Id go with Cold Steel. KaBar and Spyderco are nice as well.
+1 on the Kershaw Leek. My favorite carry knife.Quote:

It's handy, and fine for opening boxes and mail and whatnot, with the assisted opening. I just have other knives I prefer if it is a knife that I may deploy in a defensive manner.
spyderco baby - Spyderco!
Cold Steel makes the most durable folders for that price range.
I EDC a AK-47. It has a thumb stud that does the exact same thing as the "wave" feature of other knives.
Get the Cold Steel AK-47 Knife for less at Walmart.com. Save money. Live better.
I actually just got a great deal on a new spyderco tenatious so if I end up liking it ill prob go ahead and order an American made model
Spyderco Sage 1 for normal tasks and a Benchmade 710 for harder use. I don't really consider either a defense knife unless that's all I have left. I don't practice or have I trained in knife combat.
SOG Aegis Tanto. Excellent! Very Sharp. Easy to open with your weak side hand.
The Japanese Seki City VG-10 are the same steel that was used for Samuri swords. They are great. Other good choices are Benchmade blue box such as Barrage or Griptitian. I don't like SOG as well, they tend to be AUS8 steel if under $100.Quote:

I currently use a spyderco delica FFG. I don't think you can go wrong it.
my EDC knives are either a Spyderco Harpy, a CRKT M16-14SFG or a Benchmade Stryker.
Consider the Ultimate Equipment M-1911 knife. I've had mine for over a year. Excellent quality, easy function, holds an edge, and you can match the grips on yer 1911 if you want to...
