Whats your favorite Knife brand?

[dlbrown75]

Not looking for which one is the best. Just curious what brand of knife others prefer. Fixed/folding doesnt matter.
I like Fallkniven.

Benchmade for folders. Spyderco a very close second.

TOPS for fixed blades.

Despite there being many good brands and countless fantastic custom makers, I still like Spyderco.

 

[9mmfan]

Benchmade for folders and Esee for fixed blade. I happen to own one of both!

 

[NathanJefferson]

Spyderco and benchmade for folders and of course Busse for fixed blades :-D.

Other notables - ESEE, TOPS, Bark river and hopefully a soon a spartan and a strider .

Strider for folders
Microtech for automatics
Strider yet again for a fixed blade

Jesus! That's $1500.00 worth of knives easy! You have excellent taste, I just hope you have the pocket book to feed that pallet of yours.

Check out my profile picture those are my kids lol. Looking to add a Microtech halo 5 to the collection. But hopefully in january i will be shipping off to boot camp and once i get out i will get my first fixed blade. I like the striders because nothing says confidence like a .25 inch thick slab of steel strapped to your gear.

My fave at the moment is my Benchmade 300SN axis flipper. The combo of the flipper and the axis lock
make it dreamy for a lefty.

 

[SSGSAD]

Ka-Bar, and ESEE !!!!!

I'm not knocking Strider at all but have you checked out any of TOPS' knives? Seriously you can get a 1/4" thick blade of 1095 steel for less than half of what a Strider costs. And it will do everything the Strider will do. It may require a little more maintenance, 1095 is high carbon and will rust if not oiled, but for the money they are worth a look.

I own a Spyderco and a Benchmade, but I think my favorite is one of the Ken Onion Kershaws. Let the flaming begin...

 

[buckstopshere]

I'm partial to ESEEs. Here's most of mine...

Just because of the.....5 digits?...I've spent on Busse and kin, I'll go with that.

I love Busse, great knives, great people, but lately they haven't had any offering that have just WOW'd me. Or I have a knife for every use and can't justify another at the moment.

I only have 2 Hinderers at the moment, a folder and a fixed blade, I love them both. Very nice quality, great feel, just awesome on all ends

I like Treeman knives too, especially the knuckle knives though I've yet to buy one.

I'm also big into RMJ tactical, Ryan Johnson is awesome in person and is always nice to talk to.

I only have 1 Bark River, but I usually like the designs and the zero edge conveving on pretty much all of their knives

My Kershaw Tanto Blur is my favorite. Bought it several years ago from our Snap-On dealer. Been my EDC ever since.

No flaming on Kershaws here. I Like my aforementioned Benchmade,
but most days my pocket has a poor man's Hinderer in it also. (Kershaw Cryo)

 

[Dean C.]

Yeah i will look into those. It will actually be my first fixed blade.

 

[Bunnykid68]

A fan of the old Case knives

 

[kawtech87]

Oh well then by all means go all out. Get exactly what you want.

I have been collecting, trading, selling, buying and so forth for quite a while.

I used to use spyderco when I was in rodeo. I even have one I won at a rodeo. They are good knives, but I carry a kershaw now and find them great knives for the price. You can get a good kershaw for $20.

I also like some of the gerber spring assists and have a couple HK i recently got to fool around with. I found out that HK are made by benchmade.
