So I was surfing the youtubes and I came across a cutlery lover video where he showed a boker s2. I loved the knife when I saw it! Not as a daily use/EDC knife, but just for a cool knife to be like "yo! Check this knife I just bought!" kinda knife. Ya know? Anyways more Internet paroosing found me 2 more "silly" knives. So I would like some help deciding which to get. It may be pressed into an EDC role but I have my buck vantage select for work and my Buck paradigm pro for play. The 3 knives I have chosen are:
Boker S2
Cold Steel Spartan
Cold Steel Espada G10 Large

I like the fact they are big, intimidating, and with the cold steels, they can "wave" off the pocket for instant impressing of others. I'm open to other suggestions, but those are what I've come up with myself. Thanks in advance guys.
 
Spyderco Tuff is a nice show off. It is quite the monster of a knife. And you can call the fuller a "blood groove" if you wanted :P
 
Just checked out the tuff. It looks cool but IMHO the blade doesn't look aggressive enough and I have this weird thing against frame locks. It is a sexy knife tho.
 
Does it have to be a folder? If not, check out the blood tap from Microtech. The Jagdkommando.
 
Cold Steel Espada XL and not the G10 one either. I'm sure that will grab some attention.

Yes. That thing will but I dot have that kind of coinage. And also yes I would like it to be a folder. Now I'm also thinking rajah 2.
 
I think basically I want a big impractical knife that looks bass arse. Rajah 2 seems to fit the bill. Huge, wave, looks hard as nails and those cold steel videos indicate it can take a punch. It seems to be in the lead.

I have a rajah 2. I carry it when I don't carry a pistol. :D
 
I suppose that's a good trade off. Lol. Up here in Canada, pistols aren't a common sight. I would love to carry my cold steel SRK all the time, but people stare if its just sitting there on ur belt. The rajah could stow away.

I did measure most of my pants pockets before I bought it. After finding out that they fit, it was green light all the way.

Yeah, I know, you said you don't like liner/frame locks. Something here might change your mind.
 
That shark thing is ridiculous. If somebody showed you that, you would just look like an idiot I feel. Cool mantle piece tho.
 
The Rajah II is also very easy to wave open.
Almost too easy.
Even a middle aged armchair commando can do it. :)
