Knives

[BaliLover]

http://www.bladeforums.com is a great place to find out about knives, from fixed blades to autos. I've been a member there alot longer than I've been a member here and its a great community.

I've got a pretty large collection myself, and like Nathan, my beater is a Cammilus EDC, but mine looks horrible from year of use in a body shop. As for being unable to justify $145 for a knife, most of those guys will tell you that you get what you pay for. I've got knives that I paid alot more for than that, and you can tell it in the details.

If you're anywhere near mechanically inclined, check out http://www.knifekits.com They have great quality kits, the prices are pretty low, and you get to put them together the way you want. I've got close to 6 knife kits and have been totally satisfied with all of them.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with carrying a knife at any age, it is NOT a concealed weapon, it's a tool. Carry it Toki, just dont carry it to school. Or do, heck I always did.

thats interesting, thanks for the info.

i have a smith and wesson SWAT tactical

I have a 4" version of this knife. I like it. Very smooth operation. Flick it right and you can snap the blade out without starting it with yout thumb. Looks good too. Best part for me was I didn't pay a dime for it. Someone left it at my house and never claimed it. And I have no idea who.

And no...it's none of you. :pface

[IvoryJ30t]

yeah. i love the metal frame, and the nylon blade bushing lets you just flick it open. sucker's sharp, and holds an edge pretty good.

just a wrist flick will pop it open.

I just got an benchmade yesterday

[Nathan]

Which benchmade? I'm thinking either a benchmade or a CUDA Maxx will be my next knife. Oh, and Toki...ya gotta remember that they give knives to Cub Scouts It can't be too illegal!

[Mr1der]

yeah, it's usually a length issue with knives.

and Nathan, I don't think the Cuda is gonna be legal to carry anywhere, did you notice the open length on that sucker? 12 freakin' Inches!

if you want one though, check ebay (assuming your comfortable with it)

another good make for knives is Micro-Tech, the makers of the HALO II, the coolest freakin' auto knife ever!

i have a smith and wesson SWAT tactical....

I don't have a knife but when I get about 45 bucks to blow that will definately be the one....l love those....

[Nathan]

Legal schmeagal...did you see they are coming out with a 7 inch version? It's going to be about 270 bucks though

[Mr1der]

yikes, D2 and craftsmanship are worth it though.

I think ebay had the Maxx for about 120 or so last I looked...

[Tino]

I just carry one of these along with me everywhere I go.
