Auto knives

Now that they are legal, what do people recommend?

I've been looking at Boker for price and the new Kershaw Launch line.

They are not legal yet.... the repeal doesn't go into effect until the end of State congress hearings, approximately 9 August.

I own several Booker and a few Benchbade. The Boker above is great for the $$$. Benchmade are super nice but more $$. I'm not a fan of out the front blades as they tend to less durable and the blades are thinner. I use my knives daily so I want them to be sturdy. I have a Boker speedlock and a speedlock2 that I have had for years. The speedlock2 was my edc knife till about 6 months ago. Now a benchmade is its replacement. My Boker lost a side panel and the spring is super weak now.

I moved this to the Knife section, btw.

It was one of my random acts as a moderator, lol.

You want utilitarian or something one can appreciate? I like the Boker for an EDC, stout, sharp moderate weight.

There's the everyday work tool from the cheap ones on the left, to Boker & Benchmade (Middle 2) to collectibles like my post WWII Schrade paratrooper & Hubertus.

AND the (IMO) Cadillac, Lincoln, whatever you like, of knives a Hubertus Solingen. They're works of art, for what they are.

My late Grandmother had one similar to the pink one with hook, but it wasn't pink, and it had two blades a large and small. She was planning on passing it down to one of us boys (likely me because I'm the gun/knife nut out of the bunch), but it was stolen out of her home, along with a bunch of other stuff, unfortunate.

It's 2017, nothing wrong with a pink knife...

Looks pink to me too.

Could be your crappy photography skills I suppose.
