I carry a variety of knife brands, but I suppose if I had to chose one knife to EDC it would be my Sebbie and therefore I'd chose CRK.

Spyderco for me :)

But popular would be (for the normal people out there ;)) -

1. Swiss Army Knife (mainly Vic)
2. KA-BAR
3. Case/Buck (mainly in the US)

Hey Mike,
I've never had a Cold Steel anything, but I do want the Voyager.  What is it about them that you like so much?  The only reason i haven't gotten one yet is because of the price.  How do they compare to Spyderco in your opinion?

Well I've had both, and fine knives :)

But I prefer robustness over finness in that type of knife anyday so the CS Voyager appealed, and got more edc time over any of the Spydies I owned :)

Plus it's got a cool name that reminds me of Jeri Ryan :D

Oh, yeah I saw that.  They do look like great knives.  I'm a little afraid that if I get one that I'll love it so much I'll cheat on my Spydies!  And they won't forgive me for it...ever!  :o

Asked Jay from Warriors and Wonders once which brand was his best seller and no surprise... Spyderco by far, they are in a league of their own apparently.  I like them!

I also enjoy some of Kershaw's stuff, Sog's, and even a few of Cold steel.

that dosn't surprise me, they seemed to have covered everyones blade needs, i always liked less blade beign shown when closed, kinda like a gentlemans folder, but the more i look at spydercos i realise that there knives are designed to cut, i think i will take the spydi plunge soon. :D

Spyderco in my opinion pretty much have something for everyone gentlemen's folders included.  I am lucky in that Warriors buys everything!  They don't go half, he buys whole line!  I can pretty much go down and play with anything on the market before buying.  Not bragging just lucky!  :)
