Ugh I haven't bought a GEC since I bought 4 different Pembertons earlier last year. It's getting to me. BUT I bought this. A modern a traditional, a Tony Bose design. JE Made Zulu. My second JE Made. My first is a Lanny's Clip with a beautiful desert ironwood and a handground satin blade. The backsp...

Your back river collection has gotten so good that thing is perfect

JE Made Zulu in contoured checkered titanium with brass inserts. S35vn.
Hard pull and a strong spring.

The military is fun. Great detent for thumb or middle finger. Mine drop shuts.

I really like a good liner lock. The ones on militaries are some of the best. My Polestar also had a good one though the action wasn't anywhere near a Military. Spyderco really does know how to make a good liner lock. Honestly, liner lock with phosphor bronze washers is a folding knife to me. How I ...

Knives to compete with Civivi, Bestech, etc. So, nice g10, more bd1, thin grinds. I know it can be done. Obvioysly I don't know if it is worthwhile focusing on competing in that price point but hey. Also, what Vivi said about fixed blades. Or even make them 40-50$$. I think they'd likely be good sel...

Microtech Socom Elite and Reel Steel Luna.

Might do the Slysz Bowie New Year's Eve. New year's day will be spent on the road so probably just a traditional and my SE native lw in the glove compartment

Love my serrated one and my hap40 one. Would I prefer a Native 5 wharncliffe? Yes. Would I really prefer a hollow ground Native 5 wharncliffe in s90v. Yes yes yes.

I would get the chief. Or the military. They're both great.

I've been over the compression lock in my collection. Just kinda fell out for me the last 6 or 7 months. But, I do want to try the button compression lock. I love button locks and I think a button with the compression lock behind it instead of a plunge lock would solve some issues plunge locks may h...

I'm gonna wait for BBB or another steel aficionado to chime in.

BUT I do think the statement "hardness = how wear resistant a steel is" is clearly false. Hardness = the quality of being hard.

I wouldn't hesitate on buying a linerless knife. I personally hesitate on frn because aesthetics but liners don't matter in my experience.

I'm in!

Good thread idea. Surprised it hasn't taken off. These were my stand outs from this year. The CRK I didn't get this year but it saw a lot of use. I'd recommend any of these knives without a doubt.

Hogue Deka I'm with GMascus handles. Love this knife. And GEC big jack.

So this one doesn’t really qualify as a traditional to me, but it’s a slipjoint so maybe. Real steel Luna, titanium handle, n690 and a pocket clip. Thin blade stock, ground super thin behind the edge. Really liking it so far. B7143B25-4A1E-4D70-B4AA-C5E18E31D195.jpeg Definitely not a traditional bu...

I've been carrying around a Queen stockman recently and its been a pleasure to use. https://files.catbox.moe/63igdv.jpg Three blades is a bit much though. Could you guys recommend a two blade pattern that has one wharncliffe blade? I'd like the main blade to have some belly, so clip point, maybe sp...
