I have my eyes set on a Gen 1 0550, but I have some left over money that needs some spending. Recommend me anything. Price doesn't really matter right now because I'm just trying to get an idea. I don't care if you recommend a couple Kershaws or one ZT, but keep it reasonable.

Oh yeah, no serrations.

Snag one of those new Leeks 1660SWBLK. I just got mine today, and I love it! Stonewashed leeks are what's up.

Kershaw TiLT, Kershaw 3600 VOLT, Kershaw Tyrade, or a ZT0777 :D

For rizzle though.
The DLC JYD, ZT0350, ZT0200KW, ZT0700,

I do like the Leek. That's definitely a possibility.

If It's going to be a 0350, It's going to be one of the aluminum ones.

Get a Lahar if you don't already have one. I think they look awesome.

I've actually got someone that's willing to sell me one later on in the Summer after my job ends. So, I will be getting one of those eventually.
 
I would say try out a Knockout if you haven't already it's one of my favorite Kershaws or a Piston if that's more your style.
 
Recently picked up a gen 2 550 and I really dig it. Although I told my wife I'm done...for now, if I happen to see a Tyrade, Tanto Groove or a 0400 for a decent price, well, guess she'll be calling me a big fat liar ;)

I'm 15, so I can't get a "real" job, but I'm doing corn detasseling. Yes, I've heard how bad it sucks and all of that crap, but I don't care. I'm using the money for knives and a Wicked Edge, so It'll be worth it until I'm done with drivers training and find an actual job.
 
Does anybody want to give me some comparison pics between a 0200 and a 0350? That would be greatly appreciated.
 
Here ya go Daymon. Also, if you decide to spring for a Gen 1 0550, let me know. I might be able to upgrade you to a slightly better model :)

I have smaller hands (I guess I don't for my height, but that's just what I've been told) so I think the 0350 will fit them better. PM Sent :)
 
KE, good on you working to get what you want, it will mean much to you earning it. I worked picking various fruits and vegetables for a few bucks a bushel when I was too young for a "real job". It does suck but it should motivate you to work hard and find a better one.

Exactly. I feel like if I don't earn it, than I don't deserve it.
 
Okay, I've got $100 left (assuming my last two knives don't sell). What should I get?
