Between the CQC-8 and CQC-13, what are the differences besides the looks and the slight size difference? Do the satin finishes both make them silver? Which would have better serrations? Do the serrations cut smoothly? Is the steel featured on them good? Is the handle material good? Are either of these knives actually good? Where would be a good place to get these knives at a reasonable price?

I am deciding between these two knives coming from only owning a Cold Steel Voyager (VG-1 blade and zytel handle...)
 
*yes w/a satin finish both are silver colored.

*the serrations are the same.

*both are 154CM and its a good steel imho.

*handles are G10, again, good,

*both are good knives, i have 2 '8s and have had 1 '13, both are good but i kinda like the '8, i really like the '12 better than the '13 FWIW but its 2X as expensive.

*try newgraham.com they have good prices and a good rep to boot,

most any EKI is a lot better than a CS voyager imho.
 
I have owned almost every emerson production knife, the cqc8 and cqc13 are my all time favorite.. you are headed in the right direction.

FYI the satin finish is a non-reflective silver
