once you find one that suits your taste, very rare you will go for other brands.

unless the other brand is famed for other utilities, then its a diff story.
like me, i am goin the way of the spyderco for folders
if i wanted a multipurpose tool, i would go for victorinox or something. else if i want to continue collecting folders, i would only stick to one brand

the BM fillet knife is great
wanna cut up some tuna

DARKOPS offers military specs knives n other tactical equipments. All their products are made in USA. Well, it also cost a bomb. Check it out!!!

looks a lot like the ER fulrum folder...

marcus

Yeap, more or less alike. But cheaper than extreme ratio (ER). Both are equally good.

next in line in my collection would be the SOG access card or some other card knives to put in my wallet

I have access to card knives, brands like tool logic, victorinox & swisstech. Let me know which u interested.

greetings all,no balisong enthusiasts?? hahaha well if anybody is willing to lend some idea's i'm trying to reconstruct 2 handles for my balisong knife... but is proving harder than i thought... i'd thought i'd come up with a more fluid design probably wood with carbon-fiber inserts?? hahaha it's just an idea but it's a project anybody who wants to share some ideas and thoughts??

seth, no SOG knives?

this one is superb

i prefer the card to be more knive than those with flashlights, compass, toothpicks and stuff heheh


Attached thumbnail(s)

Just provide me with the model number and i will give u a quote.

thanks seth, will do so after i receive my spyderco
any news on the fishing stuff?

Hmm no Ka-bar listed on the first post in this thread? I thought Ka-Bar was popular

Whats their web link? Post it here so that i could update it. U guys can post any knife brand link, i will take the afford to update it on the 1st page.

Ohh ya, about the fishing stuff. I am still working on it. Unfortunately my supplier only has knives, kitchen cutlery, tools, swords, sharpeners, lighting, outdoor, security, apparel, eyewear, ligthers, watches & gifts (manicure set). I will see if i can get other lubang on fishing stuff.

hmmmmm....... lightings? Like Flashlight? Can get a Surefire L1 cheap? Just curious that's all. Surefire in our country costs a BOMB!

Anyway, can you import fixed knives? Most knife collectors prefer folders than fixed knives. Me? I like 'em both as both of 'em have their pros & contras. Guys, wanna talk about it?

Surefire rox!! Oh man.. would be damn good news if your supplier has Surefire =)

Oh ya btw here's the Ka-Bar link

Well in my opinion, i would prefer folded knives cause they consume less space..

But as you well have said btard77 it has pros and cons too.. Folded knives may take longer to open in an untrained hand.. As for fixed knives, they require no unfolding.. Just whip it out and you are good to go..

Just my humble 2cents..

fixed blades i guess cos they are less practical than Folders... not at all worht the urban carry as we are used to, and if they do most malaysians opt for the easily replacable parang than a USD 500 custom
not that i have see one...

i handled a spydercard (discontinued) before back then i didnt like the spyderedge. now i regret not picking it up just cos the shopkeeper was slightly rude dammit

BTW Swaye, Balisongs: if you read Tactial Blades/Knives (there is a flip through copy in Borders Time Square, heheh) they have an article on Ultimate balisong with proper grips at the side and slippy handles and S grind grips and whatnot. I personally dont do the balisong thing cos firstly i cant handle the whole non lock thing and that utilitairian wise its hard to reason... moreso secondly i cannot flip without looking like a fool. basic windmill is my "trick" heheh
