I quite possibly have found my edc grail. This knife hits all my “nice to have” and “must have” points right on the head! I’ve had several Chris Reeve Sebenzas and Umumzaans. I once had a Demko AD10. Two Hinderer XM-18’s. I’ve had countless Benchmades, Spydercos, Kershaws & ZT’s, Cold Steels, Bokers, Cases, Schrades, Bucks, Lion Steels, a Ruike, Brous, CRKT’s, DPX, Gerber, Kizer, SOG’s, Victorinox, and a few brands that I’m ashamed to admit to owning. Many of these were great knives but for one reason or another left me less than totally satisfied and kept me searching for my edc grail. I recently purchased a Real Steel “Sea Eagle” and after examining, carrying, and using the knife for a while now I’ve been completely satisfied with all characteristics of this knife. It has become my absolute favorite edc blade of all time. Some of its best features include a full flat ground blade with a good sharp point, mild belly, thumb ramp, and is of a good quality stainless steel. I love bearing flippers and this one has it. It opens very comfortably, smoothly, and lightening quick with a mild flick of the finger. The handles are stainless steel with G-10 inset overlays and are very ergonomic. The knife fits my hand perfectly and feels very secure when gripped. The pocket clip is very secure and simple in construction. It clips onto the pocket reliably and with little effort. It has a G-10 back spacer with one large polished contoured stainless steel standoff on the rear of the knife. The whole knife has a very simple, not busy, look about it with only two large fastener heads showing on either side. I like this knife so well I’ll probably pick up a carbon fiber scale one just to have a set of them. What do you other Sea Eagle owners think of yours?

I didn't post in the thread about great knife names because I couldn't remember one but I do declare the Real Steel Sea Eagle is definitely one to add.

I had one for awhile and enjoyed it. Ultimately I did not hang onto it because I prefer deep carry clips, the blade stock was thicker than I prefer, and I like more belly on a blade. I gave it to my brother to replace a knife of his that I borrowed and lost, and he likes the Sea Eagle a lot.

I know, I keep thinking something is wrong, as the carbon fibre is only $4 more than g10... like, was it a bad batch of CF? did the resin not take properly, or what?

I DID NOT MEAN TO TYPE "KIKE"
I meant "Mike" ! Please no one take that as an insult. I was hurrying to post before we started a movie.
 
Congrats on finding your grail. I'll eventually find mine when I run out of money and it's the last one I own haha
