Different sizes of people, different environments, different taste, ECT... There's never been a one size fits all... Not to mention have you seen peoples taste in the last decade is terrible??? I personally like clip points and drop points, while I dislike tantos, recurve, sheeps foot, serrated... I'm 6'1 and dislike folders with blades under 3.25 inches... Not to mention spending hundreds of dollars on a knife is unintelligent/ waste of money....

Love this question! Of these four, the freak is the only I’d be inclined towards. Some of the features I’d be looking at would be ideally a washer pivot, flipper, micarta handles for wet grip, Drop point, closer to 4” than 3”. And I just can’t go with a funky blade shape traditional look is important. Nothing assisted. Keeping it simple, manual and snag free! Though not hitting all the boxes, I like the Taiga as mentioned. I also love the QSP Hawk. The solid locking mechanism is superb. So for budget, the RAT has to get an honorable mention, of course, but CJRB Scoria, civivi praxis, buck vantage avid. Got larger budgets, Maserin Rimini Nimrod checks a lot of boxes. Benchmade bug out or Presidio 2. Cold steel demko.

My dad was a hiker for most of his life, and he kind of liked the knifes, but wasn't a knife collector or knew anything about all these brands, types and models of knifes. Of course his prime time was before the internet era and all it brought to the hobby. Anyway, he carried exactly 2 knifes on him. First was a chunky fixed blade bowie knife which he used for cutting branches, throwing it in trees, cutting twine, poking stuff out, etc.. And the other was an old school buck slip joint folder which he used to prep food and forage mushrooms. Times and people were simpler 30-40 years ago...

The Freek is a GREAT choice, but the SOG Kiku XR has really surprised me and is my new favorite in this category. 1. It's probably the most ergonomic knife I own, especially in reverse grip, which is incredibly comfy and has great protection with the flipper. 2. In addition to the sweet XR lock action, it has a flipper and can be spidey flicked. 3. The blade is stout with a recurved section and a section with a nice belly. 4. The XHP is a little easier to sharpen and more corrosion resistant. 5. The LTE version (which is a bit over the $200 limit) is only 3.65 oz. We'll see how durable it is. Lovin' it so far.

Heavy blade and feel great in the hand. 4) Hogue EX-01 with G-mascus scales. I like Hogue knives. 5) Microtech Stitch. This is an auto and might be too aggressive for most people.

Very minimal branding which is really nice too see SOG finally doing.The texturing is great while not being too rough or tearing up the pocket, you can use the part just forward of the flipper tab as a choke up point, and bring sent the deep carry pocket clip art no charge makes this a great EDC.

I think my pick would have to be the Kizer Vanguard Gemini, at the more budget-end price point. Maybe not exactly 3 inches, so some states might have an issue with it, but if you aren't in a state or county that does, it's a fantastic knife. Great drop point design by Ray Laconico, fantastic edge geometry, good grinds, micarta scales, and N690 steel, one of the two best non-particle steels (the other being 154CM in my opinion), all for only 75 bucks. Chinese manufactured, sure, but so are the Civivis, and I think Kizer's designs are all great, but this one stands out to me as their best for a do-all folder.

I carry a fullsize griptilian most days (mine wears deathgripscales) but it's a fantastic "do all" kind of carry knife. Awesome knife. If you are looking for a little bit smaller do all edc, a spyderco native 5 in any flavor is hard to beat. Smaller overall footprint, spyderco's best lock, and ergonomics that allow the native to "behave" like a much larger knife than it really is. It's good at everything. At the other end of the spectrum, when I hear $40, I think only of the civivi praxis. I don't think a better knife for your money exists right now. It's just so good. Mine plays the roll of around the house, out in the yard, whatever knife. It's easily my most used knife and I find myself happy every time I carry it because it has no business being as good as it is for $42. If you own it and use it, you say to yourself "I don't really need anything else" but of course we buy more knives.

I recommend the assisted opening Bear Ops A-300-AIBK-S in 3.625 length blade in 14C28N. American Made to boot and 14C28N is tougher than most of the CPM steels except 3V and 4V. The assisted opening is about as close to an auto as you can get. Bear and Son makes it and they have other tactical knives, but this is under $50, but I'm not sure Knife Center sells the 3 5/8ths length. Blade HQ is where I acquired mine and they list the blade as .090, but it is .140 and the grind goes to .090 about 3/4 of the way down, so I don't know who measured that .090. My Bear Ops measures HRC 60 hard as my 59.3 hard scratcher doesn't scratch it, but my 60.8 does, barely.

