Knife group for budget friendly knives

Or when it starts to fall apart. Generally the knives outside the budget range are built to last a lot longer with everyday use as well. To me, its worth the extra money for a higher quality tool. There is a point of diminishing return, but staying somewhere in the middle works for me. I think a lot of it goes toward pride of ownership, which non knife knuts really don't care about, but the members here for the most part do.

Yeah, but you can buy a $30.00 knife that has a great warranty. I'll use the Buck Vantage Select Small in 420HC for an example. It comes with the "Buck Forever Warranty"- should the thing fail for some reason, other than due to user error or misuse. Then they will repair or replace the knife based on their own inspection.

It really won't in some cases, especially fixed blades. I've seen people do horrendous things to knives that would snap lower quality blades or make their edges unusable, but the higher quality knife handled it like a champ.

Sorry, I had EDC folder's more in mind when I made that statement.

I agree. That's the great thing about buying a budget knife from a quality company. And when you're ready to go to the next level, Buck can help you out with that too!

Gl. You'll just end up buying a fake cold steel with your extensive knowledge.

I don't buy fake cold steels. Nor do I own any. No need to be a smartass. Consider your ass blocked.

Yeah nothing against Wally World it aint bad but the bay is full of counterfeits not that everything is but you need a sharp eye to spot them.

I know the legit dealers on ebay from fakes through 10 years of experience shopping and selling on there. I deal with companies I know from personal experience like Ecop and Atlantic cutlery. I do not even do bids due to those who get fake Spydercos and auction them as legit. I also deal with Smokety mtn knife works.
