Any Benchmade models like the Shoki that come with a clip?..

[DougNg]

This is my next one when it comes out

Not sure what I'm going to do with it, but I want it

Shoki comes w/ this:

Anyone know of a nice boot knife? I've always had my eye out for one to stick in my Wescos.

d666: I know, but I need a clip on the knife itself…

Found myself looking at the Reeve Mnandi again...

I actually used to really dislike the way Spydercos looked (actually, still kind of do), until I got a Persistence and an Ambitious a couple months ago for our two cars (to put into the emergency kits). At 30 bucks a piece, hard to go wrong, right?

Was really impressed with the build quality and THAT EDGE. With a stropped edge, competes with some of my full custom knives

My son bought me one of these for Christmas

It's really unusual I get knocked on my ass with the quality of a knife, but this one has done it at 1/4 the price of a Sebenza

A US made Spyderco like this one Doug has just posted will be my next step up from my Chinese made C148CPGP, which I use every day of the week and it still sharpens up like new.  Locks well, love it.  My only gripe is that it folds up a bit wide.

[DougNg]

A Delica would be a step up…the Native 5 is many steps up

[Mild7]

Thanks Doug, will look into a Delica.

[DougNg]

It's a great knife for $50. If you're in the States, Howe's knife shop has them in black at a very good price with free shipping

It's great for pocket carry, very light, and the ergos (while the knife isn't pretty) is spot on

The edge was uneven though, I had to reprofile (the back was at a shallower angle than the tip). Bugged me

My Strider SnG. Old pic from when I first got it. Couldn't be arsed to take a new one. Its my EDC.

[DougNg]

Nice, I still have two Striders, an Airwing and a ZM. They don't get much use but they're cool

For anyone else that also loves Swiss Army Knives:

Dang sahn!!!!

Beauts… So jealous of that Mnandi... How easy is it to open the Mnandi compared to the Sebenza?..

[derivative666]

Sebenza is obviously easier to open but, the Mnandi opens very easily. My biggest issue is I have very large hands but, I can easily open it with one hand. It is significantly smaller than the small sebi. However it is no slouch very very sturdy!!!

[Seul]

Thanks.

Just packed up my Sebenza… Going back to Idaho for the full spa treatment, new cord, and new clip... I noticed I first contacted them in August... Simply can NOT miss this knife... Also not sure I can do a whole month with the Kershaw Scallion...
