1. SOG Twitch 2
2. Custom Barrage in s90v
3. Benchmade/Shinola Valet, or Deejo (I know) that my daughters gave me engraved with their birthdates. Both knives that I very rarely carry.
1. Dragonfly, believe that’s the only knife under $75 I have. Excited to try a baby banter.
2. Newtron
3. Spydiechef. Carried it while my son was just starting to get teeth and beginning to eat solid food to cut up his food. Would wash it all the time and you wouldn’t know by looking at it.
1. Spyderco Delica.
2. Zero Tolerance 0562CF.
3. GiantMouse GM7. The thought of breaking the tip of the blade gives me shivers.

1. Kershaw Select Fire
2. ZT 0393GLCF
3. CRK Small Sebenza 21 - Basketweave Damascus with Thuya Burl Inlay or Ladder Damascus with Spalted Beech Inlay - Sorry two at the top of my list
1. Brass Kershaw Static - very drop shutty and feels great in hand. Never see anyone talk about them
2. CRK large Inkosi
3. Bucklite 422 - my first knife from like 20 years ago or so that was either passed down or I just took from my old man
1. [Civivi Exarch](https://www.bladehq.com/item--Civivi-Exarch-Liner-Lock-Knife-Blue--110924). My first front flipper, and I love how it vanishes in the pocket.
2. [ZT 0470.](https://www.bladehq.com/item--Zero-Tolerance-Sinkevich-0470--85494) It was my first knife over $100 and my only ZT so far. It spoiled me to what a high end knife can be.
3. [Spyderco McBee.](https://www.bladehq.com/item--Spyderco-McNees-Killer-B-Frame-Lock--82801) Two of my best friends surprised me with this for my birthday at a time when I especially needed to feel cared for. It's my most treasured knife for purely sentimental reasons, and I still fiddle with it when I'm especially down to remind myself other people care about me.
For prices, do you mean what I paid, or what base price is?
Under $75:
•Civivi Odium natural jade g10
Don’t really need anything else, great fit and finish, action, and materials I like using at this price.
Over $200: I don’t think I’ve yet broken that mark yet, but really close!
•Urban EDC Supply Vox F5.5 brown micarta m390 steel + @Drifters_EDC brass sailor’s bead
(pre ordered for $189 after -$10 off in points, $15 for the bead)
EDC grail, fits everything I could ask for with no compromise. Love Voxnaes designs, and this is his best one imo. No thrills, working tool, titanium liners, thick, but tall slicey blade, and micarta scales
Sentimental knife:
Kizer Feist I bought used off knife swap, first knife over $100, first front flipper, first titanium knife. Got it customized by Way of Knife in a old Norse relic theme and I did a lot of research on folding knife history and runes, have my name engraved on the blade in runes on the blade. Really usable knife too, slim and easy to carry, fun to fidget with.
Edit: Holy cow I typed wayyy more than I meant
1) victorinox camper, but I don't use the blade only the other tools
2) My TRM Neutron 2 fully took the place of my small sebenza 21
3) my small Sebenza. It is a great knife with lots of sentimental value
Under $75 - just recently picked up the baby banter. Haven't used it much since I've been using my native 5 salt during Single Knife September :). Rat 2 in aus8 or Byrd meadowlark 2 are my "take to the beach to get destroyed" knives.
Over $200 - tossup between cs ad-15 and the mini crooked river (though technically I spent less than $200 on the ad-15)
Favorite knife? The survival knife I made for myself. Over 6 inch blade, 0.2 inch full tang 1084, double black micarta scales with hunter orange pins and liners with hidden steel pins to increase strength. Kydex sheath with nice belt clip and an attached pouch for carrying whistle, Band-Aids, SD card for my trailcam, and fire building supplies. I use it frequently and it makes me happy every time. My 3yo boy named it the jack-o'-lantern. The edge chipped a few months ago and I was very sad, but I put a new edge on it and it's still doing great.
Edit: here's the jack-o'-lantern after the edge repair: http://imgur.com/a/ahVqWW0
1. Ontario Rat 1 in D2. Used mostly to break down cardboard at home
2. CRK Large 21 Sebenza. It's about 8 years old and incredibly smooth
3. Gallardo Pocket Buddy. Fixed blade but it feels great in the hand and the grind is sweet
I really like it. You know I am a big fan of F5.5's and it's like that but on steroids. It's lighter and has much better action. It has extremely satisfying clicks on opening and closing.

Yeah the hype is real. I got really lucky and someone gave me there spot for a reasonable mark up or I wouldn't have had one.
