I buy all three.
I do so because reading the information offered gives me an idea as to all that is going on.
I beleive that one can gain a great deal from reading between the lines.
And the photography and ads give me grist for my designing and buying.
TK is overall the best I would say.
Blade is good for gentleman stuff and classic style knives, and like the Emerson articles.
Knives Illustrated is good if you are thinking about being a maker, and they do the odd really good photo lay-out of makers you wouldn't normally hear about.
