good but......

[tyler34]

we all have or have seen knives that we thought it's pretty good but if you did _________ it would be way better. so heres the question, pick a knife or two but you can only choose one thing to make it better.

1. spyderco tenacious

one thing I would change: better blade steel because it's about perfect in every other way. it doesn't have to be cpmM4(a guy can wish though) but at least 154cm if not s30v. I have said ever since this knife came out that if they changed that it would be one of their top sellers.


2. kershaw leek

one thing I would change: just be a bit bigger. I know the reasons for it being small but I personally find it SO awkward to open especially so in the brushed aluminum ones which at least they fixed that in the s30v version by adding G10 grips.

1.sog seal pup elite

first. i would change: the country where it's made. needs to be made here in the USA.
second:it needs a wider tang, micarta scales, and a pommel. i don't mind the AUS 8, eve though it's not the best for edge retention, because it's rust resistance in wet situations.
got to love the price point!

well, if i must. i pick the pommel. i want the option to hammer it into something if i need too, or bust a car window out.

Any Zero Tolerance model. I like the size and weight. They conceal well in the pocket and fit well in my hand. However, if I could change one thing, I would include a wave feature for faster deployment.

I love my Spyderco Tencacious and I agree with you its near perfect, I dont see what I would change.
I like the steel they use, its very easy to keep sharp so that's not what I would change.
Maybe I would change the G10 on the grip, its a bit too smooth for me.

What are you talking about, you don't need a waved anything

Spyderco Military:
I would start making them in S90V again. Id love to get one if I can ever find one at a decent price.

My Spyderco Tenacious - I wish the handle were better suited to the blade. This means a thinner handle in which the blade would sit further down in.

Other than that I absolutely love it.

Buck 110 - make a version with a drop point
Buck 112 - make a version with a drop point

BK Necker - use stock that's maybe 10% thinner than what they use now, or make them a little wider (want a thinner edge)

My beef with is with Gerber in general. Many models I like (lmf, Applegate, MKII, LHR, etc) are not even offered in a plain, non combo edge. I f#%#ing hate serrated blades! I have yet to find a choir that a serrated edge works as well as a sharp plain edged knife. If I wanted a saw, I will use a saw. My favorite is when models have a finger choil butting up against serrations. I have a real hard time making that work for me.

As much as I love the wave, the finger flipper on the back of an open assisted knife is pretty damn fast on the draw.

Kershaw blackout.
I wish it had a taller lock release thingy..my big gorrila tumb has a hard time getting a grip on it to close the blade.

Busse folder.

Make it already.

Busse folder.

Make it already.

And keep it under $300. I have a feeling they would be $800-900.

 

[prowland]

I would like to see an extra 3/4" - 1" on the Leek also keep everything else exactly the same.

 

[DaKruiser]

You guys are gonna think I'm crazy! But I would like to have a little bit longer ZT0300, about 1/2" to 1" it would probably be a perfect knife for me.

I guess that would be a folding machete would'nt it!

I'd be up for it. As long as I can clip it to my pants without it hitting the bottom of my pocket, bigger is better.

 

[jbombelli]

I would round the butts off my Busse SJTACs. I don't like that skullcrusher.

1. Move the laynyard hole on the Strider SNG.
Over all I really like this knife, but the fact the blade touches the mini lanyard I have on it bugs the heck out me.

2. Change the blade shape of the ZT 300 series knives.
I understand that recurves have a place. But i just dont like them for EDC. I think a simple plain edge drop point would be great.
