440C's is better than 154CM's
interesting all 3 charts disagree with this.

Best pocket knife steel I have ever owned was S30V(5 different knives). IIRC, there is a newer S35V that I haven't seen, but it is supposed to be better. I wouldn't own a 440c knife because I have seen them rust from being worn in a pocket and they don't hold an edge for shite. 154CM is the better of the two

That's about $25 more than you should be paying for that CRKT Fossil. You guys need to check three places first when buying a knife... Cutleryshoppe ("nutnfancy" free shipping code), Knifeworks, and Amazon.

KG,
Congrats to you for being so thoughtful. You've already had a lot of good recs and will get some more. Having said that, I guess since I'm a "traditionalist" I'll rec a version of Buck model 110 Folding Hunter. I've got one w/ the metal finish as you described. I don't use it as much as I'd like too, but I cherish it becuase my family gave it to me. This particular Buck doesn't have the finish you want, but I bet there's one out there that does (I just didn't look very long.)

Thanks for the replies!
Ended up buying 2 of these: LINK liked them so much I had to get me 1 as well
As usual, the OB comes through in the clutch

About to buy the same knife but without the serrated blades as I HATE sharpening serrated blades. I understand bnechmade will sharpen if you send back is that correct?

I'm with you on that. I like all blade. But that is one hell of a gift.

First post win
Knew about benchmade knives, but wasn't familiar with them. After you mentioned them and some other people agreed I did some research on them and like everything about them. High quality knife that looks great as well. And it's def not a cheap blade, but not crazy $$$. I dont mind paying a bit more for a quality product. Thanks Bama and beer

I have the full griptilian, have had it for about 10 years and still love it

Yea I actually ordered myself the full grip and not the mini grip only like $15 more.
Am a little worried it might be too big, considering its a little bigger than 8inches with the blade out. Comfortable in the hands and in pocket?

It's not my everyday carry because IMO it's a little heavy
I carry it the the most when I'm at the camp and has cleaned a many of deer

Gotcha.
Don't really carry a knife that often anyways and it'll mostly be when I'm in the woods.
Thanks man

Kershaw Blur or Leek. I've carried a Griptilian and a Delica 4 but surprisingly I like the Kershaws better than either. The blade steel is better on the Spyderco and the Benchmade but I like the assisted opening on the Kershaws better.

The lifetime warranty really makes it worth it IMO. Very high quality steel and a sturdy blade backed by a great American company.
By the way, your AVI is a damn bombshell. I'm distracted every time I read your posts.
