Whats Your favorite pocket knife?


Recommended Posts

There are many brands of very good pocket knives. I have probably owned 10 different brands over the years and have not had any problems with the brand name knives. I have no favorites per se but buy them due to the size, shape and features, not by the name on the side of the knife. I currently carry a Camillus (subject to change at a moment's notice) but I have carried and been equally happy with Frost, Spyderco, Case, Buck, Kershaw, Ka-Bar, Ontario, Smith & Wesson, Beretta and Schrade. There are other brands that I own or have owned that I do not carry everyday but have on hand for hunting/fishing or other activities.

Lately I have been carrying the fast opening knives such as the Kershaw Leek, Gerber F.A.S.T. and the Camillus Blaze.

I carry a benchmade and have skinned deer, hogs, squirrels, you name it and my knife can cut it. After using it I just run it through a warthog blade sharpener a couple of times and its razor sharp again. By the way if you have never heard of the warthog blade sharpener you ought to look it up because its a great tool.

I prefer nothing more than a small 2-3 blade kife in my pocket. Currently carrying a winchester. For anyone that is unfamiliar with it, I want to put a plug in for The little hardware store just south of Spurger on FM 1092  It is called Motts Here is the website.....

The best knife that I ever had was a K-Mart Sharp brand knife. I could get it sharper than any other knife I had before or since and it would really hold an edge. I know that K-Mart doesn't have a knife factory so it was obviously made by a knife maker under contract. I am curious as to who it was.

The best thing about it was that it cost $10 new. I kept it for several years and finally lost it. I have had many high dollar brand name knives and most of them were very good but I have never found one that could outperform that old Sharp knife. It was probably made by Gerber, Puma or some other well known knife company and the same blade with their name on it probably ran about $30 way back then but the same knife without their name on it was $10 retail at Wal-Mart.

K-Mart's Sharp brand. I was thinking of the current "no K-Mart" era on that last sentence.   ;D

PS -going to fill up the protien feeders this weekend - again.

Therein lies one of the problems on south Texas hunting. The roundtrip to fill the feeders is expensive, especially now. You might end up spending more on fuel than for the lease.

I couldn't agree more! Quite impressive.

I too, carry a Winchester in my pocket. Simple 2 blade. I prefer a good Buck knife with lock-blade to actually clean the game.

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McnNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
