That's a Kershaw Skyline Damascus. I bought it when I wanted a new knife that wouldn't break the bank too much.

My favorite knife. Smooth as butter, amazing ergonomics, and still pretty lightweight.
S&W can make a very fine knife!
My choice for protection.

Wow, lots of love for SpyderCo here. Great knives, love my endura 4. I also have countless ****ty knives and a few mora survival knives lying around. I'm in the process of making my own now so maybe I'll post pics when I'm done!

For some silly reason I keep my Spyderco Wayne Goddard Micarta knife in my gun safe and don't carry it anymore, because they are hard to replace, but for 10 years it was my every day carry. Now I carry the Benchmade Mini-Griptilion everywhere, and had to replace it once after I lost it in the movie theater (used it to open a pickle for my daughter and never saw it again).

Benchmade and Spyderco are definitely quality knives. I've been meaning to dabble in the Kershaw company as well, but I'm also wary of overlapping the knives and their blade style and what they can be used for.

Kind of a side-story here, but I love eyeballing gadgets that other people have and then starting a conversation with "Is that a 'insert gadget model here'"? Yesterday in class I noticed a flat silver clip outside of a guy's pants pocket. After class when I asked him if it was a Kershaw, he was confused at first, and I had to specify that I meant the knife he was carrying. He had to double-check, but it was indeed a Kershaw, and he said how it was "one hell of a knife."

I love my Spyderco Endura 4 to death and even though I know that it is more easily replaceable than some other models, I always worry about losing it, so for the most part, I tend to avoid EDCing it, and currently EDC my Byrd Catbyrd which, from my online reading, I have determined is pretty much the same knife as the Spyderco Tenacious is terms of manufacturer, blade and blade material.

As far as things go, I'm pretty much a knife n00b, but for my first, I purchased a Gerber Crucial yesterday at REI. It's not really a knife, but the knife on it seemed like a pretty substantial part of it.
