Hey guys im looking for a nice fixed blade knife for backpacking and general outdoor use. This will be my first fixed blade. I might be willing to spend up to $150 if the knife really floats my boat but really want to spend around $125 or so.
Im not as educated on fixed blades as I am on folding knives. Mainly what im going to use the knife for is batoning and wood prep, and killing zombies possibly.
Ive looked at getting something along the lines of a Ontario RAT 5, ESEE 4/5, or even the new ESEE Laser Strike. Ive also considered getting a Becker.
I know you cant go wrong with any of the ESEE options but Im more wondering about some of the smaller companies that I dont know of. I see so many nice fixed blades on here and I have no clue who makes them or anything.
Id REALLY appreciate the help guys! Im really excited to finally get my first fixed blade!
Im gonna be ordering tomorrow and Im also going to be getting a Spyderco Para 2, a new 4sevens light and a new pack! Im so excited!
THANKS GUYS!
