I really like the double D edge. The 1769 is a great knife, guess it depends on how long of a blade you prefer.
I have'nt seen the drop point knife, but I'm sure it's just as good. Lifetime guarantee on their knives, and they'll sharpen them if you send it in.

What if your like me and can't afford to pay 80 bucks for a knife? I really just straight up can't afford to pay that much. Maybe half that and then that would be iffy and dependant on how the 2 weeks between pays goes haha. Any suggestions for the 0-40 dollar range?

I posted something familiar in the gear section on HNI,

there's a reply for a cheap knife from sloodslapper.

I surfed the net for about two weeks now looking at different knives and I came up with this as specs for an allround knife;
blade 4 to 5"
thickness 3/16"
non serrated edge
full tang
VG-10 steel or V3
handle micarta or rubber

I have narrowed it down to the two fallkniven knives in my first thread but I could well end up buying them both depending on the typed of hunt or bushcraft I am off on....

I'm with ya man! I got a Bass Pro gift card with $40 on it that I wanted to use to buy a knife. I was looking at the Gerber Freeman. It lists for $54.99, so I'll have to come up with a few extra dollars, but I have some family that swear by Gerbers.

Even though I am sure they are a Great knife, I would never spend that much money on one. To each their own, and if someone was so inclined I say more power to you.

I spend more money on Bows, blinds, and Camo than most would

My Schrade Bearpaw has served me very well for the past 40 years. I do have other knives, but it's still my favorite.

What did that one run you dan? And do they still make it?
