Jeff, you really should! Built like a tank and should last a lifetime. Pricy, Yes, worth the bucks, yes. I wouldn't trade either one of mine for anything except another one of his blades of some sort.
For me, the Small Sebbie is the perfect pocket knife. Big enough to get the job done but not to big to carry.

Anybody have a Lion Steel Daghetta? I was surfing around today and stumbled across one. Started snooping around and looks like a slick blade! Opinions? That is a pretty cool blade, if you get one let us know I'm close, but trying to convince my dad to get it so I can check it out! The one with the carbon fiber/g10 combo scales looks sweet. The para 2 still your go to folder jared? That and the Ritter Griptilian get all the carry here. Yeah man, the para2 is the only one I carry now Thanks Jared, I was talking ZT0551/0 with my dad this weekend and encouraging him to go with the para! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I'm tempted to score another...black/camo..I never buy duplicates, but I like this knife a lot!

I have gone through carrying a lot of different folders over the last 15 years such as Camillus, Emerson, Benchmade, Kerhsaw and many more, but the one that I have been carrying for a couple of years now is a Spyderco military. It is a really smooth knife that flicks open with just a gentle flick of my thumb on the generous thumb hole and the CPM S30V steel holds an edge really well. CPM S30V is my favorite stainless steel for knives, this Spyderco has only needed to have a few runs across a ceramic rod to keep it real sharp.

No matter how many cool, trick folders I get, I always carry the Rat TRap or the CS Voyager. Light and fast. And big.

I saw a thread on BF about the skyline model and decided to try it. Amazingly it is the one I have actually carried in my pocket for about the last month. It is lightweight, flips open with little effort and comes shaving sharp. For $35 it is one great little folder. lol, me too. I carried it for a while, then bought one of the $40 speed bumps, and LOVE the blade design. not a fan of the sandvic (sp) steel though. doesn't hold an edge for me, as I use my edc tools a lot.

Thanks Jered, I was talking ZT0551/0 with my dad this weekend and encouraging him to go with the para! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
I'm tempted to score another...black/camo..I never by duplicates, but I like this knife a lot!
I just pre-ordered a para2 with blue handles and m390 steel. I have the brown millie (my first spyderco) and like it so much, I'm waiting for preorders to open on the m390/carbon fiber sprint run.

I like wharcliffe (sp) blades. I have a lrg micarta sebenza and a small plain handle (normal blades). I think I'm going to sell the small one, it just doesn't get carried as much as I thought it would. I hope to replace it with a micarta or wood inlaid handle one though, and give that a chance.

You forgot to mention the SAK OHT! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I find myself using the OHT more and more for small chores around the house! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

wish there was a sak oht in sv-90 or m390.
I prize edge durability highly on folders. I don't like having to sharpen my knives.

I have a few folders that I really like but I am very excited about this one that is on its way done by a local maker, but inspired by Chris Reeve, Rick Hinderer and other local knife makers.
