    Byrd Cara Cara 2 gets my pocket time. You can "spydie" flick it open, close one-handed w/o looking at it and it's stupid easy to get it shaving sharp. The partial forward finger-choil is what makes it so simple to close and better than the Endura, IMO. EDIT - If you want a "fancy" button-lock, the Sencut Watauga gets my vote.

    This is a solid list without question. Drop Bear and vision FG are excellent knives I own them both and you can’t go wrong with either, I will say the Drop Bear I feel has a better overall ergonomic experience because there are zero hot spots which the vision series does have a hottish spot with the clips.
    Qubit is also an outstanding knife with the right price and next level performance for sure!

    I have two of the Manix 2 LW. I have the non-coated Rex 45 version from Blade HQ with the white scales (they were out of the coated ones and I didn't want to miss out) and I also have the Blue scaled CPM S110V version as I wanted a bit more edge retention. Probably should have sprung the extra for the Maximet, but I was concerned about the small difference in toughness between the two and some say the edge is chippy on the Maximet steel sometimes.

    As usual, im always behind on the latest and greatest, but I just have to mention the knife that I picked up a few months back for only $35, open box deal on eBay, But I don’t think the msrp was very much more than that, and man,even though I do remember lots of you guys bragging about the knife a while back, I truly didn’t think I would be carrying it as much as I have been, but it has really been that good! The Civivi Riffle. It’s one that’s been in my pocket quite a bit lately..

Yes they are cool, but you guys are drivung the prices way up. Any folder then out perfrom a 20 dollar fixed blade is garbage , the bells and whitles are cool, but they will break if use for hard use beyond boxes and small tasks. Seriously, this has got to stop, they are literally pricing people out of decent folders.
