Edc for heavy use. Benchmade 111H2O vs. Esee Izula?

[C Tom]

Love the izula not sure about the bm 111H2O. I know the 1095 steel used on the izula is more rust prone. I use my edc around water frequently and that is the only reason for considering the 111.

I live in the saltiest, wettest, most humid swamp in the history of humid, salty, wet swamps. If you don't believe me, come check out the lowcountry for yourself

Never had a single rust issue with my izula2 (or any carbon steel for that matter). Just use it, don't let it sit, keep it clean. No problemo :thumbup:

I agree...

Exactly what I wanted to hear. Thanks for the help.

since you said heavy use...
if there is a chance you would pry with it, i'd go for the izula.
i've never had any problems with rust on my izula-2 either, just wipe it off against your pants before sheathing it.
