See if you can meet my Criteria, Its my money I spend it thats all I have $200 cash/debit I always buy from BladeHQ or Knifecenter

Here are my 4 Knives


#1. Zero Tolerance, 0150 fixed blade booth knife S30V DLC coated (all black)
#2. Paramilitary 2 Black Blade DLC coated DigiCamo G10 S30V
#3. Spydero Delica 4 All Black Black blade Combo Edge VG-10
#4. Benchmade Bedlam 8600 Auto Plain Edge 154CM

#5 Based on my previous purchases/taste above I need something that will fit with what I have.


Do your best Forum.
 
Try an Emerson... People doubt them until they hold them, but put one in your hand any you'll be in love. Maybe a Commander.
 
Cold Steel Espada. Take your pick. I just got mine in today and this freaking thing is gorgeous. Looks nasty and evil with a super sharp point, awesome belly and that wild sweep. At the same time it's still one of the strongest folders on the market with that Tri-Ad lock, a 7075 aluminum frame and polished G10 scales, or a full G10 handle if that's your inclination.
 
I would go for the zt 0550 or 0560. I have them both and i love them. Hard to choose between. Talk to dave here (kershawguy).
 
Spyderco techno or leaf storm. Busse mean street. Microtech utx-70. Lion steel sr1a or zt 056x.

Doubled on that. If you want a titanium frame lock at around $150-$200 there's no beatin em. I just got my 0550 and I'm in love.
 
Do you want another folder or a fixed blade?

What will be the primary task of said knife?

I have bought from bladehq and knifecenter, but why does the said knife have to be from only these places?

Ok, Id say a benchmade adamas folder to fit your criteria. But with 200 bucks the knife i would honestly suggest cant be bought from bladehq. Its almost impossible to beat a Swamp Rat Ratmandu, and at about 155 shipped from the Swamp its a great buy. I have several and they are excellent blades.

Id say the MS (mean street from Busse) would be a good buy as well but after shipping it will be over 200. And if you want to add any options like other handle materials it will for sure go past the budget.

The RMD on the other hand... You still get Busse's heat treating, warranty, customer service, and quality knife but for the price of an Esee 6! And i have had an esee 6... i traded it immediately, the ergos just are not up to par with the price. Hold an RMD and an Esee 6, and you will agree :)
 
Spyderco Gayle Bradley definitely. In my opinion, it's one of the absolute best buys when it comes to knives.
 
I am also a new collector of knives.

I have a few more than you but my favorite knives I have so far.

Folder: Benchmade Adamas
Fixed: Ka-Bar Becker BK9

You can get both these knives for your budget. I have more expensive knives, but for the money I love these.
 
I'd suggest getting sharpening stones over another knife. Perhaps some DMT plates or Shapton water stones.
 
You should by an Emerson Commander. The photo is of a Super Commander.
