I have the Benchmade 551 with the plain edge and it is my absolute favorite EDC knife. It is well made and I highly recommend it, you can't go wrong with BM 551. Good luck!
Hey Everyone! Thanks for the advice. I am looking into everyone knife that you guys have mentioned so far. I have been looking at the Benchmade knives and for whatever reason the Benchmade Griptillian Sheepsfoot knife, http://www.knifesupply.com/eshop/10Expand.asp?ProductCode=BM550SBKHG, and the Griptillian 551 knife, http://www.benchmade.com/products/551, seems to be sticking with me. Does anyone here have these knives and input about them? Also, as I mentioned I am new to knives and do not know a lot, what is the difference between a regular Griptillian and a Griptillian Sheepsfoot-is it just the name??
Also, what is easier to open, a knife with a thumbhole in the blade or a knife with thumb studs on it?
As for size, I just wanted something that is small enough to fit in a pocket, somehere between 2 to 5 inches. Please keep the suggestions coming, it can't hurt to have too many opinions!!
Thanks!!
