I need help in choosing between 3 fixed blades:

If you're "broke," you should be considering the Becker Knife and Tool BK-7 combat utility fixed blade knife. It's meaty, up to any task, and economical.

Say Heah Boys and Girls, After being in my box of least used knives, I found out that Serrations actually feather best, So last week I dusted the brand new never used Benchmade 156 CSK in D2 naturally it's serrated, I must of not been paying attention when I bought it on line. Anyhow, I'm stoked, It's a awesome user and looker, But be aware about that Bilt pommel, So far she's as solid as she comes, But one guy in here had a problem with that design, It might of been a fluke, But I'm just passing on what I read on here. But making curls was a pleasant experience, Plus the Serrations will stay alot sharper than a plain edge. and I think it's a myth that it's that though to sharpen Serrations, I just take very lightly the burs off the Serrations then do the other side and it's as sharp as sharp should be.

SwatMC,
D2 steel is a great steel for smaller slicing processes but IS NOT really considered a "stainless" steel.

The Ka-Bar Next Generations that I have are made of 12c27 cutlery steel and is probably a bit more of a "stainless" steel then D2

You understand that there is really no completly "stainless steel" if it has carbon in it's alloy (400 series). Series 300 stainless is quite stainless however there is none to very little carbon in it and is not hardenable.

I you really have to have a knife that is stain free then consider Talonite. Talonite is not very hard since once again, no carbon, however the carbides that make up talonite just seem to cut forever, even when it "feels" dull it will cut you. Just ask Ken Onion if he has ever gotten cut on "dull" talonite.

I guess that all of this is just to say...go with the Ka-Bar. It will also be less expensive to replace if it gets to rusty on you.

FWIW

I WISH I could talk to Ken Onion about talonite! That would be pretty cool.
