 The $60 spyderco resilliance is now my new EDC. Retired the ZT And the civvi was just too light of a blade- same with the PM2. For me the resilliance was a nice size and thickness of blade. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By mojo7: The Schrade Uncle Henry was my Dad's EDC knife before he passed in 2015 and my brother gave me the Kershaw Cinder this past week in solid copper scales which is a pretty cool little knife. I carry these three things daily in one pocket and plan on doing so for as long as possible. https://i.ibb.co/ySMW8Gt/C71-F5379-C309-41-CA-A820-82319-BE6-E6-BC.jpg That's pretty neat. My Grandfather carries an Old Timer all the time. Not my style but if it finds its way to me I'd give it a carry. Although last time he and I were cutting up stuff he leans over "Give me your knife(PM2)" and he started blasting through things much easier |

Retired the ZT And the civvi was just too light of a blade- same with the PM2. For me the resilliance was a nice size and thickness of blade. If it works for you that's the main thing, we aren't against less expensive knives in general. It's just, well, China. There are plenty of US made Kershaws in that price bracket, many or maybe most with 14C28N, which is a damn fine basic stainless steel. Very clean, takes a very fine edge, and decently tough. Edit: I don't mean to speak for everyone, this is more my POV and what I've gathered as being a general consensus, though I could be wrong. |

Seeing what others like in the range is helpful and worth discussing. And discussing drinks and being keto |

Speaking of being keto:
I made brat patties and homemade fries, redskin potatoes dredged in flour and Slap Ya Mama seasoning. I decided to experiment so cut my brat patty in half, dunked one piece in buttermilk then the flour/seasoning, and fried it. Not bad, but not really worth the extra work either.  Oh, Old Forester 86 seems pretty good for under $20. |

It's also just a nice thread to make friends and shoot the bull a bit. Post a pic of that Resilience cutting a nice fat ribeye and you'll have all of our attention.
