I'm a production picker knife guy, have about 30-50 knives, mostly from knife center, but not all, and when people ask me my favorite of all,.my answer shocks them, but it's the CJRB Ria.
I carry the Acacia every day at work. VERY slicey and tough so far. It disappears in the pocket. I carry the Pyrite light in S90V on my days off and I LOVE that one too. I just prefer a slightly stronger luck while I'm at work.
Hahaha !. I've been calling it the Fracking Freak !! I love it. The CJRB Resource is even bigger, badder, beefier. Re :- The Bellona, it was hard to warm to it - I couldn't reliably work the thumb hole. I added one of those Quik-Stud screw on thumb studs - now it is Amazing !! It certainly has attitude and is a fantastic slicer with its thin hollow grind. But the ones that have been getting the most action has been the Pyrite Lite and now its big brother the Pyrite Large lite (? Pylarge ?).
the CJRB Ria was the first decent knife I bought around 4 years ago, after an Ontario Rat II of course. I still have it, and it still to this day has the most automatic, un-failable thumb stud action I've ever felt. If you're into the skinny form factor with some old school vibes, you should 100% give it a try.
I can't stand the freaking pyrite... but that bowie is without a doubt a beautiful looking knife! wish they made it in something other than a button lock.

The anticipation for the Kizer list is killing me lol.
The Pyrite Warnie in S90V with stainless handle for $80 was a friggin winner. That is a great budget knife. Can’t get S90v that cheap almost anywhere.

of the CJRBs I own, the recoil lock crag is my favorite.
I used to carry the Ekko every day for like 3 months. That’s a lot for me.

Cool list Wayne! Have to go with the Pyrite mainly due to different blade shapes, steel and handle materials. Thanks for the video!
And of course, not a single word on the quality of the blade steels...
Still wiping my tears not seeing my beloved Pyrite Bowie. (Get it together, Wayne. ) Well done bro. Hehe

Nice review, some very good choices
Isn’t the pyrite basically a mini version of the frack?
Could you also do vosteed, kizer, civivi
They all look alike ...they need a new designer already
If those are their 10 best i wont ever be buying cjrb
No need to buy anything from CRJB.
