I would like to have the opinion of the people which uses the EDC talonite, the price seems to you you it suitable?
is a this good purchase
thank you for your answers
 
I had one and regret trading it. Talonite just keeps cutting even though it feels dull. Its the only production talonite folder. At list price, it still a bargain.
 
The blade is great and holds a cutting edge for a long time, but the handle is prone to rust. Only thing wrong about the Tal EDC.
 
I have two Talons and one EDC. All in talonite. It is a great material and the Talons are an absolutely great design (not a fan of their older sheaths though).

I'm a bit ambivalent about the EDC. I think the design could be improved (easier to close - hard lock release for some reason, in general prefer different overall design more like the Scott Cook Locsha or William Henry T12), the handle materials should be titanium, and the workmanship could have been better (on mine anyway - blade so off-centered that it rubs the handle when closing). All that said, it is the only game in town for a factory folder with a talonite blade and I'm a fan of talonite. As far as price, it isn't that bad and you can sometimes pick up a barely used one for less than $100 on the forums...
