which EDC

[concan1208]

I believe the OP abandoned this thread for a similar one in the BM sub ....

I didn't abandon this thread. Appreciate the inputs from other than BM fans so I left it open. If that was a problem Ill shut it down. AS a side note I'm 77 and have butchered many deer, hogs etc and cleaned many fish. I make my own fixed blades but sometimes I don't have one handy and always have my current EDC BM freek with me. Was looking for inputs on other options is all.

No problem at all. Best of luck finding the right knife.

Of the ones you mentioned I would go with the some version of the Grip.
My personal suggestion would be to get one of the BM Crooked River knives. Mini CR in particular.
For a small fixed blade I would suggest the White River Backpacker Pro.

thanks to all who replied. I just ordered Griptillian w/s30v steel. seemed to be the most recommended.
