cqc7 drop point satin blade,Gentleman Jim or Roadhouse, all around performance...

I like the design of these knives and am planning to buy one of these in next few days.Which one of these would be the best for all around edc, utility tasks and even self defense in emergency

 

[dr_fosg8]

Probably the cqc-7a. I assume that you meant the a blade.

While all of those models will work for your intended usage, I believe the Roadhouse will perform the best. I'm carrying a Super Roadhouse right now and I've been using it the last few days around the firehouse for general tasks and I have to say the blade shape has worked really well.

 

[Oklahoma-5-0]

The Roadhouse! I am very partial to this blade and handle combo for reasons you listed.

For an EDC purposed knife, it's hard to beat the CQC-7A. I have both the A&B, but for EDC, I prefer the A simply for more belly.

Have you maybe considered a Horseman?

 

[Officer's Match]

Yes, definitely consider the Horseman.

Here's a pic of a couple of your contenders. I really enjoy both and the GJ handles daily tasks better than I thought it would. I like the blade/handle ratio and handle shape on the GJ more. The 7 strikes me as a beasty tough EDC and sees more pocket time.

The Horseman is great if you want a little more than what the 7 offers in blade lenth and ergos. Horseman carries very well in pocket with it's slender profile. At one point, a Horseman SF was my only EDC knife for almost 2 years.
