I'm honeatly not much of a knife geek. I appreciate a good blade, but more for what it does in the kitchen, fillet/butcher table, etc.
That said, I have really gotten into kayak fishing in the last few years. That means I have a need for a good rescue/safety knife. My priorities are something with a sheath I can easily attach to my PFD, or strap to my thigh, or whatever, a knife that is corrosion resistant in salt water, maintains a good edge, can be quickly and easily deployed, and has a fixed blade with a shape meant for cutting everything from rope to fish gills to fishing line.
I really liked the design of the Spyderco Caspin Salt but it's been discontinued for a while. I had a Crkt Nekolas until SWMBO did something she can't remember with it. That knife had a number of deficiencies anyway.
Suggestions?
