So are you a Folding Knife kind of person or a Fixed Blade Knife person, or both?
What is your EDC Knife?
So there are definitely pros and cons to both fixed blades and folders. Over the decades I personally have switched over to full tang fixed blades instead of folders. Knives like my Buck 110 are now in my footlocker, kept as a memento vs. utilizing it as a tool.
My folding knives like the Buck 110 were replaced by knives like the Ka-Bar BK2 companion, Ka-Bar Becker Necker, Condor Rodan, Tops Mil Spie 3, Oerla TAC OLF-1008, Schrade SCHF57, Boker Magnum lil giant, and a few skeleton knives.
The only pocket knives that I still use are the Victorinox Swiss Champ, and Workchamp XL w/locking blades.
Just remember, you get what u paid for, it is better not to go cheap imo. Below is from a google search:
An estimated 8,250,914 knife-related injuries were treated in US, from 1990 to 2008, of those Pocket/utility knives were 47 % of the injures (these were not from an assaults but induced from mechanical failure), 36 % of the total knife injures in that statistic was of self induced injures from kitchen knives.
