(Official?) Pocket Knife Discussion Thread

The only thing about that Benchmade customizer is that it makes the knife soooo expensive in comparison to buying one premade.

Still looking for another knife though. Thinking Spyderco Para2:

Black/Black


or

Black/Camo

I love mine. Carry it every day, use it about every day. BTW, mine is the half serrated model.

Here is a bunch more of the Salt line of knives

But I thought all the SpyderCo salts had the same steel type?

They do, H1. I'm going to PM you some reviews for u to look at from bladeforums. H1 is also supposed to be a "work hardened" steel. From what I understand that means the more it gets put to use the harder it becomes

Aha, I did not know it didn't hold an edge. I need a blade that is rust resistant, I'll probably always be living around the ocean, for the foreseeable future anyways. I need to do some research now because I didn't ever hear that about the Spyderco. Damn it.

Oops, you're correct. My FOG eyes didn't read the "para" in military

Mine is the Military, black on black.
