Hello what is your favorite cheapo knife (this is the first thread I have made tell me if did anything wrong)

To me "Cheapo" does not mean the same thing as "Inexpensive". Victorinox, Rat I & II, and most of the knives listed are not cheapo, they are inexpensive. To me cheapo is crap like the $3-4 knives you can pick up at Walmart or those knives for sale at truck stops.

For me it is the utilitac II. Fantastic knife for $25.

Dammit, I just went and bought one because of your post (and some corroborating research)

God help knife enthusiasm if one of us ever has a favorite $3 gas station knife.

can't beat the vast array of models and prices of Kershaw. You can get an Injection 3.5 for 15 pops at KC, one of my favorite budget blades. And Rat 1s can be found for less than 30.

Can't say I carry it too often but I do like keeping a CRKT Folding Razel around as a beater.

This is also my choice. I really like that knife.

I think mora knives give the best “cheapo” thrill in a knife.

Kershaw and Shrade make some damn sturdy knives for under 20 bucks and they are lightweight also. I just grabbed a Kershaw Thistle for 15 clams. Comes with push button that makes it a true easy one handed opening and closing blade.

Kershaw Skyline. I bought my first one years ago at a Walmart while I was on vacation as a beater knife. I now have 4 different flavors

have a few lower cost knives that i really enjoy. first off the crkt m-16, both the standard sized with frn scales and the 3.5” steel framlock model. they’re a lot of fun and great knives for the price. up next is the crkt fossil. it’s a fairly large frame lock that my boys got me one year for christmas. finally the kershaw chill. has a nice thin handle profile and one of the best flipper actions i’ve owned

Inexpensive not cheap

Emerson Kershaw CQC-4KXL KAI 6055

Great , inexpensive , 4" wave opening !

The Kershaw Dividend and Link are extremely nice for being 30 dollar knives. And any SAKs.

 

[MolokaiRider]

I also think the FRN version of the Kershaw Link is high value and well built.

Kershaw Chill for me. Does my $5 garage sale special Buck 110 count?

The one that is *always* with me. The $15 Wenger Esquire, analog to the Victorinox Classic.

When you think about it, there's really no need to go over 50 bucks. But here we are.
