If you could only live with one knife brand...

[hunterjrg]

Pretty sure it would be Bark River

Which brand would you choose?... since this thread is titled "If you could only live with one knife brand...." not "If you could only live with one knife type..." :thumbup:

Me, I'd go with Fallkniven. Wide range of fixed blades and folders, in a wide range of styles, sizes, and materials, all high quality and made by nice folks. Even kitchen knives.

Well, I haven't used any higher end knives, but I really like the look of Esee's lineup of knives. It'd be between them and Benchmade.

I think picking parent companies for an umbrella of coverage is kinda cheating, but if permitted it is Kai hands down. Cheap and expensive everything- kitchen knives, folders, fixed blades... They do it all. If it was one actual brand (no parent company subsidiary loophole) I would have to take Spyderco because they have cheap imports up to high dollar pioneering designs. I have to have cheap knives and high end knives, can't do either or.

Cold Steel. In case nobody's said it.

And I can still carry my Skeletool.

Crk 100%

 

[AdamFuzzyballs]

Gec..more options, styles and each model is moddable to any desire

I'd have to say kabar, I'll never give up my Beckers.

so in this scenario you will never have a folding knife

Kabar makes folders, [emoji57]

Thou I do prefer fixed blades as that's what 99% of my collection is anyway.

 

[Bill1170]

It would have to be Victorinox, with Spyderco a close second.

 

[Phair12]

Benchmade or spyderco. Either one

 

[nwmetalbug]

KAI big surprise huh lol

 

[Gurb]

Case, Buck, or Ka-Bar and I think Ka-Bar wins out. I like the new folders the have coming and the fixed blades are more than enough for what I need.

 

[seanscumbag]

Al Mar for fixed, folders, traditional, and kitchen knives. I've never had an issue worth their products.

 

[snakedoc.ua]

Benchmade
I would like a esee also
Buck made me mad when they went overseas

 

[exmaxima]

My EDC knives are Spyderco, Benchmade and ZT, with the majority of them being Spyderco.....If I had to pick only one brand it would be Spyderco.

My words as well

 

[BOHAWG]

Spyderco

I love my KHHI scourge and american eagle khukri!!! +1 for KHHI ...


But really I'd say spyderco. They would feed my lust for exotic steels and with a variety of lock and deployment types as well as many collaborations with great designers (didn't see that the post said there couldn't be more designers just companies right?!?) I could survive with just spydies but damn that is still not a world I'd like to see 😭

 

[dalefuller]

I guess it would be the company that makes the knife I carry when I want a knife that'll go anywhere, do anything, and I never have to worry about it... Emerson.

 

[blade dude]

It would actually have to be sog for me because I would need to have multi tools similar to a leather man but I also would need fixed blades and folding knives so they have my needs
