Kizer knives are my favorite. They are great. Just look at the quality. I bought a Kizer Drop Bear 2 Micarta, button lock, clip point, and it came in today. This knife is exquisite. I'm surprised more knife aficionados are not raving about this one.
 
I have a couple of Kizer’s (Spitfire and Spot), and they’re both very nicely made. Materials are decent enough for the price point, fit and finish is excellent, and the action is as good or better than anything I have costing much more. They do have a premium look and feel that you don’t typically expect from ‘budget’ knives. I don’t see a lot of raving about them, but I don’t think I’ve seen anything bad about them, either.

Me, I don’t worry about what people do or don’t say about a particular brand or model - if something checks enough of my boxes for me to buy it in the first place and ends up living up to expectations, I just enjoy it as much as I can. And of course I’ll rave about it in here just a little.
 
Welcome to Blade Forums. There are some aficionados in the know here. :)

I'm impressed with the Kizer G. P. B.1 aka the thuck........ Not a.framelock guy at ALL and this thing has me
hooked in the lip..🙄
 
I’ve had a few Kizers come thru here over the years. Most all have moved on as my tastes have broadened, but one lingers: The Kesmec, from several years back, is my favorite Kizer ever. Great S35VN blade and plenty of “tiger striped” titanium. That, coupled with a fine action, makes this one a true “keeper”.

I've had a hand full of Kizers and liked them all. The wife is still abusing a Towser K in the kitchen. I've always liked 154CM steel because of my Kizer experience.
 
Bit of a Kizer fanboy here. I've owned a fair amount of the non-premium models (including fixed blades) put out in the last couple of years, and have kept a few. Today's arrival was the Mini Mystic, which I'm rather smitten with. Too early to tell for sure, but my hunch is that it'll stick around.

The Cormorant was my favorite knife, period, for the whole time I owned it, until I gave it away to a friend's 17 year old son who was looking for an EDC knife and fell in love with it. It's only a matter of time until I re-buy. Probably based on what kind of upgraded version I can find.

Same. Ive sold most of mine but kept this one. The quality is incredible on it. I really like the design, fits the hand so well and they really packed a lot of cutting edge into that handle
