Best factory knife (edc) brand

[outlaw1961]

Since Blade Show is coming up, what are your favorite factory knives. Let’s say between 100 to 250 in cost.

I have many Benchmades, Spydercos, and other companies. I have one microtech and just got a Protech god son today. Considering the kershaw live wire next. My fixed blades are Gerber, esee, and several from TKell knives.

Civivi and Spyderco are my favorites. I see allot of new company's on youtube like Pickled Steel that look promising but have no first hand experience

I'm partial to thin folders. Used to carry bulky Cold Steels and Benchmades but as soon as I got a Spyderco I was sold

Benchmade Bugout gets my vote - everyday.

The Bugout is one of my favorite Benchmades. I carried an Adamas for a minute, felt like it weighed 3lbs in my pocket

Bought a Benchmade Adamas last year. Kinda big for everyday carry but I do carry it sometimes

I had a couple ZT's but was always afraid I'd lose them

I have an ESEE 6 that’s really nice and very sharp. My daily carry for the last ten plus years has been a Ken Onion Blur. Broke the spring in it and they said send it back and they fixed it, sharpened it and shipped it for free…great customer service! Think I paid $49 for it.
