old'un Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 my every day knife is a Buck 110 Folding Hunter, well built and keeps its edge and its not silly money like some of the knifes I have looked at. Bought mine direct from Buck knifes, you can have the blade engraved….https://www.buck-store.co.uk/shop/knives?srsltid=AfmBOoqOqmALeCz031e-o4zf4mnZgYHufltD15LKGzjItLBICd70bjN2 Bit cheaper here...https://www.knivesandtools.co.uk/en/ct/buck-knives.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 As you know your BiL better than any of us, have a look at both of the above recommended outlets and choose one that you'd like on the grounds that he might also. Not saying anything further as I'm way out of order/date. Had a fall on Saturday night while doing a fox recce' and hurt my ribs - feeling sorry for myself and bored. A while back I bought some knives over a period which turned out to be just before my body fell apart so they've had very little - if any - use and have just had a look at the prices now. What's going on? OK, we can forget the Buck Folding Kalinga Pro as it's discontinued but looks as though it's a collectors item so perhaps it's good that I didn't get to use it. But, Guys, have you seen the prices of a Puma Duke and a Spyderco Native 5? There's no way I'd pay that so can only assume the current prices have well and truly outstripped inflation.

benbobailey Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Hello, Google for buck 110 or slightly smaller 112. Also worth a look is the opinel luxury range, ebony etc. Cyclair is an online company I have used several times, all good experiences, but find the knives you are interested in an Google for companies to compare.

Ultrastu Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 I only use heinnie hanes now as the choice and service is the best . Plenty of different categories so you can hone in on exactly what you want . I really like spyderco and real steel knives . Definitely look at the UK legal edc knives .as they can be carried all day . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 Things to consider that make a great every day carry knife . Folding Deep carry pocket clip One hand opening (either blade hole or thumb stud ) G10 or micarta scales A straight edged blade .so Wharncliffe or sheeps foot shape .they make sharpening much easier than a curved blade . Don't buy a recurved blade = almost impossible to sharpen well . A good steel will hold an edge well . I would recommend A spyderco ukpk or urban Real steel solis (it doesn't have a thumb stud but you can buy one to fit - I did ) look at the titanium version it's beautiful .
