The bigger one in the second picture looks like the Randall's made in Florida, my husband uses his regularly, the handle is super comfortable.

Got certified in the 80s. Rambo was all the rage. Diving BFKs were a status symbol. I keep the Precise First Mate (left) in my truck in case of zombies. It weighs 3lb and will chop wood. Note the double edged Eternal model on the left. Why would anyone need a double edged knife under water? I thought I did, I guess

I have a pair of these. I like the blunt tip it's also a tool. I sometimes wear both on the inside of my calves. Can get either knife with either hand that way and If I need a knife and I drop my knife, I still need a knife. I like that they're reversible in the sheath. Yes I know that's not a knife is a sword. But I like them

That Spyderco Enuff is my dream knife, but I wouldn't bear to lose it...
The Gerber River is more than good for the use for me

I have added a lanyard to the knife and it is looped under the sheath; therefore, it is near impossible to dislodge from the sheath or drop if the lanyard is around your wrist. Treat yourself!

I would add to anyone that even after taking precautions end up losing the knife, please throw the sheath in the water as soon as you realize the knife is gone.
I keep finding knives and then have to improvise storage options. The titanium one I'm using currently I found tn the gulf of Mexico about 15 years ago ...love it!

In 50 years of diving commercially and recreationally I have never lost a piece of diving gear, knives included. I have lost a few hand tools and miscellaneous bits of hardware, but they were company owned.
