Frost, anything Pakistan made, ZT (cost) GEC (I like Case and Boker).
I have a Frost trapper knife with half stops and find it satisfactory in every way, it has good snap, half stops, no blade wiggle, very sharp and holds an edge, nicely colored bone scales. I carry it in my front pocket and would not be without it. I got it at a pawn shop for next to nothing. A great buy. I found a Pakistani knife that is about the same size and style as the Buck 110 only unlike the Buck the Pakastani has phenolic scales. These scales were so tough that when the former moron owner used the knife as a hammer the scales did lose a little bit of meat but did not disintegrate and the knife is still usable. I bought it at the same pawn shop for $2.00. It is razor sharp and the blade fits with no wobble and has plenty of snap. The color of the phenolic scales is a very pleasing deep maroon. The bolsters are brass and engraved. A far better knife in quality than any of my Buck 110 knives. I also bought an Indian knock off of the Fairbairne Sykes commando knife. I like it better than the original John Knowles knife I have as its built far more rugged for hard use as opposed to the delicate blade of the Knowles knife which I consider almost next to useless for any task. I have a knock off of the famous WWII Devil's brigade knife made in India and it was a steal compared to paying 4 times that amount for one made by the original maker Case. The Case knife is hollow ground while the knife made in India has a straight grind but the Indian knife is sharp enough for its intended purpose.
