Of interest to Knife Manufactures / Makers lurking here ...

[Mark W Douglas]

After talking with a couple knife manufactures, I was asked which one of their knives I like the most. Thinking afterwards, I thought a good thread would be to list just the most favorite knife from various manufactures / makers here. Even though I feel companies already have a good idea of what their most popular knife is because of sales and other surveys, maybe to get the opinions of us knife nuts who play on these forums here would be kind of a good idea as well as fun. Info for the manufactures / makers who are lurking here

Mine are as follows:

MISSION KNIVES ... MPF1-Ti
MICROTECH ... SOCOM M/A
CRAWFORD ... Rolling Lock Carnivour with a tanto blade (on order), KFF (Combat Folder)
CHRIS REEVE ... Large Sebenza
SPYDERCO ... Military with CPM-440V
COLD STEEL ... Gunsite Folder
BENCHMADE ... Pinnacle, Vortex Axis Lock
EMERSON ... Commander
BUCK ... Hunter ( Master Series )
KERSHAW ... Ken Onion Large Random Task
SOG ... Tomcat, Pentogon Elite
ELISHEWITZ ... Stryker
WILLIAM HENRY ... T12CF
EDI ... Genesis I
GT ... #006S
OUTDOOR EDGE ... original Field Lite
CRKT ... Apache
CAMILLUS ... Cuda
GERBER ... EZ out ATS-34
CASE ... Stag handle CopperLock
LEATHERMAN ... Wave
SCHRADE ... Outback, ClipHanger Lg.

I feel these are the best knives you all produce!

Good choice the only one I disagree with is the Cliphanger by Schrade.I picked one up at a show a couple of years ago and now it sits in my tool box to be used for the dirty grunt work you don't want to use a good knife for.A liner lock with a backspring is an accident waiting to happen.The locking bar itself is not much thicker then a piece of paper.I also have a Uncle Henry 110 knockoff which is a well made knife. Hopefully Schrade will redesign the cliphanger in the future.
