Hi everyone, I was selecting a plain edge multi-purpose knife, and after checking out reviews decided to try out the brand that I haven't dealt with, Spyderco. Looking at the reviews and prices, they seem to be good for the money and I assume they are made of quality steel. I was wondering, which of these 2 you would pick if you were me? Spyderco Street Bowie Black Plain Edge Knife with Black Blade Spyderco Bill Moran Upswept Plain Edge Knife, Black Thanks. PS - maybe other similar knives by spyderco? |

Only spyderco I use is a delica lockblade, my primary edc knife. Two main reasons I went with it was because it works for a left-hander and has the emerson 'wave', which works out well for me. I've had good luck with it; it has good VG10 blade steel which does pretty good. Never used any of their fixed blades though. Curious how you mean 'multi-purpose' knife..? Is this a woods thing, a defensive thing, or something else? |

Thanks for reply, John. By a 'multi-purpose' knife I mean one that can be used whenever I need to cut anything. But more or less, I was looking for a woods thing, man.

I carried a pouched belt knife for years, but found that with OWB holster, spare magazine ouch, and cell phone carrier, I was starting to look like Batman with his utility belt. My Son bought me a Kershaw 1550 St for my birthday. It's a fine blade that stay's sharp an is handy clipped to the right pocket.

I've had good luck with Raid Ops Kerambits(the Reaper model) some Bestech and Artisan Cutlery folders..the CKRT Buku... I like Spyderco knives... that Street Beat Bowie has a lot going for it,as does the old Police folder.

Haven't seen one I liked. Own two or three I don't like. Poor designs. |

I have a couple spiderco knives - I like the police model, and have a dragonfly that was cheap, but refuses to die. I carry a benchmade more often than not.. |
