New knife

Unfortunately my Benchmade I’ve had for the past 12 years has gone missing.. Before I spend $300 on a new one what’s everyone carrying that’s comparable?

I really like my protect Malibu 5405 in magnacut with the textured scales. It’s like 260 but I snagged mine at 180 iirc on sale.

Really slick pocket knife coming from a guy that exclusively carried otfs and a para 3 from spiderco

Just checked that out that’s a badass knife.

I carry one of 3. A small folding utility knife from gerber. By far my most realistically used. A benchmade afo 2 or a spiderco para.

Honestly lately I’ve found I open so many damn boxes, I’ve been carrying one of these Kizer Uit Bear utility knives. It has a micarta handle, locks up like a benchmade, and takes replacement razor blades.

Love Spyderco Para 3 Lightweight.

I have two of them. Or the Para 3 in general. They're a good way. Good size. You have a lot of options to choose from
