    Which knife of yours has the most satisfying thwack when opening. Mine is between my Thorburn L44 and Shiro 111. I think the Shiro is my favorite. Something so satisfying hearing that loud hollow Thwack when it opens. What’s your favorite?

    For me , it's my Spryderco Military and Vallotton Sub-Hilt. Incredibly satisfying sounds.

    Hands down... If my hand is wrapped around the backside of the knife it is an authoritative KNOCK

    Either the Techno 1 or the Xm-18 3.5. The Techno is the loudest when flicked hard.

    I actually like the sounds a lot of knives make. Then again, I also find joy in ASMR. I don't know if that makes me a connoisseur or a junkie. :p

    It might be more of a "kerchack" than a "thwack" but I really like the Civivi Naja.

    I find this mantra is pretty satisfying.
    When you don't lube the pivot it also has this metallic noise to it that I like. Check it.

    Got many more other honorable mentions
