Best knife

[TheMarf]

Hey,

My first post here.

I recently lost my knife, a Picasso Tiger. So now in the market for a new one. I live in norway, so many hunt Pollack; although there are some large 10kg+ cod around too.

Also planning a blue water trip next year, so something a bit chunky might be good to have.

Any recommendations appreciated

Cheers
Dan

Two best knives I have ever had,

The hottori

this knive is a high carbon steele which will corrode if not taken care of. You can also get a titanium coated one as well. The downfall is that the case can brake so most guys here that use them wrap the case with a synthetic cord, the other downfall is that its a bit heavier so if you drop it it sinks fast... and it almost swims like a squid. We were diving off of a ledge one day when I dropped my knife. I watched as it "swam" from the ledge (40-50ft) out to about 100ft of water where I had to get it. Wasn't too much fun in the current. But it keeps a nice edge, and is a sturdy knife.

and

Wenoka Titanium... mini stiletto

This is the knife I have used for the past 4 years and love it. Not the cheapest on the market so you dont want to loose it... Im on my 3rd but its small yet packs a nice punch. Serrated edge is great for cutting through gill or chest plates, and chumming. Tip is sharp so braining fish is a breeze... Great for blue water, but if your planing on braining 500lb+ fish then you might want to look into a longer blade.

Sheathe is great and once the knife is clicked in its solid. I added a bungee lanyard that I loop around the tip of the sheath when its locked in just for an additional safety precaution.
