Hi guys,
Just to make it unusual and a little change... what's your fave high end carry, that is NOT a CR, Spyderco, or Hinderer, or Benchmade for that matter.

Love all these but looking for some new blood. ;)

I don't have one, but I think a Bradley Alias II (or even the larger Alias I) would make a nice addition to this list.
 
You ask for high end and then cut out almost all of the companies that produce them?

I mean, you basically have left Lionsteel, ZT, Boker Plus/Tree, Strider, William Henry, and Mid-Techs...

Out of those, I would probably say the William Henry E10 or the Lionsteel SR-1 Ti. I haven't owned either, but they're up there on my "someday" list.

The ENZO Birk folder shocked me at how nice it is. I got the polished G10 handles. Very nice.
 
Curtiss F3, Les George VECP, or Pohan Leu Bluephin are my personal favorites. And, because of the regulations where I'm stationed, I can't carry any of them! It really sucks.
 
I'll never own one unless I get a really generous friend or win the lottery (which it pretty unlikely cause I dont play) but I've always thought Shirogorov's are beautiful *ahem bad ass* knives with their blade shape/ FFG.

When I'm back next week I'll take a picture of all those in my post probably separated into two pictures.

There are so many great folders out there plus many more I don't even know about.
