Which one would you like the most?

75 bucks and not just day dreaming? Well, let me think what I spend my own money on and have been carrying :)

I would find a single blade 73.
 
This is the last couple months worth of sub-$75 knives. I'd take any of them again. (I do like the warncliff and pen blades.)

Schatt & Morgan harness knife with smooth harvest bone. I have one of these and it's just one of the best knives for the money. Great handle material and color. Super quality work on the knife.

It's the orange colored handle one. Super knife for the price.
 
I'd buy a Case two blade trapper, a twelve pack of Coors and a can of snuff. Then I'd go home and put a proper edge on it.
 
Case Texas jack in burnt stag and CV. Less than $75 at my dealer and in stock.

That is easy. Large Scharade Trapper in brown bone. GEC made, large two blade, fit and finish is stellar! Grooved/fluted? Bolsters, and zipper pulls. Available right now for $69!

I bought a Large and small for me, and two smalls for my boys (even though the 6 year old can't open it yet with his bendy nails, and the 2 year old has a long way to go!).

After some use, and convexing the blades.

The large Queen/Burke Barlow collab is on the list as well.

It is hard to describe the depth and "cool" factor to the bone color.

The small Burke/Queen barlow was in just a bit more, and I waffled and missed out. But it is on my list as well.


The all steel #25 Barlow from GEC in what ever color handle your prefer is right in that price range as well.
 
Case medium stockman. Easily found, affordable, pocket friendly, overly eager to work. And, there are a few options in the pattern to chose from. Sorry if I sound like a advertisement.
 
Case Large Stockman, Queen Large Stockman D2, or a Large German Eye Stockman for me, although the Trappers Bigfattyt posted sure would be tempting.
 
Case SBJ CV in chestnut bone. I want to see for myself why this forum was/is so entranced with that knife. Plus I want a Case knife that I can call my own.
 
Just quickly without thinking about it too much..or boy...does it get too hard to answer...
I go with Crow, but not the Gunstock, I'd rather go with the Sowbelly in Brown micarta, great knife...just fantastic for the value ( + )
 
Trand, you are not wrong about that Glitter Gold, bad acid trip sparkle:eek: really ghastly tasteless stuff:thumbdn: (don't think it's right etiquette to use the barf smiley here, but it merits it!)
I totally agree. Although, if I had the talent to rehandle a knife or had the will to send one out to be worked on, one of the glitter golds would be it. 1st, they are cheaper than the others, 2nd because its smooth acrylic, the bolsters won't have any jig marks in them and 3rd, 1 less glitter gold in the world can't be a bad thing.
