I have posted many times on the attributes of AUS8. I just received an awesome AUS 8 folder. The Boker Trance! My AUS8 knives are the sharpest of all my knives without exception.

I love Spyderco Enduras and Delicas those to me are simply THE best folders around. However, I would love one is AUS 8, that is also flat ground, and for a cheaper price.

What are some of your favs in AU8?
 
He he...i really dig the Boker Wharcom.....although i had the AUS8 blade swapped out for M2 :).

Also have a CRKT M4 that's gonna keep the AUS8...great steel for a user i think.
 
I have a couple Al Mars in AUS8. They get lots o love.

You guys have covered everything I was going to mention. An older Endura, Al Mar Hawk, CRKT Model 4, Subcom & Subclaw...all great knives.
 
Wow!

How'd you do that?

Compliments of Chase Axinn. I had him work on the little guy by replacing the blade with an identical one made of M2, while he was at it i also had him replace the the thubstud with some snowflake obsidian ones and last but not least replaced the single scale with one made of water buffalo.

It really looks nice.
 
I'm not a fan of AUS8. I like something that will hold an edge longer.

But anyway, my favorite AUS8 folder is my Ti-Lite. It never gets used, though.
 
The Trance is an awesome knife, probably the one I edc the most :thumbup:.

Gotta love the KaBar Doziers.
Less than $20 and they do a pretty fair job on the AUS8. Decent little :thumbup:lockbacks.
The Large Dozier runs about $25 and is good as well.:thumbup::thumbup:

Would you mind posting a pic?

Thank you.
 
my 1st and fav knife is the crkt m16-10k. its small and lightweight and can open it quickly with one hand using the flipper
 
I love the Trance. My back pocket contains one of the following:

Small Classic Sebenza
Buck Mayo TNT
Boker Trance

I could buy 18 more Trances for what I paid for the Buck and Sebenza. :p

For $20-25.....the Trance is hard to beat.

Yeah! I tend to under rate AUS8 but everytime I get one or use one I am pleasantly surprised.
