Andy_Copland 0 #2 August 28, 2008 Leatherman, not really a pocket knife but it goes in my pocket and has a knife (that i've never used on anything thinking about it....)

Zep 0 #4 August 28, 2008 Without a doubt Victorinox But I also like our local (Catalan) made pocket knives as they have a good quality carbon steel blade, I feel you can never sharpen a stainless steel blade as good as you can sharpen a blade made out of carbon steel.

virgin-burner 1 #6 August 28, 2008 i'm one hell of a spyderco-nutcase. but they're practically banned over here, as they can be operated single-handed. i mean, whats a knife good for if you cant operate it single-handed. usually you need one ready when you're already busy with something else. i still have one, but i'm not carrying it anymore.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

BillyVance 34 #13 August 28, 2008 Don't really have a favorite. I used to have a few Swiss Army knives, those fat ones with 15+ tools. Nowadays, I've got this 50+ year old Craftsman 3-bladed knife sitting on the desk in front of me that was my dad's when he was younger.

doug925 0 #14 August 28, 2008 Originally, Spyderco. But now I've moved on to the Kershaw, Ken Onion automatic. I've had two now, and i love it.

porpoishead 5 #17 August 28, 2008 spyderco H1 steel tens of thousands of saltwater dives no broken back spring, no broken locks. WILL NOT RUST EVER EVEN IN SALTWATER the H1 steel is tough as all fucking hell. only thing that was able to fuck up one of mine, was an exothermic rod. i was burning 1.5" steel underwater. used the knife as a hanger chaser and accidentally put a broco rod through it. 10,000 degrees leaves a helluva mark. a cuda, buck, etc. anything else would have just melted into a puddle of shit. the H1 took a lick but i managed to grind down the blemish every diver out here in the gulf has a few of these on his/her harness there is nothing else out there that compares. the h1 spydercos are work proven time and again. they cost $65.00 or so but well worth it. get you a spyderco make sure you get the h1 steel. get 2 of em. two is one, one is none. if you want a friend feed any animal Perry Farrell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bertt 0 #24 August 28, 2008 I've got a KA-BAR. I'm not talking about the 7" blade fighting knife you see in all the catalogs. It's a 3-bladed folding knife a lot like a Schrade Old-Timer. I got it second hand, so I don't know how old it is, but it takes (and keeps) a really good edge.You don't have to outrun the bear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
