Which would you keep?

Spyderco Paramilitary- Satin/PE/Digicamo G10
Spyderco Ladybug- Purple FRN/VG10
Benchmade 42 Balisong- Spring latch
and maybe the CRK Sebenza 21 but in the end that is pretty replaceable.
 
my choice is

Spyderco Paramilitary- Satin/PE/Digicamo G10
Benchmade 551BK-101- Gold Class Griptilian/M4 Blade/Carbon Fiber Handle/Nickel Clip
Ka-Bar Black Fighter- 8" 1095/Kraton handle/Partially serrated

I'm simply not know how good is Sebenza :)

IF I was just trying to thin the heard, and didn't need to sell for money, I'd keep the coolest ones!
Gold Class Grip
Sebbie
and the warrior!
 
1) BM 42 - I'm going to assume you can flip otherwise might as well get rid of it...
2) CRK large 21
3) Either the ladybug OR one of the listed fixed blades (warrior or kabar)

Choice #3 depends on which you have more use for. I think you would be well covered in entertainment & usage with these three.
 
Gold Grip (Or Sebenza, but I prefer CF and M4 to Ti and S30V) as a main EDC, Ladybug as a keychainer (lots of use), If I lived where balisongs were legal then BM 42, but seeing as I don't then it's the Sebenza.
 
Easy
1) Seb
2) BM Gold Grip
3) Paramil

that covers the bases. If you want to trade a fixed for a folder, get the warrior for grins instead of the Paramil.

Thanks for the responses so far. This would be tough for me. I'd probably go
1) Sebbie/Gold Grip,
2) Sebbie/Gold Grip. and
3) Very, very tough...either BM42, Paramillie, or Warrior. Probably the BM42 for the fun, uniqueness, and collectability but I don't know. Para has the most practical value (but could use the Sebbie or Grip for same stuff). Warrior is unique and badass, H1 is great.

I realize there is a better way to list the results to make it more readable and comprehensive but it's too much work to go back and change it.
 
Keep:

  1. CRK Sebenza 21 - the best quality knife on your list - a classic for a reason
  2. Benchmade 551BK- fairly unique version of a classic
  3. Spyderco Paramilitary- another classic - more of a workhorse

Sell:

Benchmade HK 14440SB "Ally" - the paint will chip off and look terrible
Spyderco Ladybug- keychain knives are fairly useless
Spyderco Tenacious - okay, but inferior to the others - kinda clunky and made in China
Ka-Bar Black Fighter - like the Tenacious, it is okay, but there are lots of better fixed blades
Benchmade 42 Balisong- keep it if you are a flipper, if not it's a novelty
Spyderco Warrior - this was #4 for me, but I'd keep the Paramilitary over it, if only cause I'd be concerned about scaring the public with the warrior
