agree. check various sites to get best price.Fällkniven F1.
OK, thanks.The Teräva knives are excellent. I have some in carbon steel.
You might want to remove that non-supporting vendor link...
....just saying.
No offence taken! I like a 5" blade too. As part of an overall woods kit, though, the F1 is a beautiful and robust smaller knife.Personally, IMHO, I feel the F1 to be just a tad too small. Granted I said for my tastes. I'd rather have at least a 4 1/2 to 5" blade with a full tang.
Please remember...these are just my personal preferences.
I'm NOT trying to slam any of you other posters.
To each his own.

Oh, in that case I agree. I thought we were talking a one and done. The F1 is fantastic.
Another great choice! The Manly Patriot in CPM 154 would be a very good option. Can't remember the price though.I will throw in the manly Patriot.
In this case, sacrifice must be made. Personally I would sacrifice rust resistance...even then it’s gonna be really difficult to find a sub $100 fixed blade that comes with a decent sheath. If I had to narrow it all down for you I would recommend an ESEE 4. It’s a few more bucks but you can choose if you want a tough 1095 blade or an adequately tough 440c stainless blade... and they come with a good sheath.
Why stainless?
