So im looking to get myself a gift. Around 100 bucks is all im looking to spend this time around. My birthday is in about a month and im celebrating that along with getting a interview at a restaurant that i have very high hopes of getting a job at. Im looking for a fairly decent sized no smaller then 3.5 blade but trying to stay at around 4.
Like around 100 bucks but im kinda flexible since i dont have any mid priced blades anymore (100-150ish). My edc for a little over a month now has been a ti lite that my mom bought me, iv enjoyed it but im just looking to upgrade to something with a little more utility to it for EDC. The ti lite is more of a self defense kind of thing.


There are a few things im considering right now but im not too knowledgeable in the bigger knife category.
Kershaw JYD 2.2 Composite.
Spyderco military (basic stock black g10 satin s30v blade model) I used to never care for spyderco but i have been looking at the mili for a while and it seems nice, amazon has it for 125 and i feel like thats a pretty good price.
ZT 0200.

Help me decide guys 0.0.
 
Get the Military. One of the best knives money can buy.

If you happen to have the military do you think you could post a few pictures comparing it to some other knives? (if you have any of my other considerations that would be great but if not just any other folders would do)
 
I'm in between Military's at the moment, looking for a Ti version myself but have owned plenty. A quick google or BF search should produce plenty of pics as well as countless videos on YT. I have also owned a ZT 0200 and while its a nice design, the military feels like an all around better edc IMO. It's an excellent slicer and very comfortable to use. Only downside is if you plan to do a lot of prying with it as the tip is pretty thin.

I dont really plan on prying with the knife. Im going to go google and stuff to see if i can find some good comparisons.
 
what makes the mili worth 130 bucks? I havent personally held one but im just curious. I know alot of my cheaper knives after using and stuff they start to loosen up and developed blade play and i had to disassemble them clean out the junk oil it quite frequently. Is this gonna be the case with the milli?
 
idk after looking it over and looking through it i dont see anything that makes the military worth the money to me tbh. Its just black g10 and s30v and to me thats not worth 130$
