persistance or junkyard dog?

My honest opinion is to forget them both, spend a little more and get a FFG or Waved Delica, you won't regret it.

I share this opinion. May also help to look up a trainer in your area who understands defensive applications of the knife.

I hear a gentleman by the name of Ray Floro works out of Australia. You might want to pick his brains too.
 
Throw my name in the hat for he JYD I or the JYD II.

The Persistance is a nice little knife, but the JYD series are both little tanks.

This knife will be mainly edc but it will be a placeholder defensive knife until i buy a CS Spartan,and if i remember,the spartan has a wave-like feature?
 
At the moment a JYD 2 is out of my price range and the spartan will be for my birthday which is less then a month away.Looks like im gonna be getting the JYD! :D

You'll be satisfied with the JYD! :thumbup: Too bad you're not in the US and could pick up a Ti Framelock JYD 2 blem from Kershaw Guy. They're awesome.
 
Yeah i know.If i lived in the US i would be enjoying the simple pleasures in life.........like auto knives!:D

I hear ya, I have a handful of autos 3 Italians, 1 German and 1 unknown. I bought them a few years back - having almost succumbed to that addiction.

They're fun to snap - snap - snap but to me they're not very rugged, usually get blade play right away, they're heavy for what you're getting (blade wise) maybe not some OTF models (but I don't like otf's). I like minimum 9"+ picklocks, swing guards, leverlocks.

For me, to pull an auto, deploy it and bring it to ready takes me a LOT longer than pulling a small fixed blade or any of Spyderco or Benchmades out & doing the same thing. Waved knives are crazy fast openers too! :D
