My hunting knife is my Uncle's old BSA knife. He got it back in the early 50s when he was in the Scouts and kept it till he left for 'Nam in 67. It sat in a box for several years till my Grandfather took it out to start using it while hunting. He gave it to me about 15 years ago when he couldn't hunt anymore and I've been carrying it hunting and hiking every since. As far as I'm concerned it's priceless. For me a knife is a tool made to be used. Hanging knives on the wall is a much a waste of money as hanging a screwdriver on a wall. No offense to your friend, just my most humble opinion.
