Okay...so if i want a knife to come before Xmas i should buy it soon, because i live in Bulgaria, Europe. I like strange-looking knives and classic view knives.
I've made my choice to these 2 which are like the top of the budget for me - Boker S2 or Cold Steel Code 4 Tanto

Any suggestions which will you prefer? Also i like small chubby knives like the War Toad but i cant afford it - can you suggest me similar to this ( i have boker nano already)
Thanks guys !
 
The Cold Steel Code 4 is a nice knife. I have owned a few cold steel knives before and were always happy with what you get for the money. The Boker S2 looks ugly to me, so it's an easy choice IMO. Go with the Cold Steel on this one, I think you will be more impressed by that knife compared to the Boker. I have owned knives from both companies and Cold steel feels more durable and solid. I still have a Boker Plus folder because they have more interesting collaborations at entry level prices. I moved the cold steels because I was looking for other things at the time.

I don't like short chubby knives, so no help from me on that front. Maybe a Kershaw Shuffle?
 
I had a Code 4 tanto, and the F&F on it was outstanding. Great steel for the price point too!

Be forewarned, however, that it's a very thin handled knife. I was surprised by just how thin it was in hand. Decided it wasn't for me because of that. Just something to keep in mind.

I have no experience with the other folder, unfortunately. Good luck with your choice!
 
Of those 2 I'd take the Cold Steel. It's a great knife, but it is very thin as mentioned.

Since you like funky knives I'd recommend a Kizer Vanguard Roach.

If I was planning on the purchase of a Cold Steel folder, it would boil down to two models. The Code 4 and the full size American Lawman.

I'd recommend staying away from the Lawman unless you can get one in hand. It's a great knife, but the ergonomics are kind of strange. It didn't fit my hand at all. Others love them though.
