Gayle Bradley
CPM4-Manix 2

Gayle Bradley's seem to be highly thought of. I do like the look of the Chokwe's though... what's it's intended use?

Chokwe is great for food prep because of its long, flat, FFG blade. It's almost like a Santoku. It's an excellent EDC knife that is great at just about everything else, but it is not as "tough" as a Gayle Bradley. I wouldn't stab a Chokwe into a car door, but the Gayle Bradley feels like it would have no problem with it.

I was talking about what the OP's purpose for the knife was, but thankss for the insight :)
Basic Edc uses. But if needed for heavier, no worries.
Gayle Bradley then.
 
I'm mainly torn between the Chokwe ( love the looks ), and the Bradley ( toughness ). Hmmm.
 
I have the GB and the Sage 2 as well. They are both classy knives, but I prefer the GB. The Sage 2 carries very well but I wouldn't want to mess it up. The GB is bigger in pocket but feels so solid and smooth.

P.S. M4...you know you want to!
 
I ended going with the Chokwe. I couldn't resist the Wharnie and titanium framelock. Bradley is next though.
 
I vote Gayle Bradley. Having owned both the M4 manix and Gayle Bradley, I find myself reaching for the GB more often. I find M4 performs better with a high hollow grind rather than FFG. However, I prefer the Manix's lock.
