Hmmm, previous post gave improper impression of how I buy knives. I don't own a single "pretty" knife (well, I do own a Blackjack Applegate-Fairbairn that I think is pretty neat looking, but that is about it). I own a lot of different knives for different purposes, and my favorites are always the functional ones.
I cannot like a knife when the lock fails to engage due to poor craftsmanship. He didn't mind because the blade was serrated and thus not sharp. It was designed to cut seatbelts, not flesh. To me, that ain't safe, and it ain't functional.
Overall, my favorite knives tend to be folders with partially serrated blades, and I tend toward Cold Steel. I carry a Beretta Airweight right now because I tend to wear very lightweight dress pants and I don't want the knife to print. Were I able, I'd buy another Cold Steel Voyager (I broke the lock on my old one after YEARS of hard use)
