Please give me your advice!!!!

Aluminum is softer and can scratch and scuff quite easy so if you like your knives to look nicer longer then Ti or G10 holds up better. ER makes some very durable knives but they are very thick making them less comfortable in your pocket. the CC models Strider makes just slide in your pocket no problem even the Lego versions are very comfy.

Here is my Extrema MF0 with my lego SNG, the MF0 is one of the smallest knives ER makes

I think the lion steel would be the best choice I'm just not sure of the amount of quality put into the manufacturing of the knife that's why I asked you guys.

As far as production knives go, lionsteel's quality is right up there.

There's no cheap way to make a 3d machined, monoblock ti frame...
 
I personally would go with a Strider, but that is more expensive, but still in your price range. Both knives are great and will do what you ask of them, but the Strider to me has the looks, style, functionality, and just coolness that I like. Plenty of versions to choose from.
 
It really comes down to preference...

Both the sr-1 and a strider will serve your needs. It depends on what you're looking for as they're two completely different styles of knives.

Well what are the different purposes of the 2 knives? I want a durable beefy pocket knife.
 
The strider will meet your needs better then in that case. It's an overbuilt, very hard use knife with an excellent warranty. The lionsteel is nice, but imo it won't take as much of a beating as the strider.

The lionsteel is more sheeple friendly.
 
And what makes the strider so much more durable? I mean wouldn't the lionsteels monolithic titanium handle b about as durable as a folder could get?

I'm gonna have to disagree with this. The lionsteel is solid ti, has a steel lockbar insert and a very beefy blade and stop pin. Not to mention a very stiff lockbar.

I know you have an aluminum sr-1 but ive owned both and the ti version is in a different league.

Also I've heard tons of issues with strider lockup. Never heard of blade play on a sr-1.
 
Ok thanks. Because the lock bar is not stiff on my aluminum one, and has some minor blade play. The old lock on the striders had issues, but the newer ones are rock solid. Both are obviously well built knives, I guess I just need to handle a titanium version of the Sr1.

The zt0300 is a great knife, but not quite in the same class as the strider and lionsteel. Btw, sheeple are those unable to think for themselves, who believe whatever the media tells them and are non-knife friendly, et cetera.
