Er...ummm...are they available at my local WalMart? No, but even better, you can get them on eBay or BF and you never even have to leave your chair! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

The Manix is a great knife it's built like a bank vault. Yes, we have quite a large Manix thread going at the Swamp: Folders...If you have to have one.

That's a pretty neat scales-free shot of the Manix locking mechanism Bors. I like the blade shape on the Manix. I'm going to have to hold one to see for myself the claimed tank-like goodness of the knofe.

If you like BM, I'll second the Ritter Grip, I think the large is a great value even if it's not as nice as some other BMs.
I would go for the Seb without hesitation if you're even slightly inclined...it will save a lot of cash if you buy one to begin with instead of working your way up. I can't imagine myself damaging my sebenza, but if you want heavy heavy duty, Strider is probably the best option for indestructibility, though I don't own any.
The Cabela's 110 looks pretty good, I was thinking of getting one myself.
rooikat, do you have a regular 110 to compare it to?

True, Andy. But they're way too rich for my blood. The last one at BF sold for $235.00. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> Yeah, me too. I even thought the original price was too expensive…for me anyway.

Awesome pics Bors! +1 on the Manix or MiniManix....built as tough as the groin shield on your armor! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for all the info and suggestions. I think I may just have to make a trip down to Cabelas and get my hands on some knives. They all look good on the monitor, but I think I should go fondle some. Knives that is, of course.

I have a hard time telling whether I will like a knife until I hold it. Then it's obvious <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

The Manix is a great choice if you wear a glove size of Large-XXL... However, if you have smallish hands, it may be a bit much for you... NOT the knife for most petite ladies!...
I don't personally own one (YET!), but I have used one before and WOW they are nice!!!
