ratio..

Now if you asked about a "Flashlight to Gun Ratio", then it would be more like 1:1..

Right on Happy Bob

 

[Jim March]

Got two fighting folders, one fighting fixed blade *knife*, a 21" Khuk closer to shortsword class, and one battle-grade Katana.

Three handguns, the biggest a 38snub. Another to be added soon (FINALLY!)

 

[BerettaNut92]

Guns to flashlights, 2:1 for me

 

[Futo Inu]

1.5 to 1 (guns to knives)

 

[winstonsmith]

0:10 or so .. unless you count airsoft

 

[MikeK]

Approximately 1.4:1 guns to knives. Obviously I need more knives.

 

[Smiley]

I have a close friend of the family who once told me that he had an insurance appraiser come to his house to insure his knife collection. The insurance appraiser left without a clue as to what to tell my friend his 1,500 knives were worth, or how to insure them. 1,500

 

[jar]

tough but probably 5-10 knives per gun.

 

[thebaldguy]

3:1 knives to firearms. Lots of flashlights, too.

 

[SteelyDan]

Not counting anything in the kitchen, or anything worth less than $20, my gun to knife ratio is probably 1:4 or 1:5, and I'm not really hurting for guns, either. Just went on a knife bender a while back.

 

[geegee]

I've paired down the number of knives this past year, and upped the quality. I probably have a 2:1 ratio of knives to guns.

And BTW, since I just noticed Mr Fennell checked in...

I'm NOT gonna count all those knives up......

I have a question: where's that BK&T 11?!! I'd like to increase my knife side of the equation, ya know? geegee

 

[rayra]

Counting Bayonets?
Close to 1:1, all edged items included.

 

[Flashpoint]

KNIFES

SOG-1
CRKT-1
Case-2
Cutco-1 (hunting knife)
Buck-1
Schrade-1


GUNS

Stevens 20 gauge-1
Marlin .22-1
Steyr M40-1
Sig Sauer p239-1

I guess that would be 4:7

 

[Ryder]

~ 6 knives per bang bang.

 

[duckfoot]

5 guns:1 knives

 

[repsychler]

I'd say 3 guns for every knife that I carry/use regularly.
