Yeah we are certainly something else. I started off wanting just a simple cutting tool, I got a folding credit card knife and evolved from there. I have different knives for different purposes. I have super good cardboard destroyers, and knives with great actions and fit and finish.
In my circle of edc enthusiasts, most of us just go for knives that do it all. Shirogorov for example are almost all 12 thou bte, with great heat treats, amazing fit and finish AND fun actions. I'm a have it all kind of guy. I love a good action. I love cool finishes and fun materials. But the knife still has to perform well. I don't think I have a folder that doesn't cut well. These days it has to do it all for me, because it's not hard these days to find something that do it all.
Like I have a bardley marias vector right now, one of my favorite carbon fibers, amazing detent, super smooth teflon washer, and great lockup, super thin bte. Popping it open puts a smile on my face, and that counts for a lot to me
Just listen to that thwack and look at that smooth washer action! Man I love knives.
