Hey guys I got 200 bucks to spend and don't know where to start. It could go anywhere.So I need some suggestions.
Things I have been looking into lately
Dpx Hest folder(soooo tempting)
Investing in precious metals
A nice pen(fountain or otherwise)
Busse(is there such a knife for 200?) would love to get some infi goodness
Zero tolerance line
CA legal autos, protech runt/tantilla BM impel
Nice flashlight(4sevens, fenix, surefire, maglite)
A saddleback leather wallet
ANYTHING

Suggestions needed
 
I'm not that greedy. I'll settle for a $100 knife and you can do whatever you want with the other $100. Thanks! :D:thumbup:
 
Get yourself a Spyderco Gayle Bradley and a Saddleback Leather wallet. You'll have a little money left over and you'll thank me later.
 
Not quite the response I was looking for, but a response none-the-less. i should have stated the money is not for a charitable cause. :D

More seriously, my vote goes to the DPx HEST folder or a ZT.

Ya thats where my head is at right now, but I have plenty of knives. I feel like I should branch out and get a nice flashlight. And finding a hest folder now will be a nightmare. Oh and anyone know a busse for $200, and not a kin either.
 
The best investment would be precious metals, in all reality.

You couldn't give me a HEST knife. I think they look horrendous. UGH.

I'm a big fan of Fenix flashlights. You could get a couple of those (one small for EDC, one large for other tasks) and a Saddleback wallet for $200 pretty easily.
 
I think hests look just fine, plus you can use the top as a bottle opener! and as far as a nice flashlight goes, Im not looking to spend the whole 200 on one or two flashlights
 
You can get a Fenix LD10 or 20 for around $59- $69. And then a Benchmade
pen for around $120. Sounds like a great EDC carry combo to me.
 
Go for an Ra Clicky, and invest the rest in CR123As and precious metals!

There. All set for the apocalypse. :D

Or in case you aren't so concerned with bartering for MREs, get the Clicky + batteries, and a Lamy Safari (amazing value, incredibly durable fountain pen), a converter, some Noodler's Bombproof Black, and a small Rite in the Rain notepad. Just add a knife of your choosing, and you have an EDC setup that might just outlast you!

Yea, I was guesstimating on that price. You can also look into the Hinderer
kubatons. Theres a pen attachment you can put on. I think its pretty pricey for
that option tho.
 
Try to get one of the last runs of the ZT 0551 - you'll be glad you did.
