Thread: Thinking about my first EDC

I've held the Tenacious in my hand twice so far....and I"m sorely tempted to buy it myself. It's a very nice blade. Solid feeling and good bang for the buck. (I'm still trying to figure out how to get one for the american price instead of the european price (I'm cheap...I know).

I also have a Byrd CaraCara, it's anything but small. I think it might be bigger than the Tenacious. It's cheaper as well. But If I'd have had the choice between the tenacious and the caracara for $10 price difference I'd have gotten the Tenacious. (Still love my Cara though I carry it often)

Between Spyderco/byrd and Gerber I'd go for spydies though. I just like em better and they have a better name nowadays.

My own current favorite blade is a version of the Böker Kalashnikov. (Not the Böker plus versions...they look cheap to me).

It's massive, light and I think it's the only blade I have that came armhair shaving sharp out of the box.

Downside is that it's a lot more expensive. (Cheapest models run into $150 or so)

But I love it a lot so it was worth it to me.
