The mayhem is a really good knife, but only an ok flipper. The design is meant for EDC and it excels at that. I sold mine to fund my current CRK.
 
The 51 is a better flipper, and it is much lighter. The materials aren't as good as the mayhem though. The titanium handles+s30v beat the g10 handles+d2. However, I believe someone in the JD is or was making SS/TI handles for the 51, but at the price of either of those, it would just be cheaper to get a 42.
 
 

The guy in the video got his whole knife pimped for less than a 42. I don't want the cerkote, flamed Ti, or bushings, I still want my knife factory serviceable, I'm going to look into scales and how much they'd be for a 51 before I buy a 51, I might just have the thing shipped to him.

I've been using Swiss army knives for a while, and I'm planning to get my first "real" pocket knife.
 
I have my eyes on the Spyderco Delica 4, for a EDC, and a Military for more serious uses (but it will most likely be rarely used).

I thought the Paramillitary would be too big, ended up being one of my favorite knives.
 
The thing is whenever you get the Endura, you always wish you owned a Delica and vice versa, I've never owned both in one sitting haha.

guys, depending where you are be careful what you edc. some places will not just confiscate a nice knife they will arrest you for a felony!

 

[pigmode]

I hardly every use this anymore, as its basically retired. Its been too many places, including a few thousand miles on the ocean. . Its a Delica, Btw, and the plastic clip rules---I hate the sharp edged metal ones.

a quick and dirty using computer screen light and a little photoshop

^^ Is that the benchmade 14210? I thought those had a recurve instead of a flat edge, or is that because you have a 1st production run? I've always wanted to get one of those

It's the 14205. 

  Very robust knife.
 
But my favorite blade shape is a similar one ground by Mike Irie for some Pacfic Cutlery handles.

I bought so many Chinese knives lately people must think I work for them. 

 This is ofcourse not the case, it's just that I discovered a couple of manufacturers who deliver absolutely outstanding quality. A great example of this is my latest addition, the SanRenMu B787. (I haven't made my own photos yet, these are from Bladeforums)
 

 
The B787 is, in my opinion, a great example of a perfect EDC knife. Sturdy, balanced, tight, non-threatening design, extremely sharp with a non-conventional blade shape for cutting as well as prying, a bottle opener and solid construction allround. The blade is 8Cr14MoV and the handle black and blue anodized titanium. 
 

 
These photo's don't do the wonderfully futuristic design justice. The blue and black accents look amazing and the finish is near flawless. All this for around $12 just blows my mind. 
 

 
To be continued! The postman brought a whole box of goodies...

Small Sebenza
Dual Lug 
S35VN blade steel
 



 
My other one was a large in S35VN and single lug only... doesn't really get much better than this. I handled a Strider SMF and the fit and finish is good, but still not on par or close to this. They're different knives for different purposes though, although in terms of cutting ability I still think these are better.

How I'd love to own a Seb, but I can't justify the cost. May fate lead me to finding one laying forgotten in a corner of a garage sale. 

 

[cogsand gears]

another quick and dirty by laptop light
 

 

[au5t3n5]

a bm530! i had one, but i sold it. great knife, and as thin and light as can be. i just ended up not liking the spear point blade style. not as useful to me as the sebbie blade.
