I already own a (well, two) 119, by far my favorite knife. Would like to get a higher end but tougher knife in the same style more or less. 124 and 119 pro (s35vn) come at around the same price, with the 124 obviously being tougher due to its full tang construction and straight spine all the way to the tip, while still having the same old 420hc, which I have nothing against, but it seems a little overpriced imo.
Both of these knives seem great but are pretty expensive and I’d probably keep off beating on them too hard, especially the 119 pro, so here’s where the survivalist comes in, much lower price, seemingly more resistant than either or the other two and I wouldn’t care about beating on it, but it’s also the one I like the least due to the tacticool style and black coating and plastic sheath and non corrosion resistant steel and the fact that it’s made in Taiwan.
To those who own these knives, which one of the three is just without a doubt the best for most uses? Has anyone ever had a 119 pro or a 124 break on them? Thanks.
