I just purchased via the amazing interwebs a Benchmade Barrage and Cant wait ta get it in my hands! Hopefully Its a great knife and works well for EDC and looks to be able to double as a survival folder if push comes to shove.

So what knives yall EDC?

Benchmade Elishewitz 730 Ares with axis lock, Victorinox Farmer EDC

Reeve Sebenza for special occasions

Neat Have you had any issues with your axis lock? I read That the Barrage has issues with its lock and spring but these are all dated 2009 and hopefully they have fixed them in the past 2 years

no...mine is older than that..probably pushing 8 years or so..plum g10 with a bright 154cm blade...although there doesn't look like a lot of blade lock up, I've never had a problem... I bicycle an hour or so daily, so gets a lot of sweat that puts a speck or two of surface rust that easily rubs off...blow the lint out with an air compressor every month or two..

Interesting I hope my knifes awesome I cant wait at all to get it.

Got one of those too! It's a bit bulky/weighty for my taste. The coating got scratched up pretty good after a only a few uses so it's not as pretty as it used to be.

Spyderco Spin (C86) is on my keychain. Most of the time I either have have an ESEE (RAT) Izula on my belt, or a similar size knife that I made a few months ago(better steel than the Izula IMO, CPM154 at 61 Rc). It has a slightly longer handle than the Izula, different shape, has scales instead of the cord wrap. It is heavier though, due to solid tang, and stabilized wood scales. I love the Izula, and don't mind it being carbon steel (since its powdercoated the only area of concern is the edge), but it just doesn't hold an edge as long as I'd like. It is really easy to sharpen though.

By the way, you forgot the apostrophe in "y'all."
