If you couldn't carry your CRK what would be your second choice?

I tend to keep it local.

These are actually my choices before the Sebenza :eek::foot: Then from there I chop and change between production knives.
 
There are alot of great makers out there. Out of all the folders I have owned, I have had the most experience with CRK as I have owned 73 of them to date ( dont have anywhere near close to that now unfortunately ), and second would be Hinderer as I have had 12 of the XM's in all 3 sizes. For me, I like the 3.5 XM-18 the best of the hinderers that I have used. Though, the 3" version works great too. I found the XM-24 to be just a tad too big, but is the equivalent of a folding fixed blade.............So for me, I would go with my Umnumzaan as a second choice as I have edc'ed it tons, but if I had to go with a different maker, it would be hinderer.
 
My Spyderco Southard is my next favorite. In fact, I wish I had the pocket space to carry both. This is a knife I will NEVER part with.. If you don't own one, get one!
 
The blue Para2 with M390 would be my second. Sometimes I really wish CRK would consider this steel as it is pure amazing for edge retention the edge that it takes. However I would still rather use the Sebenza for daily tasks.
 
Scary to think I'd ever be without my beloved Seb or Umnum. But just picking this one up lately gives me comfort for backup...

If I'm not carrying my Lrg micarta 21, Umnum or 25. I might be carrying my Hinderer 3.5 slicer, s90v Para2, ZT 561, Gayle Bradley, Sage 2 and a bunch others but they don't get much pocket time:thumbup: CRK's are my favorite hands down though!!
 
I was feeling a little provocative today, so I snapped a quick couple of photos of my mistresses:

I'd take the Shirogorov out that whole bunch. I LOVE my Shirogorovs, well, I only have the Hati left and I love that thing.
 
Agreed BBQ its why it's at the top! haha you should try the regular model 95. They are seriously a work of art. Unbelievable knife!
 
I only have CRK's right now but love the 3" hinder and would love to get a Rockstead Higo or/and Shirogorov 95 CF s90v.
 
Hinderer XM hands down. They are my 2nd favorite company. I like the 3.5" the best, but the 3" is pretty sweet too. The 4" is a little big.
 
How about one of these?





I had to part with it but it's not forgotten... a great knife :)
