KnifeCenter FAQ #21: DCA’s Folders + How Much to Spend on Kitchen Knives, The Altoids Survival Knife

[@tobyhall1167]

I agree with the comment about the locking mechanisms not placing your fingers in the path of the blade. I wish more makers would offer more models using those styles of locks.

[@iamtoast3397]

As a knife guy that also likes cooking, I actually got pretty enthusiastic when you answered the kitchen knife question with "spend money on fewer better knives instead" 😄 so good to see! I find there are only about five knives I use frequently, and having those in good steel + a few cheap "the good ones are all in the wash and I just need to open this packet" paring knives is totally the way to go. Plus obviously you can upgrade as you go. 100% beats buying someone else's idea of a knife block and wasting a chunk of your budget on a few you never use.

[@knifedaddy5791]

Just made a chicken soup using only my benchmade super Freek lol

[@GildaLee27]

He's 100% right about kitchen knives: you really only need a few. Chef's knife, small veggie knife, serrated bread knife. Learn to sharpen them and keep them sharp. Store them on a magnet strip. These knives feed you. Treat them with respect.

[@coldsteelcollector808]

David C. Anderson is absolutely killing it. Rather than shilling the next big thing because what is stamped on the blade, he delivers real knowledge and expertise. Also, on the topic of affordable Hinderers, take a look at the Viper Storm.

[@tipandachris7814]

Really appreciate you taking the time to answer my last question. FOR YOUR NEXT MISSION, IF YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT David Andersen will be to find the best bang for your buck knife in the midrange bracket. The 100-300 range is saturated with some of the best designs out there. I know it's subjective, but I'm talking nose to tail, knife steel, grind/shape, handle material, ergonomics, fit and finish, mechanism, price, weight/length ratio, utility, reliability, deployment, and fidget factor. I leave it open to your interpretation, but I'm looking for a diamond in the rough. This message will self destruct once button lock folders flood the market.

Great FAQ, you did a super job with the kitchen knife set up. I retrained by going to culinary school after OTJ firefighting injuries. I've bought a lot of kitchen/restaurant knives and those were very usable suggestions that would work really well. Could even tournee some potatoes and carrots with that lil veggie knife. ;) I really need to focus and buy one of the Hogue Deka's one of these days. So many knives, so little time. lol

[@vonWeizhacker69]

Olfa Craft Knife CK-2 is also a good altoids choice and you can have replacement blades as well.

[@PoetFisherman]

Hey there, DCA, great series. What can you recommend in a hollow grind wharncliffe that will be regularly used on heavy cardboard, packing tape, pallet straps and zip ties? I'd prefer a stainless steel that will hold and edge long enough for a night's work on said materials. Fixed or folder though i wouldn't want a fixed blade to print much. A folder I would prefer on washers and wouldn't want to spend more than $200 on whichever one. Thanks.

HI David, great custom answers! :) I'm looking for a small EDC fixed blade inspirations, and since you like fixies, could you tell which model(s) would you take to the office, to the forest and for a road trip?

[@BC-ec5sj]

I am surprised you did not mention a mini-bugout. It is supposed to fit into an Altoids tin.

[@Ryan_the_tinz]

The question was specifically about fixed blades for an altoids tin. Though I would certainly say you get a lot more utility per size with a folding option.

[@sheltermonkey6065]

I think Mercer is the best value in kitchen cutlery, specifically their Genesis line. They are made in Taiwan. Some of the models are available in short bolster versions which I prefer, though Knife Center doesn't stock them.

[@jimkissell1620]

I want a pocket deployment knife that will be completely concealed in the pocket, I’ve thought at length about just taking the clip off an already existing pocket deploy knife, but I’d rather have a 3.5-4 inch tactical folding knife with a very short, small,deep carry, off set aftermarket pocket clip to get for it(idea is the clip keeps it in the same place in the pocket, drawing no intention to itself, and not using the clip to help draw it from the pocket) which of course needs to be pocket deployable. So ultimately I’m asking for a combo suggestion, from the ever enjoyable David c Anderson, which pocket deployment knife & aftermarket deep carry pocket clip combo can the suggest that will best hide the knife in the pocket while allowing you to deploy it using the “wave” or other deployment option

[@Dkguerilla]

Heard anything from Leatherman this year?

[@frankcastle4435]

Thank you Big Dave I will definitely look into the ZT 0562

[@erico.2479]

before the tri way pivot alot of people thought the 0562 was better than an actual Hinderer. I have the standard G-10 version and it is the smoothest knife in my collection, and i have an xm 18 with the tri way....that titanium version is better than the standard g10...if i were you i would get it...you will not be dissapointed...it's got the updated 20cv steel too

[@jimkissell1620]

I have a request, with the multitude of after market pocket deployer options, and deep carry pocket clips can you recommend a knife I require for urban self defense, I need I knife that’s completely inconspicuous in the pocket, but with practice a short thin pocket clip will aid in the fastest possible deployment

[@darksi226]

I like your knife style, David. Nice vid

[@MostlyFlyFishing77]

Hey David, Questions for the Q&A. Why haven't more manufacturers used thickness behind the edge as a specification? I have only seen it from custom knife makers that measure it just above the micro bevel. This seems like a more accurate measurement to determine how 'slicey' a certain blade geometry would be. Thanks.