For a folder, CRKT M21-04G. Flipper makes it fast into action. Dual locking mechanisms keep it tight and safe, even for do-or-die applications, blade design allows for pretty much anything from thrusting attacks to simple every day cutting chores. Comfortable, well designed, decent materials that work but don't break the bank. I have a lot of knives but this one is the only folder I've ever liked so much I replaced it when I lost the first one. I've talked several of my friends into getting one. I think CRKT should pay me royalties, because I have been singing this knife's praises for years!

The Super Freek is a great choice, but if the budget was a little higher I would suggest the Benchmade Adamas in CPM-Cruwear, I love mine and barely notice it in my pocket even considering the size. Plus I also wear XL gloves and the Adamas had pretty agressive ridges and a long handle that will work with gloves very nicely. I can fit both my Adamas and phone in the same pocket and it isn't that heavy at all even when wearing my jeans without a belt.

A good Cold Steel choice for this would be the Air Lite, or the American Lawman would be a good fit as well. I bring that up because you mentioned Cold Steel at the end. Thin and easy to carry in the pocket, strong Triad lock, 3.5" blades, no bearings to gunk up, decent enough edge geometry. Not a super slicer by any means, but still cuts very well, yet is sturdy enough to hold up to outdoor use. Both are also good for self defense. Great all around use knives and the prices aren't to crazy.

The Civivi Praxis is 0.25 over the size, that shouldn't be a disqualifier (to me.) It's about the best knife Civivi makes, and I have quite a number of Civivis in my EDC rotation.

The do it all knife would be a Cold Steel knife model called Recon 1. This is a tremendous knife and the lock is very strong. You can check out the Code Steel knives on KZbin. The Freek from Benchmade is also great but for a Benchmade checkout the Turret. I have one and this knife is perfect for any outdoors man. With regards to the Freek if you decide to go in that direction buy the Freek not super Freek with semi serrations. Another company to consider would be Tops. They have 2 models which are really impressive and are not too costly. The Tops Cat and the Tops Saw. With 200.00 dollars you can own these two knives that will last a long time probably forever!

@@xlittlecountryx1733 you might not be able to carry a gun, but anyone capable of trying to knife fight is capable of wearing a pair of running shoes. There aren't any situations where you can't get away that you didn't work to get yourself into in the first place

@@iceman5117 That's not true. People get jumped all the time. I just watched a episode of a true crime shoe where a dude was attacked and pulled out of his car at red light and the only way he got out of it was by getting his knife out of his pocket and stabbing the dude.

@@xlittlecountryx1733 no one has ever gotten jumped and not had a chance to get away. The people looking to jump you aren't trying to kill you, they want your shit. Your wallet isnt worth your life. They guy should have had his doors locked and pinned the gas as soon as something happened. If he had a chance to fish a knife out of his pocket and open it, he had more than enough time to do literally anything else And this is all ignoring states like New York where you'll catch a charge for using anything other than a firearm for self defense

Paramilitary 2.....budget....Code 4 is right at the same price as that SOG, 3.5" exactly, S35VN/aluminum, tri-ad, 4.15 oz., spear point. If I'm going cheaper than that, I'd go with the Rat 1 in D2, preferably one made in Taiwan. Good liner lock as liner locks go, great ergos, beefy cutter, but could definitely slam it between somebody's ribs if need be. But...if you are REALLY going to edc this "one knife," I think you have to go smaller....mini bugout with CF elite, 945, Para3 (not a lightweight), or a mini recon1 bowie point in Aus10A--budget Rat2 in D2.

Hi guys, I’m looking for a hard core chopper to help me gather firewood for home heating. Machete style with a front heavy design and a grind that doesn’t get stuck. It needs to be very tough and not more than $150-$175. Can you help? My balance isn’t as good as it used to be, so I don’t want to climb around felled trees to cut off all the smaller limbs with my chain saw. I did buy a Coldsteel Kukri for this task, but it doesn’t work nearly as well as I had hoped. I need something with a bit more thump. Thanks!
