Hi folks.
It's been a while since I've been on here. Usually I'm looking for another new knife but this time's I'm trying to track down something a bit more special.
I had a really bad accident with one of my eyes, lost most of the vision in it, shittiest part is I was already legally blind. A few surgeries and a lot of trying to come to terms with it later, things are looking a bit better and there's some hope though more work is needed. I told myself I would get myself something a bit special and I think I'm finally ready to get something new.
A couple months before the accident I lost my mini cooked river. I loved that knife, even if it had poor fit and finish, and I'm constantly thinking how much I miss it. I know I could just get the same one again but I was hoping to find a special version of it. I'd love to get my hands on a gold class but that's just a pipe dream, even if I could find it there's no way I could afford it.
So I'm open to other options. I've been looking around but everything I like is outside my budget. I'm hoping someone here might have the lead on something nice for a decent price.
My budget is $500 CAD, I know that doesn't but anything too special but it's what I can work with. It has to be available in Canada, as such it can't be assisted or gravity. I'm looking for something under 3.5" in blade length, something you can deep pocket carry and forget is in your pocket. I like a clean refined look but still with some of the classic outdoorsman aesthetic. I really like many of Benchmades designs, Herman knives are beautiful, the Titanium AD20.5 is nice. That magnetic Winterblades knife, I'm not even huge on the looks but the sound it makes is amazing..but I digress.
I keep writing this and deleting it thinking it's too much but heck, here goes anyway.
