Just was pondering some of the knives I've carried over the past few years that have earned my respect as a true "working" knife. Nothing fancy or expensive, but they do the job and I just keep on carrying them.

1) CRKT M16-12

2) Spydie Salsa


Just my thoughts, any others?

Spyderco Delica (served me well for a long time as an EDC)
Bob Dozier Straight Personal (expensive is a relative term and his knives are outstanding values for a handmade working mans knife, never leave home without it)
 
benchmade 750

It has lasted through 3 years of brutality and it still continues to open and close.lol
Actualy the little ball that is stuck into the locking mechanism has totaly worn out and the whole locking bar is rubbing on the blade.
The blade is almost 2/3s the size of a new blade due to sharpening.
I need a new one.
 
When you get a new one, get some Miltec (it prevents metal to metal wear and doesn't come off; It's actually reccomened by Benchmade).
 
Spyderco Delica, Endura & Police.
REKAT Carnivore & Carnivore Cub.
Buck 110.
 
Over the years I've beat the hell out of these three knives
-BMcqc7
-BM710 ats-34
-CRKT M-18 (still working on this one, but it's holding up nicely)
 
Is it just me or has basicly everyone basicly owned a Spyder, benchmade, or a kershaw as a working knife? My first couple knives were Spyderco, and kershaw. They were nice knives but inexpensive, so you wouldnt have to worry about doing a dumb mistake.
 
Oh yeah the actual question:

Kershaw Scallion (untill I was mugged in an alley)
Buck Hunter (Buck 110)
Buck NXT-1 (A buck One Hander)
Schrade Lockback GreenDerlin Handle

And my BM MelParude 350SBT will be the same as the above.
 
Benchmade mini grip 556, had it over a year and use it 40-50 hours at work and then at home, has not a single scratch on the handle after dropping off loading docks, concrete floors etc. Awesome knife.
 
Over the last two years I have really come to love my REKAT Carnivore Cub, Benchmade 940 and Spyderco Navigator. I feel all three have performed admirably.
