Yeppo, I see what you mean know. I'll let everyone know how it turns out.

Yeah, his original Ti stuff is unobtanium for me, can't seem to come up with enough cash

My current every day carry is this:

RAT Cutlery DPx H.E.S.T
Great blade, pry bar pommel, wire break notch, hollow handle, bottle opener. It feels like your hand was made to hold it, it is so comfortable.

That reminds me of when I went camping with my Boy Scout Troop and the den mother requested a full mess kit in each pack. My parents brought back something just like that that had two fold-out knife blades, spoon and fork.

What's a good knife you can find on Ebay/DealExtreme up to 50 dollars (preferably less ) that WILL HOLD YEARS OF ABUSE ?

It needs to have around 4" blade, doesn't have to be serrated, and comfortable handle for various jobs. Anything from carving wood to cutting meat.



I need a quick recommendation...

thanks !

In a fixed blade, look at the Scandi Moras, either a 2000 or a clipper. Excellent inexpensive general use knives.

Here it is with my Condor Jungle Bowie:

Nice. I just ordered that knife's little brother, the 6" model with black wood handle. Still $33.

Will this hold a 6 month trip to the south american forests ?
SOG Fusion

I decided to go Fixed Blade... Up to 50$.
Anything else ? Perhaps that Boker Bowie in the post above me ? It's also around 40-50 dollars.

 

[cyberspyder]

You should get RAT cutlery knife (or E.S.E.E, as they're called now). Another better option to the SOG Seal is a Becker (Kabar).

Becker makes basically indestructible knives. A little more than $50, but well worth it. Here's my Becker Brute.

Looks like a TANK ! Hehe
Bill, that Bowie you ordered goes for around 40-50 dollars and it looks great and solid, would you say it's a good multipurpose durable knife as well ?

So far, I've seen only a photo. I'll tell you my impressions when it arrives, which UPS says will be tomorrow (usually around 1pm EST).
