I must admit I find it impressive that you've both bought every model and tried to like them, but I find it a shade difficult to believe that there wasn't a single one of the 150+ that suited you.

Meh, if you have seen one crappy Chinese lockback you have seen them all.

Myself I prefer my knives to not have liner locks or lockbacks, open and close smoothly, not have verticle bladeplay out of the box, and not be ground so thin that i have to worry about the edge chipping when i cut a toothpick in half. Not to mention the cutesy gay-friendly names they give their knives lol. Noooooooooooo thanks.

I bet this one is twice as thick as that KKK knife you EDC.

I like Kershaw, had a Scallion I loved until I lost it, and am EDC'ing a Double Cross these days, but have a composite blade Leek that just came this week, and it's the first time I've gotten such a dull out-of-the-box blade from them. I wanted the Leek b/c I'm mainly using the Wharncliffe blade on my Double Cross, but this knife is just really rubbing me the wrong way. Would love to trade it for a G10 version.

Speaking of G10, I never really warmed up to the Skyline, either. That's more about blade shape than handle material, though. In fact, I'd gladly trade these two for a G10 Leek if anybody's interested.
 
Busse- Bought three of them once, all 3 failed to impress, did not come sharp, did not come with a sheath, pain in the ass to sharpen, none of them were particularly visually appealing, didn't cut worth a @#(%^. My experience did not live up to the hype at all. Sold all 3 and will not be looking back.

It was posted as a joke, get over yourself. I actually EDC either a Benchmade or Microtech auto, and a Glock.

That tip on that one looks REAL sturdy lol. What is that a reverse liner lock? ROFLMAO!
 
I have a 710 in M390 that just doesn't do it for me. Carries well and feels sturdy enough but it just hasn't grown on me. I also just got a Strider SNG tanto that doesn't fill a niche for me. It is much bigger than I had expected. Won't do anything that my small Sebenza or my CQC-7 won't do. Those two will end up in the exchange soon I think.

Oh yeh! I bet this tip is thicker than whatever it is you carry. You must not know a lot about knives if you can't recognize a liner lock.

You must not know anything about your OWN knives since spyderco calls that a "back-lock".

It just seems that you parrot what you read and don't really have any actual hands on with knives you bash. Just to educate you, tip comparison between ZT301 and the chinook 3.

I'm sorry guys, but I don't like spydercos either. The hump in the blade just kills me. Don't get all defensive, it's just my opinion.
 
Kershaw JYD 2 and Blur stand out, some others, can't remember. 95% of the time I'll just give a knife away if it doesn't float my boat. Gave away a Ka-Bar kukri once and that thing was kind of fun though.

Well, for starters, it was $250, not $300. And it looks like you sent me a fake because the box said Spydero ;)
