hey guys so like the title says im getting a few more knives to have fun and such so what i have on my list so far is

coldsteel kudu :its a $5 knife, and i think a good cheap rep of 4116 krupp steel which i want to try

spyderco tenacious: everyones raving about it, might as well hop on the bandwagon lol

kershaw skyline: another bandwagon

anywho this is the list so far, was thinking of adding another preferably something more streamline like the kershaw OSO sweet, sebenza, etc the ones im looking (these arent written in stone please suggest others)

buck vantage pro

ontario rat 1

coldsteel pocket bushman

buck 110

please no fixed blade, and thank you for the advice and suggestions
 
Byrd Cara Cara and Cara Cara 2, not any of the others.

Ka-Bar Dozier-designed folders (thumbstud models, Aus8 steel)
 
something more streamline like the kershaw OSO sweet, sebenza, etc

Sebenza and oso sweet is a funny pairing :p

I would recommend the Kershaw Chill. It is a different feel from the Skyline; slim and light but feels nice in the hand.
 
Kershaw Nerve - Sturdy, good ergonomics, great blade shape. It's probably my second-favorite under-$30 locking folder after the RAT 1.
 
I'd leave the kudu and the pocket bushman, just get a Voyager or don't bother.

i know the bushman is a little iffy but still its $5, i mean how often do you see something like that, plus its the knife ill most likely lend to some of my friends when the need it as most of them arent knife guys

Sebenza and oso sweet is a funny pairing :p

lol yeah i had my wish list in front of me and i just happened to have those two next to each other and their both streamlined so there you go lol


thanks for the suggestions guys the chill, cara cara/cc 2, voyager, subcom, and dozier are all good ill add them to my wish list and rattle them around a bit and see what happens, however im wondering abot the voyager and cc's as i thought they were discontinued and while im sure i can find them on my list of sites i normally go to, i dont want to have to make several orders at once, im lazy and like to one giant box instead of like 2-3 lol

You can usually get a Kershaw Mini-Cyclone or Needs Work on eBay for around $30. Those are both great, solid work knives.
