Looking for a tacticool mall ninja knife.

You can grab a nice blackened CRKT M21-SFG for under $80. Good blade steel, and pretty hefty. Plus it's sooo much fun to flip open. :)

In summary, I'm looking for a ZT0500 MUDD for under $50, any suggestions?

Um......isn't that a Kershaw RAM

EDIT: Dammit, I got beat to the punch. I think I am with the other guy. Get an ET and a box of bandages. It is a fun knife and you will cut yourself.....but, that's half the fun.:D

I've always been interested in the E.T. as I am a huge Kershaw fan (almost exclusively). But I always end up getting something else instead, a free one would be awesome though :thumbup::D

That was my first instinct as well, but they don't seem to have any blackened tanto blades that are plain edge :( Just realized we live in the same city :D

I was being serious with my Mantis suggestion. Not all of their knives are expensive.

I can't think of anything more flashy looking for $50. If you're going for "whiz-bang-badazz" looks, that's what Mantis is all about. Some of them do look cool, and would be more than adequate for "fiddling with while watching TV" duty.

I do appreciate the suggestion, it was a good one, unfortunately none of them were quite what I'm looking for (aside from the expensive one).

Hehe, ya I think I'll pick up a 2nd RAM when the new cheaper one comes out (assuming that it does).

Wow, that's a lot of options for not a lot of cash. Nothing jumped out at me though. But I don't think I could ever bring myself to buy something from that website anyway, I almost feel dirty just looking at it.

I realize now that I actually had a pretty specific style in mind. Black blade, tanto tip, plain edge. Cold Steel Recon 1 would be perfect except for the price. Maybe I'll stretch the budget and just get something that's actually decent, I'd probably regret wasting money on something that I know is junk anyway.

Since S&W has been mentioned a few times , I'll recommend a specific model , CK44CS Bullseye Extreme Ops.

It comes in a variety of styles, including a Tanto and a bolstered version.

This knife weighs about 11 oz's and has a blade that abouts 1/8th" thick at the spine. The G10 scales are black , but from the side you can see alternating layers of red.

You'll need big hands, it's a huge knife. It doesn't have a clip , but then again it probably wouldn't carry well in the pocket..... it comes with a nice belt sheath.

All this for $30.00

I bought one to satisfy my mall ninja craving.

How about a Benchmade Vex Tanto. Tanto blade, black or dark blade, plain edge. About 40 dollars at Bladeworks. Probably a decent knife to boot. No auto though (sad).

Hmmmm, now that just might be an idea! I've been meaning to try out a Benchmade for a while, although that's probably not the greatest example of one.

I'm surprised how hard it really is to find the combination of tanto, black blade, plain edge.
