Do you have a favorite folder knife?
Question for you ^ | 5/18/21 | rebelbase`

Posted on 05/18/2021 7:26:44 PM PDT by Rebelbase

Hello FReepers. I am curious about your favorite folder knife. I'm looking for recommendations from people who carry for every day use. Preferably made in the USA and want to stay under $100 but will consider higher.

Do not want a cheap stainless blade. Need something that sharpens to shaving level.

Thank-you in advance.

Maybe a FOLDING knife is not such a good idea: https://www.kctv5.com/arizona-woman-finds-tires-slashed-and-a-severed-finger-in-her-driveway/article_cc05a9da-d593-511d-9300-a15af8a8235b.html

I use this everyday:

Kershaw Leek Pocket Knife (1660) 3-In. Sandvik 14C28N Blade

That is razor sharp and US made.

My EDC knife is actually a Leatherman Skeletool CX. I use it at work every single day.

Before that, I EDC’d a SOG Twitch II assisted opening knife. That sucker can be honed shaving sharp.

Kershaws are very nice, and you won’t hurt too much if it gets lost, unlike those trendy display box queens , (sebenza, koff koff)

My everyday carry.

Illegal in some states due to easily opened with one hand.

For all here, this has excellent toughness versus hardness ratings of knife steel:

Shortly after getting out of high school in 1974 I used some of my graduation money and bought myself a Buck 110. I still have it and carry it in my pocket or on my hip in its sheath. Sharpens razor sharp. I have many more knives but I seem always to default to the 110.

It’s not illegal anywhere.
