I feel the need to buy a quality knife... what do you guys carry?

[BlackGT]

I've been rocking a Kershaw "Needs Work" for a couple years now. Hasn't let me down, takes a good edge and holds it long enough to to suit me for what I use it for.

I want to try one of the Kershaws with the "composite" (high carbon steel on edge, lower carbon steel for spine) blade, but haven't yet.

I carry a leatherman wave, a spyderco civilian and a benchmade push knife.

The leatherman is a daily work tool, the other two are for fucking things up.

Besides my gun and my knife. I always keep a Leatherman juice S2 So handy.

I do have to sharpen mine (hone, really) more often than I would if I forked over the money for one like yours, but still only about once a month or so.

You still using that small belt type sharpener? I think I'm finally going to pick one up this month.

All those shown above are really nice.

I went ahead and ordered this one:

I love the way those open.. I have a cheaper Kershaw [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Kershaw-3650-Folding-Knife-SpeedSafe/dp/B003LNP9Y0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1442006758&sr=8-1&keywords=kershaw+volt+ii"](Volt II)[/ame] I carry that opens the same way, and by far my favorite (as opposed to the thumb open knobs or holes like others use).

I flipped the clip to the other end on mine, so that when I pull it out of my pocket my index finger is in just the the right to flip the opener. FYI, if anything like mine was when new, the action is pretty tight, to the point where it was uncomfortable on my finger.. A drop of oil and opening it a bunch will smooth that out and make it much easier to open.

Lea used to get pissed at me when I got my first one because I would constantly open and close it while watching TV to get the action broken in some.

Although I carry it daily, I don't use it heavily, so the cheaper one is better for me. I mainly use it for opening boxes, cutting small items like 550 cord, and cleaning the dirt from under my fingernails. I do have to sharpen mine (hone, really) more often than I would if I forked over the money for one like yours, but still only about once a month or so.

I actually just ordered another one because I seem to have lost mine last weekend. It's somewhere in the house but after looking for it for hours, no luck. And given the price, I figured it was worth buying. Luckily they are even cheaper now than when I bought my first. The first one was like $26.. Now they are only about $17!

Best knife I've had, been an edc for a year and 0 complaints.

ZT's are amazing. Need to add one to my collection. And a Chris Reeve Sebenza.

Am I finally going to have to disable sigs because of a cow fucker?

What did I do?

Here's a replacement they sent me for the bone collector. I love it.

[wickedblkgt]

Boker, go to BladeHQ.com they are cheap. I have 2 of them and love them both.

Try not to be a fanboy too much. But with bench maid I can't help it. I do like my cold steel and my spiderco. But benchmaid is my favorite.



My Spyderco paramilitary2 awesome knife.

[Craizie]

I used to carry nothing but Spyderco's but recently I've switched over to carrying Benchmade's and in particular, the Griptilian.



I own both a full size Griptilian and a Mini Griptilian and I've put custom scales on both of them as the plastic ones really make the knife feel cheap. But they are solid knives and I really like the Axis lock on them.

And a really good knife for the money is a Spyderco Tenacious.

I don't remember the name of my Spyderco, it looks like that one but with a different locking mechanism. It's similar to the benchmade Axis without the spring assist. The blade is also a bit larger than that one. Love the hell out of it.
