It's so hard to say - there have been so many. The Southard and Bradley are probably my favorites from the last few years, but I'd give Ed Schempp a huge nod for all the great knives he's done with Spyderco over the years. And in the fixed blade category, we have to mention Phil Wilson and Bill Moran.

I don't know that I can decide on an absolute winner. I am in a two way tie between the Southard and the GB.

I like the Jens Anso colabs. The Zulu is a really unique design.
Don't mess with the Spyder because you think you're fly.

He's an in house designer though.
I have no horse in this race. There are too many that I like.

That's a good point FCM415. If we put him in the mix does it change anybody's choice?
