If youre a knife nut like me, your favorites come and go. Some people have their 'go-to EDC, some people rotate out their knives every day, and some people have a hard time choosing which to carry out of their collection pool. Before I discuss my favorite, I have to ask:what is your favorite BM knife going into 2016??? Post picks or comment below!
For me, it was a difficult decision. I took a break from purchasing any new knives for over a year (13-14) and quit the forum during that time as well (too many enablers lol). I bought my first home during that time and focused my efforts on new home expenses.
During that year, I used my standard BK M4 810 every day and was perfectly content until I logged back in and noticed the 810-1401 a while back.. After using the -1401 for a few months, I became amazed with M390s edge holding capabilities, along with its rust and wear resistance with every day use. The next knife that caught my eye was the 761.. Looked great on paper and once I actually got to handle a new one (fresh from the factory) at my local dealer, I was instantly amazed by the slim profile, F&F, and materials used.
After inspecting all the new knives of 2016, and utilizing my 810 for over a year, I think my final decision for EDC would have to go to the 761. For EDC standards, its a larger folder that carries like a smaller knife, and it cant get much better than M390/Ti. At this point in time, I dont plan on buying any of the new 2016 BMK's (even the 765, after much thought). I think Ill pick up another 761 instead.
