I Need Knife Help!

[epr25]

Ok I am not sure if this is where this belongs. I would like to buy my husband a good functional pocket knife for Christmas. So if there are any knife guys on here I would really appreciate any help.

You will find a great selection of pocketknives as well as larger knives and cutlery at A.G Russell. I've had great experiences with them, they offer good customer service and decent prices.

And a couple of brands you might consider are Case, Boker and Hen & Rooster.

Swiss Army Knives are always winners .. Case knives are collectible, if you want to start him off... Sarco is a place I like to browse & shop for collectibles besides eBay.

I highly recommend the Wenger "Handyman" Swiss army knife. All the usual beneficial tools but with a few important differences - has a nail file (instead of second blade) and has a phillips head screwdriver (instead of that useless corkscrew). They run about $25 and can be found online, at Walmart, and many shopping mall cutlery shops.

you cant beat an "old timer " with carbon steel shrade blades

If you just want a blade, Benchmade are great knives. Coldsteels aren't bad, either.

If he's not a knife afficianado,
you could always get him a "Buck 110", which is the original lockback knife.

Sold here for $27:

The suggestion by Celtic is a great one. The Buck #110 is an awesome knife and will last forever. The #112 is the exact same knife only a tad smaller.

Always worth it to take a look at Spyderco. Most of them are butt ugly, but the performance for the price is excellent.

Okay, if he wants a clip on knife, Spyderco or Cold Steel are both great. If he wants a "Gentleman's knife" as my dad calls em, a small swiss army knife or a good Case knife will last for many years. If he wears suits a lot go with the traditional pocket knife with a blade under 3 1/2".

I've carried one of these for years. It's always with me.

And they are a great company to deal with

OK, just to add one more to the options this poor lady is now swimming in -


I have had almost every conceivable kind of pocket knife over the years. I didn't realize I was actually on a quest for the perfect one for me, I just thought they were all kinda' cool each in their own ways.

Then I popped $75.00 at my local gun shop for a Kershaw in black with a pocket clip and an auto assist blade.

I have arrived. I will never buy another knife again. I have also made gifts of this same model to my brother and a couple of friends.

As much as I appreciate the design and functionality of those new knives, I'd rather have an old Kamp King in my pocket. It just feels right.

Maam, I have used knives from this company for years for both work and play. Won't be caught out without a SOG Twitch and their fixed blades have excellent tactical application, if that were ever to be a need.

I carry a Swiss Army knife, which is available in a variety of models. The one I like best is the "Tinker".

A little stronger, single-purpose (no tools) knife is the Emerson CQC-7 with the "wave" feature.

I hope this is helpful.
