Hello, I'm new to this forum so I apologize if I posted in the wrong category, but I think this is it.
I have been searching for a decently small pocket knife that looks good and can be in handy sometimes.
I found a folding Karambit online and I think I'm gonna go with it.
The thing is that I don't know witch one of those two to chose :
a) 440C blade (2.9mm thickness), doesn't have a lock, weights 80g (15.5cm full length when open)
b) 9cr18 blade (2.8mm thickness), has a lock, weights 88g (14.5 full length when open)
The price is exactly the same for both.
I heard people that were comparing 440C and 9cr18 and said they are pretty similar and others that said 440C is way better.
What is your opinion, is there any real difference ?
I would like to go for the 9cr18 as it has a lock and it's a bit smaller, but only if there is not a big difference in the material.
If you are curious on how it looks :
