Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades

All great points. Personally if I was looking at an axis type of lock then I'd go Benchmade. If going framelock, I'd go Sebenza, which has a bushing to keep it from being over tightened and also keeps the blade centered (google it).

I guess tomorrow I will be making the dreaded trip down to Pier 39 to WeBeKnives… Been there before and know it is one of the only spots in SF but it is a bit expensive. I will go and handle everything you have all discussed and make a decision. I normally would go onto the Internet right after going into the shop and find the item much cheaper, but as it is basically the only spot in SF of its kind I will prob pay extra to support it. Pictures to come. Might have a new blade tomorrow!

Webeknives is fairly pricey for production knives, but they are one of the few places that carry customs as well. I once picked up a Deryk Munroe folder there at an amazingly low price. I got luck, they didn't even know who the maker of the piece was.

Giles, Caswells are nicely done. I think you'll enjoy the way the pocket clip retracts into the spine of the knife.

Lando, what did you get?
Nothing yet. Did not have time this past weekend. Possibly this week…
