What's your favorite frame-lock folder?

Kershaw Groove, well at least that’s what I’m gonna pick from the knives a actually own.
 
It really depends on the price range. Overall, I'd have to go with the XM-18. But it's not fair to compare it to say a Leek, which is a great framelock for it's price point.
 
my fav frame lock i own is my darrel ralph mad maxx 5'5"stilletto or my mini maxx 4" both are great knives, my fav frame lock of all is the hinderer '18 & i will own one of those soon i hope.
 
Another vote for the Sebenza.

One that has yet to be produced: Spyderco Military with steel liners and frame lock. I would buy at least three of them if they were for sale.

In the meanwhile: Large Sebenza and Bradley Alias I.
 
I think it is neat that there are a lot of folks that love Sebbies here.
 
It's a toss up between tmy PT and SnG...believe it or not my Sebe is #3. I'll give smoothness to my Sebe, but when it comes to ergo's my Striders win!

My favorite is one not yet mentioned, and I am a bit surprised, and is the Kershaw Tyrade.

Hi Allen,

Chris Reeve created and popularized the lock you are referring to. I purchased one of his "Lock 45", the "First Frame-Lock" 30 years ago.

At Spyderco, we've been refering to the "Frame-Lock" as a "RIL" or Reeve (style) Integral Lock. We feel that we could at least give the man credit for his creation.

Just a thought to share.

:thumbup: Very nice! :thumbup:
 
Kershaw Tyrade is a great titanium framelock for the price. For me it is a keeper.

Keep thinking of a Bradley Alias I
