Favorite type of knife?

K'tan Dantaktee · January 12, 2015, 03:27:52 PM

Title says it all.

K-bars are pretty reliable IMO. Definitely a good all-around knife.

I also do swords, axes, blunt weapons, firearms, crossbows, bows, and numerous other weapons and fighting styles.

If anybody is the pleb, its you.

The one that does the stabbing and the other one that does the cutting.

There is only one answer to this

yes

Assassin 11D7 · January 12, 2015, 03:51:07 PM

I'm going to get one at some point.

PSU · January 12, 2015, 03:53:32 PM

PLSK 1 Pathfinder or Mora Classic 1

DAS B00T x2 · January 12, 2015, 04:05:14 PM

I really like classic folders. Simple construction, simple design, nice and flat for EDC, no tacticool blade shapes.

What I'm most fond of right now is my Mercator.

Karambits

A few people in here seem to like karambits.

Yeah, they seem to be the latest blade fad after kukris died down.

What's wrong with kukris? I have one, and its nice to have something that can be used as a machete, combat weapon, survival knife, and a tool of intimidation. They're pretty badass aesthetically too.

Nothing wrong, they were kind of just an internet sensation a few years ago. Seems like karambits are the new thing now.

I don't get karambits. Sure, they look cool; but they have no real practical application. They also handle weirdly. I just don't really like 'em.

Mattie G Indahouse · January 12, 2015, 08:53:20 PM

K-Bar. If I'm getting a knife to be used for a purpose I only go with them. I got the BK7 to be used for outdoor use and I got their Zombie folder for my EDC. My next knife is going to be that Becker Tac Tool. I'm going to have that in my SUV as my oh shit knife. I also got that Light My Fire Mora for camping as well.

Same application as regular pocket knives, cutting things, whittling, etc. Also work well at self-defense.

Yeah...

Anyway, since this is basically a knife general thread, I'm thinking of getting another classic folding knife soon. Should I go with a Douk Douk,

decide on a Higonokami type knife

, or a Svord Peasant?

Spoiler

The only thing that worries me about the peasant or higo is if the main rivet comes lose and it opens too easy in a pocket... at least the douk douk has that massive spring to "lock" the blade.

I'd go with the Hig or Douk Douk. You could probably find a way to mod the rivet so it doesn't come loose; I had a similar issue with a knife I have.