[@TheBlueCayman]

Since you're a fixed blade guy, how do you feel about stainless fixed blades? Would you recommend any stainless fixed blades for someone interested in having one for general edc purposes? Edit: Good edge retention and performance are necessary. Wider budget if necessary, up to $200-$300.

[@completewasteofinternetban5822]

You apparently started a run on Super Tinkers with my last question, I finally got it and it works perfect in the MKM magnetic sheath. (Also bought a Razelcliffe with it). My question this time is not as specific. I enjoyed the Shot Show videos but I the music has gotten into my head. What knife should I buy to drive away the them music?

[@billvan5219]

Here's an esoteric question. I was taught to use a loose belt strop. The belt flexes as you use it resulting in a convex Edge? My good slicers that I use carefully haven't been "sharpened" in many years. Can you pick the question out of that mess? What's your opinion?

[@seanthomasdowd]

[@geico1975]

Although, this is an older FAQ, DCA said something that caught my attention. When displaying the Spyderco Tri-angle Sharpmaker, DCA uses it to sharpen his kitchen knives, but he said "not on my customs." Now, I'm assuming this has something to do with the value of custom knives, but is it because one doesn't sharpen custom knives because they never need it, or because one doesn't sharpen knives that cost more than some everyday sharpener?

[@knifecenter]

I like to maintain a convex edge on my custom kitchen knives so I sharpen those with a sandpaper/strop method when needed. I'd say the only downside is that if you are dealing with a knife with a very acute tip, it can tend to get minutely rounded off with the Sharpmaker -DCA

[@cbyron9308]

Hi David, My wife has lost some great Spydercos I’ve gifted her over the last year or so. We have horses so she’s constantly using one for cutting twine, rope, etc. Since she rides daily, the lost knifes are probably sitting somewhere in the middle of some field. When I think of a replacement, her requirements ensure the new blade will join the others in the field - small to fit a front pocket, with a clip. My thoughts are: bright, a possible other carrying option (neck knife), blunt tip as I’ve seen her try to cut a rope that had snared a horse (I mentioned using the blade like that was crazy dangerous - it didn’t go over well). Anyhow, what about the Spyderco Rescue?

[@tidge879]

If she's almost certain to lose it, maybe check out the Byrd line from spyderco, they have some rescue blades with serrated, blunt tips, which would be great for rope etc. Or maybe a scout carry fixed blade for the small of her back? It won't get in the way when she's in the saddle and it's not likely to get hung up and pulled out of the sheath.

[@J3RK115]

So far I have spotted a couple options like : -the crkt overland, but I'm not a fan of the materials used -the civivi plethiros -the kizer Wanderer. Do you have any recommendations? Thx in advance!

Hi David, I worry about civil unrest and would like your opinion on good self-defense knives. A giant fixed blade would rule, but I can’t carry that on the daily. What do you think? Thank you. -Tim

[@excat]

You're better off getting training on how to use a knife, and then you'll learn what knife to look for. It depends on the fighting style. Also, I highly recommend you to not pull a knife on someone unless you know how to use it defending yourself, or it's an absolute life threatening situation. If you don't know how to properly fight with a knife, I can take it from you and turn it against you before you even knew what was going on, and I'm not that experienced, I just know how to disarm someone.

I like your advice on the kitchen knives! I do love my EDCs, but my kitchen knives get a lot more use, and I've had mine for a decade! I have to ask, as an English teacher from Britain, where has "addicting" (used as an adjective) come from?! I've heard it used more and more from many sources, all American. What's wrong with "addictive"? I don't think I'll ever accept it! 😜

[@reasonablenamehere]

It's similar to "nauseating" and "nauseous" being used interchangeably. I tend to notice "addictive" being used more often for a substance and "addicting" used to describe an action. Cigarettes and coffee are addictive, but my Hogue Microflip has an addicting action. Both are technically correct adjectives though.

I think they offer a ton of control for precise edges. They can also be very fluid and it is fun to watch someone skilled and comfortable with the unit sharpening away.

What is the best Super-steel for a survival knife? CPM-4V? Just wondering as 1095 is ancient in terms of metallurgy composition and manufacture.

I think part of the allure of 1095 for survival knives is just how bomb proof it is. It's so tough that it won't snap. But it's also easy enough to sharp on something you could find when you're out and about.

[@excat]

Best steel will always be subjective. Cpm-3v is awesome, until you need to field sharpen it. I'm very love hate with my 3v knife. When I think survival knife, I think a knife I can survive with, and that includes maintaining that knife when I need it, without anything special. 1095 is pretty amazing stuff. Newer isn't always better.

As KEJ said... knife for self defense is sketchy. What style do you train in? The Applegate-Fairbairn and the Fairbair-Sykes are probably the default go to style of fighting knives. But honestly, for actually fighting with them, they are all too short for me. Your timing needs to be flawless with that short a blade (but then I train for sport and fun, not for fighting, which I can guarantee you is messy).
