Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades

[tmg]

After deciding against trying to import the Zing, (the distinct possibility of customs charges and hassle really put me off), I then found Heinnies, and have spent the last day browsing their extensive selection….......to the point that I'm now down to a shortlist of 5,
Spyderco Tenacious
Rough Rider Trapper
Spyderco Kiwi
Kershaw Zing
Boker Plus Subcom 42 Ti

Any advice?

I know that only the Rough Rider, Kiwi and Subcom are UK legal, but I would use the other choices for outdoor stuff anyway, so that isn't too much of an issue for me.

I am ordering from that guy again, so I can proxy the Zing for you if the need be…

Got my eye on a Sebenza

[Seul]

Go for it… Trust me...

Will do at some point this month thanks Seul

I always go Kershaw. I'm very brand loyal to them

Spyderco is ok, I don't like the way their knives look pretty much universally

Bokers are ok as well, but that knife looks really uncomfortable in the hand

[Seul]

I'm sure out of the 3, the Kershaw 's the cheapest, no?.. I had some issues with Böker… Let's just say that you should hope and pray nothing goes wrong with your knife as service = 0...

So yeah: Kershaw... And if you want, I'll order a Zing for you with my order and ship it to you (for free).

[DougNg]

Rough rider is probably the cheapest

[Seul]

And the ugliest imo… Never liked that kind of stuff...

[derivative666]

Seul do you have large or small Sebenza?

[Seul]

Small - I have small hands… Which in itself disproves the theory about small-handed men having small... Well you know what...

[Giles]

Egos?

[Seul]

::)

Feet?

[Werder]

my new toy strictly for home use….ONLY

But do let me know either way asap, as I want to pay him within 24 hours…

And I'm the exact opposite. I much prefer a trapper over the rest

Seul/Doug - thanks for the advice guys, much appreciated! Since I'm torn between the traditional stye and the modern fast-openers, I'm going to get both the Rough Rider and a Kershaw…..Seul, I'd like to take you up on your very kind offer, expect a PM shortly

Michael, that Enzo looks very slick, and I'll keep it in mind for the future.
