What are the top 3 knives of each brand (not custom knives)?
Based on quality, popularity,and basically when someone mentions this brand, you guys suggest this knife because it is what they are known for (presumably because of how good it is)

For example..

Benchmade
1 Knife 1 - durable, good price...etc.....
2 Knife 2 - great edc knife, lightweight, etc....
3

Spyderco
1
2
3

Sog
1...

Kershaw

Buck

etc...

Etc.....

Doesn't have to be 3 though, could just be one. Thanks for any help.

Wow, thanks for the replies so far.
You guys really helped me to get started on which knives to look at from so many different choices.

So far there seems to be a consensus for the popularity of

Spyderco - Military
 
a little while back on the Benchmade forum, we had an informal run-off of the most popular BM knives. the final round was the 710 over the 940 so those are obviously the two top ones as considered by true BM lovers. the 806 must be mentioned as well
