Thread: EDC Knife

I don't think 440c over Aus-8 is much of an improvement to be honest, if at all. The difference is all in the heat treat and Aus-8 can take and hold an absolutely brilliant edge. The subcom is hardly a heavy weight anyway so not sure about titanium either!

I like the one with the wharncliffe type blade, but I really don't need another small locker.

Incidently LX, have you picked up a Coronado? That is a hell of a lot of knife for the money. I recommend every one get one!

Each to his own offcourse. I much prefer Böker's 440C over anyone's AUS8.

And Titanium over FRN and steel, even if it's only for the feel.

I didn't get the coronado....I have most of my spending money stuck in knife making materials.....I've got all sorts of cool woods, MOP, steel etc laying around without me having a lot of time to work with.
