With the caveat that I don't think knives make for good investments, I'd say it is a tie between these two makers, so you'd be safe to get whichever one you like the best. I think they'll both hold their value and be relatively easy to sell later on (I guess that's my definition of a "good investment" in the knife world) since they've both been around long enough to have a following and well established reputations. Hope that helps a little.
