Hey guys, this is my first post :p..first of all this forum is awesome, I enjoyed reading the posts very much.
Im interested in buying a emerson PUK as my first knife, but I got some questions,
*How come the price difference on different websites is greater than $100? Are they the same knife and sheath?

* Is this knife a good choice for a fixed blade around $150 - $200?

Thanks in advance :D
Sorry for my poor english.
 
Don't know about the Emerson, but in that price range, I'd try Swamp Rat knives, or Scrapyard knives.
Enjoy the forum :)
 
Welcome to BF.
The Emerson PUK is a nice knife, and i bet you would be very happy with it. But for what your willing to spend, i would get a swamp rat M6 or a Ranger knife.
 
the PUKs are "ok" but i dont really like them, emerson is more known for folders vs fixed blades imho, a lot of better FBs around for the same dollar.
 
Thanks for the input guys.
I just got an email from emersonknives.com saying that they r not producing PUKs anymore :(...
Took a look at the knives u guys mentioned, the swamp rats look pretty bad Im comparing them with the chris reeve's shadow III and Aviator.
Any comments on the chris reeve's FBs?

Thanks :D
 
reeves FBs are top notch imho, busses are also pretty darned good, or ya could try strider too.
 
I just picked up a PUK from Plaza yesterday, man I dont know why I didnt get one earlier, this thing is just the right size. Now if I could only find one in Green....
