Your best buy of 2015....

[EChoil]

Another year down...

What was your best knife buy or deal of 2015? Optional, your best buy of the previous year as well.

My best in '15 was another CS Ti-Lite in the new steel.

Best in '14 was a Terzuola Gryphon M-10.

Brad Southard AVO midtech...a great folder. Been in my pocket for a solid year...some kind of record.

This year I got a few Opinels. Great knives, especially for the price.

 

[Seilu]

Hinderer XM18, Strider SNG, Reate Torrent are my most memorable

 

[jstrange]

Belive it or not, the Kershaw Link has been my favorite knife of the year.

 

[Mike45ACP]

2015? ZT 452CF or 808. Hard to choose.

2014? Carson Tech Boiling.

I just started buying and collecting in August. Bought an s30v blur, a black leek, a pm2 and just last week an opinel 8. That opinel is ridiculously sharp. The pm2 is my favorite and hasn't left my pocket since I bought it. The leek got me interested in more warnecliff style blades. The blur had to go back for service. Next year should be fun

I believe it that's a great knife, especially for the price.

Great thread topic, EChoil.

I'd have to say for fixed blades it was the Bark River Aurora LT (9.5 inches, 5.5 ounces):



For folders I'd have to say the Spyderco Vallotton (this thing is sweet!):

Bladerunnersystems Premium Replicant.

Microtech L-UDT all black. I love this knife. The grind is excellent. Slices like a champ.

I'm kina jealous....

I go for diversity in a collection as opposed to one brand or style.

You're off to a very good start. Spread em out; all kinds of good knives out there.

Funny how good those 'less expensive' knives can be, huh? I have a few too.

 

[Cursum Perficio]

Best deal for 2015? Got me a ZT 0562 for US$144. And it's a great folder, very pleased with it.

 

[blade dude]

Hands down its the schrade 80t I bought for $5 that looks like it's seen hell a few times and has a broken blade. Now for the reason it's my Best Buy. Without it I would t have carved something in wood that got me a girlfriend and my second Best Buy was leatherman wave

 

[KyleMS11]

Zt 0900. Ever since i bought the knife, nothing else has seen pocket time.

 

[Jurgs18]

Spyderco dragonfly zdp189...

Turns out I sold most of my collection this year and am carrying a 7 year old strider SMF.

One really sweet 2015 score is my TAD Winkler belt knife. Very pleased with it.
