I have become partial to Kershaw speed-opening knives. Quick out, stays sharp, easily concealable. Gave one to the wife, and she uses it daily now.

Used to be a Gerber fan, but seems the quality went downhill....

I switched to a Kershaw SV30 Blur from the Fallkniven PXL I was carrying as it’s much lighter and frankly I am not nearly as concerned about beating it up (too expensive and pretty to bang up). Current one gets used a LOT and is stropped almost daily, sharpened weekly and will probably need replaced in a year but it’s been worth every penny.

Knives have saved my life more than a time or two and those of various friends and family members as well, be it self defense or removing themselves from wrecked cars, construction accidents, etc.

Keep a few Gerber EVO in various formats as throwaways, loaners, checked baggage knives, etc. Quality definitely down but for 10-15$ they aren’t bad
