Why not buy both, so you won't say "Damn this knive is good, I wonder what the other blade must feel like...".

You may get a discount!

Oh you funniguy! Do I look like I'm made out of gold?

Tess what a find great looking knifes, the look heavy

To add in to this string on knives , i would say after using  CRKT, Smith and Wesson (say away bad gromits and the blade becomes loose) and spiderco I have found Kershaw to be on the top of the list. Add to the fact they are self assisted , almost like a switch blade but legal good medal and hold a edge for a good long time.

 

[Mike Baker]

Whoa, Tess, those are very nice indeed. Too bad my money isn't in the best place now.

Soon as I saw his work I jumped all over them.  The guy seemed honest and his work very good.

How many shall I put you down for?

Emerson knives are really nice, simple, rugged, and reliable. You can drive over them with a tank and they will still open.

Just throwin' this out there...

My friend had a similar "catastrophe" occur. He went to <Insert Country Here> (can't remember where it was he went) and had a 13" blade custom forged from Black Steel with his name engraved and his family coat of arms stamped on it. It looked AMAZING; he officially had it in possesion for 8 days when he called and said: "We're taking another trip to <Insert Country Here> to get me a new knife." I replied: "Why?" "Because I think I lost it when I went hunting yesterday."

We found it close to 3 months after he called, the blade was chipped, mangled, battered and broken; someone used it to do some dirtywork.

I'm just starting my millitary career  and I'm looking for a knife. ^-^ The parents have to be amiable, I'd like it to be MY knife and last me for a LONG while. I was thinking a full tang ie not folding. The parents have to be sold on it. :-\

You are in the 1st Hussars, and need your parents to approve the use of a knife?  Are you in cadets?  If that is the case, I sugest a swiss army knife, although not a full tang, much more usefull and pleaseing to mum and dad....

I'd suggest a rubber safety knife....

 

[Sig_Des]

Say it before, and say it again. I've never needed anything more than my Gerber multi-tool or my small CRKT M16 folder.

Others may have the need, I haven't.

I was given a wonderful SEAL pup last christmas by Scrooge and it has served me very very well.

I was wondering if you were having a use for it

 

[1h_trooper]

I don't need my parents to approve, but they will be he ones using it.

Looks like a good knife, which sheath do you use?

Last time I checked 1H was a PRES unit, I'll double check for you though. I am 16 if that is what you're trying to get at. More like th knife itself, eg no kukris/KA-BARs
