Best blade for a Zombie Apocalypse 2023 edition

[Lunar_Preparedness]

Now that the knife market has exploded and there are a zillion new makers and models, which folding pocket knife would you carry if the Undead roamed the streets? I think the Benchmade Crooked River would be a great candidate. What's yours?

 

[JPD1998]

Well, "Z-Hunter".... it's purpose built.

LOL, nailed it! That's a really cool Z Hunter model. I don't think I've ever seen that one.

My daughter wanted it and a Mermaid knife

Was it the new Boker Tactical Mermaid (all black) that Blade HQ dropped recently? That was a cool one.

I thought we banned new members whose first posts mention zombies?

I'm almost embarrassed to admit this.... but since it's been a couple years since the "Zombie Craze"......
I'm thinking I must be missing it a tiny bit?
Part of me is daydreaming about a Big Lopper I'm making. And I was Maybe thinking of using orange terotuff scales, and green liners. :/

No, it's exactly like this one.

Nah... that idea was cancelled after the covid vaccine came out.

Very cool!

 

[Steely_Gunz]

I would opt for a stabby triad lock like a 6" Counterpoint.

 

[ferider]

Wouldn't use a folder. All that goop, fungus, etc., ... too much impact on the drop-shut action.

 

[Lee D]

If this was a real situation, I’d skip folders and carry a machete and an affordable, stout fixed blade. The discontinued Buck Nighthawk would have been ideal.

 

[1911bphil]

If I had to use a folder, I will use my Cold Steel 4Max Scout. It is overbuilt and can withstand the madness. I would prefer to use a machete due to the longer reach.

Yep.

Or this:

 

[Delgadonine]

Rick Grimes and Daryl Hix designed a great knife. Spyderco makes it under their 'Ghost writer' company 'Zombieco'.

The blades are 'Damascus'. Three ingredients: 1095, Magnacut and Chad Nichols himself.

Haha
