Bradley Alias I - Plain edge larger version.
Mcusta tactility- VG-10 damascus blade with black micarta handle.


Having a hell of a time deciding between these two for my next knife... Thoughts and opinions are welcome.

*Especially from those who have one or the other or both.

any particular reason for these two? If its for a dress knife id go Mcusta all the way, for edc Bradley Alias
 
no particular reason I'm just stuck on which to buy next.... both will be for EDC... I'm not crazy about the one year warranty on the mcusta though.. but it sure looks better.
 
Well, the Alias is the more typical EDC blade. Definitely a nice piece; S30V, Ti framelock, made by Benchmade. The Mcusta is something more rare and unusual. For pure utility, I'd go with the Bradley. But if you already have something similar and want something to diversify your collection, go with the Mcusta.
 
I'd also recommend the Bradley Alias for EDC. You won't be disappointed.
 
+1 on the Bradley.

The damascus on the Mcusta, though it looks very nice, will start to wear off/fade after use. In my experience all clad damascus-styles are prone to this. If you plan on EDCing the knife, I'd go with one I wouldn't be afraid of messing up.
 
I really like the Tactility. Though mine is the regular VG-10 with the spydie-style hole. Tip-up, discreet carry. Very solid and smooth for the price. One of the few knives I own that I feel should cost more.

Alias- would be no hesitation for me. Mcusta is nice too. But I would sure pick Alias first.
 
Well looks like I'm leaning towards the Bradley Alias I in plain edge stonewash finish....having a hell of a time finding it in stock anywhere lol.
