Favorite Knife Company?

I guess it would be Spyderco since I own far more of them than any other brand. However, I do dearly love my Buck/Mayo's (TNT & Waimea) and my wood inlayed Sebenza as well.
 
I own more Cold Steel than any other knife. My collection is at approx 30. This includes knives in the wife's collection. OTOH, I mainly carry a modded Emerson.

At the moment, probably Himalayan Imports. Yangdu is easily one the the nicest and most genuine people I've had the pleasure of doing buisness ever and on top of all that HI's khukris are some of the best and toughest out there. After that, Ka-Bar.
 
I think Spyderco produces some nearly-flawless folding blades at amazingly low prices. I only wish they'd venture into the realm of non-stainless fixed blades. I carry a Spyderco P'Kal with me whenever I'm wearing a pair of pants -- and, on most days, have a Native, Tenacious, Chinook, or Ti-Military as its wingman.

Of all the multi-tools I've owned I think Victorinox makes the best product -- functional, and just downright beautiful; but -- I've also been impressed with how functional my 20-dollar-beater Schrade multi-tool has held up.

...And I'll also come out and say that I'm an unabashed fan of Cold Steel; even if they are completely over-the-top with their marketing -- I think they make a few truly exceptional products, especially given their price-point (think about their kukri machete -- or stupidly-enormous ~70-dollar 6" Voyager). Say what you will about Lynn Thompson's, often unnecessarily harsh, remarks about 'his competitors' -- but the company does not give a rats-ass about being politically correct in their designs -- and from a practical self-defense standpoint are really hard to beat. And not just in knives...Do any of you guys actually OWN a Cold Steel Torpedo? It's a goddamn lawn-dart from the depths of Mordor -- and bless his heart -- Lynn thought to make a dollar-and-a-cent by selling these babies at fifteen dollars a pop. I bought half a dozen. Gave some to friends. Chicks do -- indeed -- love the Torpedo; and giving them away to gals -- if you play your cards right -- I would wager -- just might get you laid. They should add that to the video where the serviceman talks about killing an insurgent with his Cold Steel folder. Bless you Lynn Thompson -- and God Bless Cold Steel.

(It's been a long night.)

Case Bench-er-Queens.

I like too many knife companies and for many different reasons. Traditionals, Case, Queen, Schatt Morgan,

Modern I love Benchmade and Spydercos.

I currently have the Sebenza Bladeforum passaround, and I simply love it, but I cannot call it my favorite manufacturer, because it is out of my budget currently. I am too much of a realist.
