    CRKT Swindle. Sweet little knife, so smooth with the ball bearings!

    I'll post some pics of my EDCs I have about 8 I alternate through. My girlfriend tells me I have a problem because I spend more on knives than her.

    I was never into buying expensive knives. I always bought the $10 Army/Navy/Marine ones off ebay and then I came across these.

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Desert-Camo...845744?pt=US_Knives_Tools&hash=item53ed7f9030

    I got mine in black which I don't see available anymore, but its much heavier, thicker and stronger than the flimsy military supportive ones.

    I've had it for probably 3 years no, some of the black has worn off but no screws have fallen out or anything.

    I like a lot of the knives you guys have. No way I could whip one of those out in the office though without a few frightened glances. That's why I picked the spyderco dragonfly 2 for my edc. Great knife, a little comical looking and much less threatening than some of these other blades.

    http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=610

    Highly recommend for those of you who need an edc in the city.

    I know this is the "folders" section but I can't help it.

    [​IMG]

    I ordered one of these. It's the Benchmade Hunt Series 'Saddle Mountain Skinner'. Should be a great addition to the fleet.

    If you want something to get a splinter out or cut the tap of your new shirt, get a folder. If you are going to defend yourself or actually "use"the blade, get a fixed blade

    I love my Gerber knife. It's only a 3" blade and it's nothing fancy but it's lasted me a couple years. I use it for everything and always have it hanging in my pocket. Only cost $25

    I don't know much about knives other than I have a good one

    Got it on closeout for $100 when they replaced it with the current version with plastic scales.

    I've seen some nice folded strider knives. Do they make fixed blades?
