Weird article - seems to just be a sales pitch for four alright knives but not particularly useful.

Prefer my Gerber folding knife for daily use and my Marine Corps issue Kabar for heavy duty stuff.

Yeah, I don’t think I’d want any of those knives, and the article itself is pretty useless. I have an old Gerber folder that I’ve carried for 20-some years, and I just replaced a Victorinox Spartan after nearly 40 years. The old one was about half sharpened away and the joints were all sprung. And then I have an old kukri that I use for machete type work around the yard.

I own at least a dozen other knives of various types (not counting kitchen knives), but those are the main ones I use.

I carry a kbar folder,
It’s a lock back with a good sized blade.
Not cheap but not as expensive as the fancy name
Brands. Has a clip on one side and a loop lanyard so I can drop it if I need to use both hands. Best one I’ve ever used.
