have you looked at the rat cutlery hest? mines gonna be my permenant EDC when it arrives. http://www.ratcutlery.com/dpxgear.htm

 

[Thalestin]

Rat izula and bm 710 would be what I would get

Or the rat izula and spyderco para mil (i just love the para, sorry)

 

[Ankerson]

Out of that list I would say the ZT 0200

 

[hwpaintballer]

JYDII with titanium handles and SG2 blade, you can find them for around $150 but it may be a little hard to find.

 

[3mptin3ss]

recon & bm barrage
manix2 & izula
manix 2 & recon1

 

[marthinus]

Rat izula and bm 710 would be what I would get

Or the rat izula and spyderco para mil (i just love the para, sorry)

You beat me to it! I think that would make a killer combination for edc and hiking!:thumbup::thumbup:

 

[mr2blue]

Of your list I would go with Zero Tolerance MUDD $150.00 I would also add Kershaw Junyard Dog II Titanium framelock with SG2

 

[derrickd803]

From that list: Spyderco Manix II & Rat Izula gets my vote

 

[T Schloz]

ZT 0200 and a Byrd Cara Cara.

Have D2 Para in my pocket as I type.

 

[Slidetechnik]

I'd get the RAT, Manix, and Byrd.

 

[elkins45]

Manix 2 and whatever else keeps you under budget.

 

[mr2blue]

JYDII with titanium handles and SG2 blade, you can find them for around $150 but it may be a little hard to find.

My favorite production of all time. I have 1 user and 3 NIB in the safe. The JYD 1725SG2 ranks right up there with most of my customs. I bought the Tim Gaylean Pro Series as well, I am F'd up

 

[SPXTrader]

If you want big strong folders, start with the ZT0200.

And as mentioned, if you can find a Ti/SG2 JYDII, that would be a great choice.

 

[ColonelX]

Manix 2 definately

I also have a safe queen for just in case, and a user. I highly recommend a low rider clip by STR, the JYDII disappears into my pocket and rides great.

 

[alaskanmonte]

If you already have small EDC knives and you like big strong knives; then you need to get the Zero Tolerance MUDD.

The MUDD is a great knife and is as heavy duty as anything else out there (production wise) in your price range.

 

[newknife]

whatever you buy..if you have $25 left over by one of these....

you won't be disappointed!

 

[Stainz]

Skip the lunch out a few days and add that to your stash. If you want a really fine, and large, folder, get the full sized 610 Rukus. Second choice: go with the B-M 710 D2 and a RAT Izula.
