I'm looking for a new edc partially serrated locking folder. I will consider most locking types except liner lock, I've never been a fan of those. I prefer a non black coated blade but that is not a deal breaker. I have been researching for days and everything leads to some form of benchmade griptillian or bugout, and a few spydercos. All of which I'm sure are excellent choices, however I would like to hear other options. It appears options for knives with partially serrated blades are somewhat limited. All suggestions are appreciated.

Partial SE just doesn't work very well . Better to go with either fully serrated or plain edge .

Spyderco has many fine versions . Cold Steel work great , but its harder to sharpen their tiny serrations .

You might get more useful suggestions , if you provide more detail on how much you can spend and what you need to cut , etc . :)
 
Kershaw has several USA made knives with partial serrations. Probably have imported ones too, but I didn't check. Go to their website and filter by blade edge type.

Buck hast a 110 LT and a Vantage, with partial serrations, on their in stock deals page. They may also have others. Again I didn't look further. I don't like partially serrated blades.

O.B.
 
I carried a partially serrated spyderco delica for years when I found a use for that.

Kershaw leek would be a good budget choice. Chris Reeve sebenza offers one if you can find it. The not so budget choice.
 
Thanks for the suggestions. I'm looking to spend no more than $200. I don't use a pocket knife a lot. But when I do it could be for anything from cardboard to zip ties or plastic, or really anything. I have looked at the kershaw leek, but I'm wondering if the build quality is even close to benchmade or spyderco. Also between benchmade and spyderco, which would likely be the better choice?
 
Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up finding a discontinued model Benchmade Presidio II CF-Elite 570-SBK-1 for $100 looks like new. If I can figure out how to post pictures I will.
 
Well apparently me posting pictures here is forbidden so here is the link to the knife I bought. Thanks again for all the suggestions.

Unfortunately as I'm sure you will soon find out, eBay links are also not allowed as eBay is not a supporter of the site. Congratulations on the new knife though!
 
I have a fully serrated blade on my civivi utility knife at the moment.

For edc cardboard and ties and that sort of stuff it exells.

Just be silly trying to cut an apple or something.

Me using youtube because I also can't post pictures.

Thanks, seems like a killer knife, and it is big enough that the plain edge and serrated edge are both usable.
