      Wranglerstar as a sailing instructor, I carry a leatherman wingman with some fishing twine around some of the holes, and that is then attached to an emergency release old lanyard clip, so it doesn't fall in the water when on the boat, but if some one is in trouble it's easily accessible.

    I've been collecting and using knives since I was a kid. Have recently acquired an Opinel, and have been using a Mora for my camp knife for a few years. This is next on my list of inexpensive quality knives. I'm not sure how Sweden, France, and New Zealand manage to make such good stuff at an affordable price, even after being imported, but I wish that American manufacturers would figure it out. I can't find a Chinese-made Kershaw branded knife for less than 30 bucks, much less 12 to 15. I'm an artist, craftsman, and outdoorsman, and I actually use my knives on a daily basis. I'm not taking a $100 knife on a kayak trip only to give it away to the fishes.

    • @TheOfficialCaseMade
      @TheOfficialCaseMade 2 года назад +2

      I fell down the rabbit hole; I started looking at Ganzo, for a cheap, high quality pocket folder, ended up picking up a Mora and falling in love with it. I wanted a folding Mora, turns out the French have me covered. Now I'm looking at Opinel, MAM, Svord, even a Victorinox to round out the group.

    Cody, so glad you found your favorite pocket knife. I can relate, I am a spyderco fan personally, and for a time, I had misplaced my original endura 4, with VG10 blade. Even though I have since upgraded to a "super steel" zdp189 version for EDC, misplacing my original was painful. Luckily, as with you, I eventually found it... or more to the point, went back to my remote cottage where I suspected I had left it. I would like to offer a personal opinion if you don't mind... I know the last time you lost your benchmade, you went through numerous knives, trying to find a suitable replacement. In the end, you settled back to what you know, love and have come to rely on... I am not telling you what to do, but I would suggest there are certain things in life that we just can not replace... for me, it is having a spyderco in my pocket, ready to go at a moments notice... for you, I believe, your benchmade 940 is the same. Thankfully you do not have to replace it this time, but if you ever do, for what ever reason, my advice would be to just go ahead and do what you know is going to make you happy. Just a thought from a fan...

      I got my first buck 110 when I was around 15. I still have a 110 that I carry in my truck. I've gone through probably 2 -110's, the one I have now is the one I bought my dad when I was around 23 I'm now 57. Its still a good knife and at that time it was around $27 early 80 late seventies. I did move on to a buck 112 easier to carry in the pocket. Now I have a Leatherman charge that I just can't part with.

    As a paramedic I carry two things, I have my Raptors (don't @ me, damn things are amazing and have lasted me nearly 6 years without issue) and my Harbor Freight folder. I would love to see you review those, as the handle feels like real G10 and the blade from the package is incredible, holds an insane edge and to date has cut 20+ sets of seatbelts. I will definitely check out the SVORD, even if it is to take on a woodwork project to make a pretty handle for it.

    Opinels are also super affordable and offer a pretty cool “old school” design. They don’t quite qualify for a one hand open but they do have a locking mechanism. For around $10 you can’t go wrong!

They are beautiful and have the same friction hold as the Svord knives. Hope this helps haha. God bless -Kyle

    Cody, that's not how you one hand open them easy.
    Put the bit with the hole in the middle of your palm with the blade facing you and pointing upwards. Slide the handle away from you and down.. you will figure it out the movements from there. Means you can grab from pocket and open in one easy swift movement... Also keeps the blade facing away from you.
    Great knife. I own the same knife in the same colour... just so i don't lose it!

I have a wooden handle for mine and it’s fine for me but not sure I’d main a wooden one as a edc or a fishing knife or something. Mines just a beater

    I learned pretty quick to get knives with bright color scales. Drop a black knife in the woods and say goodbye. Drop a bright red or yellow one and your chances of recovery are much higher. It's also to sight easier in low light and down in a pack or what-not. One that can be found with an ultraviolet light at night is also a plus.

      I have one, the plastic of the handle isn't slippery, it gives a little resistance to opening along with tightness from adjusting the 2 screws. It won't open by accident. I put a string on the hole in the "lever" and leave it hanging out of the pocket to grab, then push the lever against my leg to open. The blade seems more robust than the opinel, which I have with a screw on thumb stud installed on it.

I'm on a farmstead so when i go outside i just throw it in my leg pocket, doesn't seem to get in the way too much. I'm funny with things, once i find something i like, i tend to stick to it. Peasant mini in blue next, then possibly a large and small in wood trim with the belt pouches as a birthday treat. Svord do some wicked looking fixed blades and if they hold up anything like these folders do, then i may look at them as well. One of my favourite ever knives is my mora companion (without the fancy firelighter built in).... simple, sturdy, cost nothing to buy, and keeps a nice workable edge to it.

    My son bought me a zero tolerance hinderer knife for my birthday last year. I had been covering that knife for a year. Within a week I had lost it. I was heart broken. We would walk to a shopping center for lunch that was on the other side of some railroad tracks every day. To get there we had to cut through some brush and a hole in the fence to cross the tracks. So. A week later I decided to bring a machete to clear the brush so we wouldn’t get wet from the over hanging leaves. While I was hacking away at the the Brush my friend spotted a knife hanging from a vine right next to the fence opening. Lol. I was so happy. I found my knife dangling there. So I got pick pocketed by a flowering vine. You are right about those pocket clips. My retribution on that vine was swift. The machete raised some eye brows from the waitress though. 😊

    I just got one of these and, when you take it apart, there is a second pair of holes for the brass stop pin. This allows you to move the pin so that the tang/opening lever will be completely hidden inside the handle when fully opened. This would eliminate a hotspot when you use the knife for a long time.

I got a Buck Knives 110 folding knife back in 1963 when I deployed to VN and have carried it ever since. It has carried a fabulously sharp edge and I have used it for everything a knife could be used for. And it still has a warranty but at my age, I think I will let it go if I would need to use it. If not, I will pass it to my son. I also have a Randall custom made fighting knife but I prefer the Buck, to be honest. American made, too.

    I carry a Kershaw, and I love the knife. I also carry a easy flip knife if I’m working, mainly as you said; you can open it with one hand. It really comes in hand and a Italian made. I love that knife. But my Kershaw is my go to around the city, anywhere, knife. We’re the flip I keep just on the farm. And I carry a original , Swiss army with me on my keychain for meh car. xD can’t beat that little thing, it’s reliable, safe and fun to use and holds a hell of a edge. Anyways! I hope you all are having a great day :)

    Try the Ontario rat1 in d2 steel. 35 - 40 bucks may just change your life.

      I have the rat and rat2, I prefer my Sypderco Tenacious combo blade... after carrying it for the last couple years, going back to my Rats, they leave me wanting more...

      I carry a tenacious as well and for more formal things I carry a Kershaw Leek Backwash and for a 40 dollar and hundred dollar knife they are great.

      -SquidwardQTennisballs - almost the same here, I carry the Kershaw Emerson wave for dress, slim profile and am totally addicted to the wave opening system.

    My EDC Blade is a "SOG Trident" that I had and never failed me for over 10 years. My EDC Multi Tool is a LeatherMan Wingman that I had for 1.5 years now.
