I need suggestions on a good automatic that can take a beating and still be reliable. I don't need anything fancy just something that has a pocket clip and will open when I need it. Thanks |

While I am a Protech Fan I like Godfather/Godson's and the earlier High Polish thin blades....Bad part is these weren't meant for any hard use and Protech figured most people wouldn't carry them.....So they made a piece of art and art they are. Newer Protech Godfather/Godson have a Thicker Blade to make them more durable and stronger...I have 2 Godson's with the thicker blades, one is an EDC Emerald Jazz/G10 and the other a Walnut and Black. Protech makes a plain black Alloy Handled Utility version of the Godfather and Godson. protechknives.com/showImage.asp?knifeID=97&backString=productID=10 protechknives.com/showImage.asp?knifeID=132&backString=productID=18 *Note, both the above knives can be found in hte $145.00-$180.00 range if you shop the net. I have never paid even close to MSRP for what would be around $2800.00 worth of Godfather/Godson models I am waiting on the right deal on the New Brend Auto #2 which is a smaller version of the Huge Brend Auto with I think the 4.5 inch blade. http://protechknives.com/products.asp?productID=28 protechknives.com/products.asp?productID=30 Karsten |
| I bought the Benchmade Infidel, but carry an OTF which I bought for a good price at Knives4Wholesale |
FWIW, the OTF knives they are selling for $50-60 are the same ones I see at every gun show and flea market for $10-20. |

| Masters of Defense makes some nice stuff. They have a great customer service if you ever need it as well. When the spring on my tempest fatigued after 7 years of opening I just sent it back and they restored it to like new condition for free. They even replaced the screw I messed up when I didn't use a torix bit. |
