Right there with ya Brock,i usually have a cheapo on me and they do the job and i can keep em good and sharp.
I just put a little loktite on all the screws and good to go.
Haven't broke one yet and if i do i got replacements at $3.87 a knife at walmart.lol
Works just as good as those 100 dollar knives.
Hell i have gutted deer with this little knife.Good skinners also.
Its more of a hobby for me than anything. I just enjoy the look and feel of an expensive knife.
I didn't need a $700 smart phone either when they came out. I did just fine with my old Razer flip phone. But now that I've owned them, no way I could go back.
I've got two different knives I carry now, but I'd really like to get a nice folding knife. I've got a cheap Gerber and a Buck now, but wouldn't mind dropping two bills on something nice. It would be my luck I'd lose it in the first week though!
I'm a middle of the road knife guy I guess. I don't use dirt cheap blades but I don't break the bank on them either. I usually carry a Gerber and I keep a couple in the truck, the boat, and in other random places. I tend to use higher quality knives for my butchering needs, since those never leave the house or the garage. For EDC and work knives I just don't see a need for a high dollar knife. As long as they're sharp that's what matters most. But I can understand why others would carry better knives. It's like anything else... I could kill ducks just fine with an old 870 but instead I prefer to hunt with a high quality autoloader. I get it.
Picked up this light to go along with my daily carry essentials. It's no high dollar light but its 325 lumens, has high, low, and strobe along with a battery lock twist by the cap. Runs on 2 cr123 batteries. $30 Walmart special. Went there to get the wife a dozen roses and had to get myself something lol
325 lumens...how do you use that every day? That'd be border line too bright to see anything up close. I'm don't remember what the one I carry is, but it's even too damn bright for a lot of things. Gotta do the triple tap to dim it down.
I like that bezel though, looks like the surefire defender my wife carries. And it hurts like hell when she hits you in the ribs with it...

I have the same light and it does a great job bashing heads actually... On bullfrogs that is! Lol
