Way too broad of a question.
What is your price range?
How large?
What uses?

With out knowing any of that. I highly recommend the $70 Cold Steel Code4. I own/have owned probably 50 or so folding knives that cost between $15-$250, and my go to dependable work knife is the Code4. (pic related)

OP. Buy a TDI Hell Fire. There ya go.

How am I being an Attention whore? I'm talking about the topic on hand. OP asked a question, I answered it with a relevant answer, including a pic of the item I'm discussing. Unlike Hinter who just rolls and does not really add to conversation.

Your problem is? Sorry if you are triggered by seeing something other than "Anonymous"

That's what I carry.

I took Krav Maga for a while and tried different ways of carrying knives (practice knives when doing knife fighting) and found tip up worked best for me.

When I chose my knife I wanted it to meet the convention of a "standard pocket knife" according to florida state law. That way I can carry it in places where I can't carry a gun. That means no mechanical/assisted opening. I claim the emerson notch doesn't count but I guess that's up to the court to decide. It also meant blade length restrictions and no serrations.

I see people all the time carrying knives that are only allowed by CWP. I know they are unlikely to have an issue but they are really putting themselves at a disadvantage (even if they have a CWP). The most important is if they go to a bar carrying it they are committing a crime that could get their license revoked.

After carrying several different knives in different configurations I came to the conclusion this is the best knife for everyday carry that a) make me as combat effective as possible while b) meeting state laws that allow me to carry it virtually everywhere.

I also carry a gerber dime on my keychain and have a victorinox rescue tool with my first aid kit in the car. I have a larger multitool in my bag.
>>
>>32890794
that does not look the least bit comfy to use. especially for such a large blade, which implies fairly large tasks.
>>
>>32890856
Copy and paste what from Wikipedia? I did not know wikipedia had such nuanced knowledge of individual knives from so many brands.

>I'm highly experienced
Where did I say that? I said I have a lot of experience, and considering I've been into knives for 10ish years, I don't think that is not true.

So far, what have you done to add to the conversation? Maybe the problem is people like you bitching about people who actually like discussing their hobby.

So are you the same person? I kind of get the feeling you are all Hunter, funny how "he" shows up when someone mentions how they hate namefags... Almost like you are just one big troll.
>>
>>32890888
Some people do find the handle a little thin and uncomfortable. I don't have this issue, but it is a problem depending on your hand size.

But generally I recommend Cold Steel if you want a good dependable Beater, and Benchmade, Spyderco, ZT, ect... if you want something that is still as functional but with some more attention to detail and some more bells and whistles.
>>
Look at the benchmade hidden canyon OP. I'm getting one later today to replace my griptillian. Fixed blades are superior to folders imo but my griptillian is amazing
>>
>>32890906

I, 32890884, am in no way affiliated with any tripfaggotry trolling.
>>
>>32890426
Spyderco delica or endura

Swiss army knife

Otter mercator

Cold steel code 4, recon 1 or medium voyager

Benchmade Griptillian

Chink stuff:
Ganzo knives (All >20$) and good quality/ Real steel knives/Sanrenmu knives/ Enlan knives/ Kershaw


Fixed knives:

Mora for the price

Condor for traditional style and good price

Addition:

You should really take a look at the Otter.
I use it since 1 and a half year now.
Cooking, whittling, cutting zip ties, it did everything. It weighs nothing and is very thin, you'll forget that it's in your pocket.

High carbon c56 steel (rust shows after few hours if wet) which is durable but easy to sharpen.
It's only a few bucks.
Downside is that the backlock can come with vertical play which doesn't affect the function though. The blade rests on the plastic backspacer dulling the tip.

I use my kershaw scallion more than any of my other knives. Anything with a 3.5" blade is too cumbersome, some people carry even larger knives lol. I like texas toothpicks but tend to lose them. The Ontario Rat2, Gerber Evo Mini, Gerb Paraframe Mini, are all perfect size knives I My Opinion. I do HVAC and use knives often. I find that big heavy hands don't need big heavy knives, Small hands need big knife.

I will never understand why anyone would want to carry a shitbenza, or anything else for that matter, over the Almighty COLD STEEL ESPADA XL with CTX-XHP STEEL, ALUMINUM BOLSTERS, AND POLISHED G10.
>>
>>32891328
Al Mar was Chinese, so calling it a Chinese knife isn't really wrong. granted he's dead, but that makes them an even dumber buy. his wife ordering knives, with no discernible difference in quality than other knives that come out the same factory, then jacking up the price to put his name on it, makes them a stupid buy.

Maybe they want a knife that will survive a 3 foot fall better than an iphone :)
>>
>>32891465
Dear friend, that was the old model. This one was hand inspected at the factory, presumably by Emperor Thompson and Count Demko themselves.

kek, this is very true.

>>32891465
I'm very curious how a XL Espada would not survive a 3 foot fall any better or worse than a Sebenza?
>>
>>32891612
Contrary to popular belief, CRK is actually pretty damn good about warranty work. They actually replaced the blades on the two snapped Sebenzas that always get posted in /ktg/.

This is dumb
ANON you can see his name is namefag, he is one because you make fun of it, to spite you. The more you cry, the more everyone wants to be a name fag.

And namefag, you're cool buddy way more helpful than this nigger

My old Espada took a fall and the screw to the thumb plate bent. I tried to fix it and ended up overtorquing the screw, shearing the head off.

>>32891705
>two snapped Sebenzas
you're not making your case very well
>>
>>32891858
lol yeah... But to be fair, this stuff is pretty much unavoidable. At the end of the day the Sebenza is a production knife, so there will be defects. It comes down to how often, and how the manufacture deals with claims.

I have my issues with them (see >>>32891654 ) but in general they are very well made at lest.
>>
>>32890426

Don't buy a folding knife. Buy a fixed blade.
