If your gonna go for $1000 budget why not go a little more and get a MSC Custom or a Chaves Redncion.

Would be a hinderer for me, either a production grind and spend the eextra on dressing it up with TI hardware and scales or if you could find one a Rick Hinderer Custom. Check the knife hunter out

Microtech Socom Delta series. No need to spend hundreds more on a similar quality blade.

I'd be looking at Hinderers, Mick Strider Customs, Emerson Customs to start. $1k is high end for a mid tech and a bit low for nice customs so you're sort of in a grey area.

I think you made a great decision buying multiple knives. Plenty of fantastic knives there.
Once you get above a certain price point, all you're paying for is the exclusivity and name. $1k is definitely in that zone. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

$1000 EDC knife? Whoaaaa

I've had many $400-$1000 custom pockets knives from many different makers. I sold all of them and bought more guns. Although I appreciate what goes into a fine custom knife I never had one that out performed my spydercos or benchmades. Factory knives perform as good as most customs these days. Hard to spend that kind of money for a tool that peforms no better then a $200 knife. Now as art or collecting pieces I can see but as an EDC I can not and I say this as someone who EDC'd an early Emerson CQC6, Kit Carson, Charles Marlowe and Allen Elshwitz(spelling?) folders.

If you spend a grand on an EDC you're overspending by at LEAST $600, probably more like 7 or 8.

I can show you a cheaper one that works just as well for transportation What guns do you own? I can show you much cheaper options. What watch? same idea... Custom knives are an extension of the persons wants and desires. if they want a custom to carry then why attempt to dissuade them from the choice. thats like me telling you a hi point will kill a man dead just as good as my p30 or custom 1911... its true bu t we don't all own hi points |
