Hi guys! I don't post much but I'm a knife fan. I am buying a knife in may and I've narrowed it down to 3 but I can't decide between them. I want a large knife that folds. Doesn't really need to be practical. I have my normal EDC ones so this one will mostly be for fiddling with and showing people. Here are the choices:
Cold steel spartan
Cold steel rajah 2
Spiderco resilience

I'm open to other options too. Basically I want a large and in charge folding knife that is fairly inexpensive.
 
Rajah II

Out of those 3 options, either of the Cold Steel's would fit the role you're looking for.

Have you considered a Benchmade 860? Or a Spyderco Manix 2 XL? They're both on the larger side of pocket knives and would be more fun to fiddle with because of the locking mechanisms.
 
Maybe not what your asking for but balisongs is a folder, and realy fun to mess around with, untill you get cut:)

Get a Bradley Kimura, around 100$
 
I'd rather show something a little nicer, like the Cold steel Rajah 1 which I had (and sold) but I heard that the Cold steel Rajah 2 is as tough. I'd go with the Rajah 2. :thumbup:
 
Bump. Anyone else?

If practicality and functionality are not real concerns, and this is a knife for "showin' off"...then just get the one you think is coolest looking. :thumbup: Those are fine knives...they are not going to randomly explode on you or something.

Get the awesomest one. I don't think anyone here can tell you what you think that is. :)
 
rajah 2 for sure, surprisingly it its comfortable in carry.... if you know how to carry it ;)
 
I can't comment on those two particular Cold Steel Knives.

But I have a Cold Steel Large Voyager CLP Point and its awesome for the money.

And I also have a Pimped Spyderco Resilience w/Re-Profiled Tanto Blade.

The Resilience is a nice large folder and really is an amazing choice.

Out of the three you mentioned the Spyderco is def my choice.
 
My choice was instantly the Spyderco Gayle Bradley. In CPM M4 steel, you have to work hard to beat it, and you'll see a bunch of them ANIB on the Exchange for $140 or so.
 
all of those are very different in a lot of ways. i think the aprtan has more charachter because of the handle texturing and the blade gives the eyes something to do, but last night i got my friend the raja 2 and me a spartan and honestly i think we both may add the others knife to our collection at some point. just get which one you cant stop thinking about that excites you the most over a longer period of time
