S90V PM2 or GB

Get the Gayle Bradley that way it gives me a better chance of finding the CF/S90V Para2.

Then why do you keep using folding pocket knives for food prep;)?!? I feel like a broken record with this point, but the cheapest dollar store piece of crap kitchen or paring knife, if sharp, will EASILY outperform almost any folding pocket knife for food prep.

Actually, they do but they don't. Cheap kitchen knives lose their edge fairly fast and even after re-beveling and then giving it a microbevel to reduce chipping/rolling on the cheap-o knives I've found some of my folding knives to far outperform them on most tasks despite the difference in stock thickness. Course it varies and I don't use folding knives on a regular basis but the ones that work best are: Gayle Bradley, Lum ZDP, and Skyline.

To be honest, it's just a kind of ritual to get my NIB knives not so new. Once I mess with the factory edge a bit I just start actually using them instead of letting them sit around and maybe open an occasional letter ;).

That said my favorite knife for food-prep is still a China-made santoku from "surgical stainless" that I convexed and microbeveled. Oddly enough holds an edge pretty well, slices VERY cleanly, and has minimal chips and rolls even when my dad uses it for deboning and cracking joints/extracting marrow and such. Course the tip is long gone :o
