I found the Delica more manageable and don't really need a larger blade for anything I use my knife for. I have a Gerber that's bigger but rarely ever used it over my smaller Buck, so when I got a Spyderco, I went with a smaller one.

SOG Trident. I've carried knives for years and this is the ultimate companion. AUS8 steel, assisted opening, a truly utilitarian handle, perfect pocket clip, thin and light and US made. Skinned and gutted a deer with it with no problems.

Eh whatever works for you. I'd disagree but if you're happy with it that's fine. SOG is not known for their quality and AUS8 leaves a lot to be desired

Yeah I saw that one but figured it would go up 20 or so at the last minute and at that point I'd rather pay the extra 20 and get brand new in box and also get it Saturday because I'm impatient bastard

The paramilitary 2 has some of the best reviews of any knife I've seen and watching the YouTube video of it, it looks like a real nice piece. Now hopefully I don't lose it

The Leek is a sexy knife imo, but the Delica definitely feels like a knife that needs to be put to work. Very satisfied so far.

Scott, what knife were you going to suggest?
