Which of these two knives would you pick, the CRKT FE9 and the CRKT Hisshou?

If you had to pick between the CRKT FE9 and the CRKT Hisshou, which would you pick?

 

[HwangJino]

Fe9 since it has a guard.

 

[evanPGH]

Hisshou because I love traditional tantos.

You could have someone put a turks head knot on that to give you some sort of guard.

Pick for what? Camping? Looking awesome? Kitchen use? Caping? SD?

Realistically, for looking awesome, but I would feel comfortable knowing I had a decently designed SD knife.

 

[Kwon Kwang]

The Hisshou. Every time.

Having owned only the fe9 I am a little bias the Fe9 is a great blade

I don't own either but I love the look of the Hisshou, it seems like it would be as at home in the kitchen as it would in your pocket for EDC / SD (tho deff. not my first choice of an SD blade its much better fit than many knives people carry for SD)

Fe9 since it has a guard.

+1

Not having my theoretical hand slide up on a theoretically guardless blade and get theoretically cut to ribbons.

Realistically, for looking awesome, but I would feel comfortable knowing I had a decently designed SD knife.

Since: 1) the chances of using a knife for SD are infinitesimally small; and 2) unless you are trained in a specific type of knife based SD, it really doesn't matter what knife you use for SD, just get the one you think is awesomer looking! :thumbup: We can't tell you which one that is.

Get the cooler one and enjoy!

Everyone has their own point. I feel like I'm going to "strongly hint" one of these towards the family for Christmas, ha.
