I'm surprised that the Sebenza did not make anybody's list. I know that it is not marketed as a "tactical" but the Sebenza is rock solid, reliable, and sharp as hell! I would take one into battle or the wilderness in a minute.

Yes, the absence of the Sebbie is a surprise.

I'm also amazed at the sheer diversity of folders represented in the various lists. But, also, there are some folders that seem to show up again and again.

I find this really fascinating the huge variety of cutlery people are carrying and using these days.

Please, keep those lists coming! This gets better every time I check in here.:D
 
Just adding one to anyone's custom list:

Jim Hammond's military grade Cruiser.

Oh yea my Spyderco Endura's.
