 Good pocket knife
I'm looking at purchasing a good pocket knife. I want a decent knife in the 50-100$ range. I want something that keeps a good edge and is easy to sharpen. I like Bench Made. Are they really worth it?
What are you guys using? It seems as if they have a million to choose from.

 Re: Good pocket knife
Benchmade, Spyderco, and Cold Steel. You can get a good Cold Steel knife in that price range. Check http://www.poorfish.com/c-41-knives.aspx . He usually has good prices, and lots of promotions.

The Endura and Police SS. I have another one with a white handle and exposed ball bearing lock that I carry all the time, but it's discontinued. Here it is: http://spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=292

 Re: Good pocket knife
Kershaw tanto half serrated assisted opening. At academy or Wally world for about $50. Had it for years and best knife for the money. I have bunch of other brands including 2 benchmade auto folders. The blades are awesome but they are not as rugged as some others. I rather carry my kershaw as my go too knife.

If you're too big a cheapass to spend $70 on a Case, might as well not even look at Benchmade. A knife is a tool, worth it to spend some dollars and get a good one.

Like I told the woman behind me in line as I was buying a log, "Sure is a lot of money to just spit on the ground, ain't it?". And the shells, well, they just go up in smoke.

 Re: Good pocket knife
I carry Kershaw clip knives every day. I have a spring open benchmade and a Spyderco engraved knife I won at a roping and never carry. All are good knives. For the money the Kershaw is a good purchase. It don't hurt to lose it quit as bad.

 Re: Good pocket knife
I like a Gerber and have never had any issues with them. Hold an edge just fine and easy to resharpen.
