What’s the best knife?
I’m looking to get one off some website and I’d like to know your thoughts. Doesn’t matter if it’s effective at whatever, I’d just like to get a cool knife.

I have a Schrade case knife. Has a locking safety blade and is worn on your belt. Just have to be careful where you wear it. Most govt. buildings won't allow them.

Benchmade is pretty good and I got an M&P one that I really liked a while back. I’ve heard Coldsteel is pretty nice too.

Depends on what type of knife and it's intended purposes. I spent the better part of a year researching food preparation along with a set of steak knives, and bought a new set last year once they were on sale. I wanted a fairly decent set with some large blades for cutting large sections of meat. My requirements were; -Hi grade Damascus steel (real, not ones with laser gut Damascus markings) -Full tangs in the handle -Durable handle material -Not ridiculously over priced I have a couple pocket knives, but never carry anything. The one in my junk drawer is more or less a package opener.

2 RepliesEdited by One Shot Ted: 5/11/2024 11:25:10 PMMy current EDC is a [url=https://kershaw.kaiusa.com/monitor.html]Kershaw Monitor[/url]. It's fairly cheap ($70-80), light enough to carry in loose shorts pockets without worrying about a belt, it has a deep carry clip so it doesn't stick out over the edge of the pocket, and the finish is pretty nice (no scratches or damage in the 9 months that I've had it). My knives tend to get scratched and dinged up pretty quickly, so it's a nice change of pace to have one that still looks new. The biggest selling point for me, though, is the locking mechanism. Instead of the typical detent that you access from the front inside of the grip (a liner lock, as shown on [url=https://www.bladehq.com/blog/knife-lock-types-guide]this page[/url] of locking mechanisms), it has an ambidextrous locking mechanism on the sides of the handle (an axis lock, as seen on the page listed above). You just hold down the lock to move the crossbar out of place, allowing the blade to swing freely around the bearing. This means you can flick the knife open or closed in one motion without ever putting your fingers in the path of the blade.
