Quality daggers/boot knives?

I have
  • Fallkniven G1 Garm fighter
  • Boker AF Covert
  • SOG pentagon
  • Camillus CP75 (similar to Western)
  • Kershaw Trooper
  • Kershaw Amphibian
  • Haller Push Daggers
  • Nieto Boot Knife (a Spanish company?)
  • Gerber Guardian Backup

...and I like the Fällkniven best. It comes with a neck kydex sheath. They plan to make a belt sheath later (preferrably with boot style clip).
As #2 I would pick the Camillus CP75. Small, light and sharp.
The Kershaw Trooper is too heavy IMO but a very impressive knife. For many years, I've had a Trooper clone without realizing it. It has brass details and is extremely close to the original in all aspects. It's maybe a bit larger. "Jaws" made in Taiwan. Very sharp.
 
I think they have since been discontinued, but Benchmark used to make a pretty nice pair of dagger style knives, one a double edge and the other single edge. I think the dagger was called the Viper or something, and the single edge was the Ninja, which I had a couple of. Blade was about 4", mine came quite sharp and was 440C I think. The version I liked the best (and still have somewhere) has a sheath with a button snap which mates to a snap mounted in the handle of the knife. I found it to be a very secure way of holding the knife, and keep it indexed. Anyway, I imagine you could probably find one in the aftermarket without too much trouble.
