What are your thoughts on the subject? personally I have been using the SOG Seal Pup Elite for almost a year now. I won't say its perfect, but it has been good to me.

what about you?

I'd probably look at customs if I had to choose any. If Production, an ESEE6 is a great one to get started, as are some Falknivens, or a BK2.(ESEE5 is basically the same, better fit and finish/sheath/handle in my opinion)
 
I have heard allot about these EESE knives. I have never held one, but might need to look more seriously into owning one.

the only three production knife brands I would buy, you cant go wrong with any of them
 
lol after reading these comments i just have to ask... what about non-production?

I recently bought a custom knife from Scott Richardson. I should be receiving it in the mail some time this week. I am hoping that it will be, as Moosez45 said "my 'the knife' " but you know how it is...you can never buy just one. I just know that it will have to go on hold until i can raise the funds.

...But it never hurts to look
 
Alot of people don't like TOPS but I think they are some of the best knives out there. I have a DART and Urban Defender that I would carry without hesitation. I have several more but the UD is just amazing....
 
BK-2 for production blades for me, at least so far. Love the heft, balance, handle ergos. Had an ESEE 6 for a little bit, as much as I wanted to love it, I wasn't all that into it. Flat handles weren't very comfy for extended work. I think it'd be great if they worked some contours into the handle ergos, but as it was, it didn't work for me.
 
The Spyderco Temperance 2 and/or NWA BF Forum knife would be my two favorites.

I also have a Ranger Knives RD6 FFG that is pretty great.

Big Mike, you have always loved those recurves, no?

It's true my friend. :eek:


Recurves work well for me, especially in the size of knife we're discussing here. :thumbup: :cool: :thumbup:


And I love grinding those full convex recurves. :D



Here's another one:

From my experiences, I would go with an ESEE 5, ESEE 6, or a Scrapyard Scrapper 6. :thumbup:
