Good assisted opening pocketknife recommendations.

Thanks to all. I just pulled the TRIGGER on the sypderco Paramilitary 2. Can't wait.

[slow06]

its not assisted but its the one I carry every day. its a buck odessy. With a little practice it comes out ready to go really quick. buck doesn't make them anymore so ebay to find it. Best knife i have owned. and it holds an edge like it should.

My Dad bought me this knife (half serrated version) with a sharpening kit when I was probably 15 or so. I still have it 10 years later. Holds a decent edge but I'm terrible at sharpening serrated edges.

I finally picked up a knife a few months ago. SOG Twitch II. Almost ashamed to say it is the first pocket knife I have ever had. I am not real sure how I made it all this time without one! What all needs to be fone to maintain the blade? Recommended sharpening method?

Get a cheaper knife and learn how to use some stones...that way you dont fuck the blade on the SOG.

X2 and angle is everything.

Ive been happy with my gatco kit. Simple to use, and once you get the edge you want, its easy to keep it up with a piece of leather to strop with.

That aegis looks nice. Makes me want one.

I got this little beauty today. Very cool knife. Made by CRKT and Williams for SOCOM ops.
CRKT OTANASHI NOH KEN (silent sword)

[gat0r]

i like the CRKT Hissatsu folder
just a little smaller blade than OTANASHI mentioned above

I have a Benchmade 581S Osbourne Barrage, great knife.

Yea but to be honest I wouldn't carry ether of the CRKTs for an EDC. I can tell that it's not intended for everyday use and pretty much only a prison shank.

Love my Kershaw 1550.

[Jester]

i carry this crkt and love it!

I have a Kershaw Blackout. Great knife, but it really needs a locking mechanism. I was wearing it on my belt while hiking around up in Colorado, and it opened up on me. I could have easily been gutted.

I carry a blackout daily, started with the whirlwind (same knife basically), I've never been able to duplicate the factory edge on it. I use the gatco setup, but not nearly as sharp and doesn't hold an edge as long. That being said I use it as a tool, it cuts rope, wires, cardboard, tape, hose, basically anything I need to to do. I'm pleased with the kershaw stuff. I also have a couple other assisted kershaws, a benchmade I picked up from Buzzo, assorted other auto openers, and knives I've collected or been given over the years.
