Find a store with a good knife selection and start fondling.

Benchmade and Kershaw are my two favorite companies. Good steel. Good ergonomics. Good selection.

just bought one on ebay for 17 bucks Ill try it out

I know there are a lot haters out there but I like Benchmade. If your .mil or LEO you can get a pretty good discount on their website.

Go check out the Spyderco store in Golden - http://www.spyderco.com/
They have a great selection and usually some sort of special going on like buy two get one for free type deal.
I have a few and some others but the Spyderco's are my first choice.

Don't they have some kind of once-a-year sale in their store?
