[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 4239601, member: 684"] I tried being a knife snob, but I just could not fathom the ideology behind it. I'm no metallurgical genius, so I don't know one steel from another. :scratch: The lazy in me prefers stainless: easy to maintain, no rust (usually) and can take some light abuse. The trade off is, it dulls quickly and is generally a PITA to sharpen and [i]keep[/i] sharp. Some of my favorite brands are (please forgive me) cheap chinese companies such as Civivi, Sencut and the budget line from Spyderco (Tenacious family - NOT the Byrd models). Of course, day in/day out, if I'm vertical, you're gonna find a Victorinox (or two ;)) in me pocket. The Alox scale Cadet and Farmer are me favorites and they travel with me every where I may roam.
