I like my buck 112. Fits in my pocket nicely and made in the USA and holds a pretty good edge.

I collect Case knives, but I carry Bucks and Gerbers for using. I cannot justify the cost of the high end knives.

I collect knives, of course I don't carry any of those. Most of the time I carry either a kissing crane with a carbon steel blade or a puma with stag handle.

No Chinese knockoffs, Authentic Made in Germany. I won't buy the cheap knockoffs. You have to watch some of the hen and roosters now because some of them are made in spain, some of the bokers and Kissing cranes are Chinese made. I don't buy any of those.

I have quite a few Gerber blades and a lot of cheaper ones from Winchester and similar that I carried at work but for every day carry I have a Columbia River that I like. I have several from CRKT and they have all been good. Kershaw, Puma, Buck have been daily carries at one time or another.

I'm thinking that A.G. Russell owns the Hen & Rooster rights and old stock. He puts out a knife or two a year from the line and they aren't cheap. http://www.agrussell.com/

I use this "Gadsen Flag"[don't tread on Me] as my pocket knife. just a $20 special of which about half goes to the NRA.

I carry a Hen and Rooster and really like mine. I don't see much difference between it and a Case though.

I have a few Gerbers that were gifts. But still prefer my Buck pocket knives. They get used daily and seem to hold up vs. some of the others.

I rotate between the one I mentioned above and a SOG Twitch II my wife gave me last Christmas. The first knife I've ever owned with a clip on it. It took a little getting used to, but after a while I really like carrying it like that.

I use abuse and lose knives too much to justify buying an expensive pocket knife.

I never use a high end pocket knife, generally use a buck,...something that locks is a must.
