The best-rated pocket knives

People like having pocket knives not only because they are portable and versatile but also, they can be handy tools in certain situations. It can be used for preparing food while you are camping and don’t have eating utensils, cutting the line when you catch a big fish or working on your woodwork and hobby projects. A pocket knife can also become a defense weapon when needed against threats such as attackers and wild animals. Therefore, having a pocket knife is an ideal decision. In this article, we would like to introduce our best picks of the best rated pocket knives on the market.

CRKT Drifter

Our first pick is CRKT Drifter. The knife costs about $20 to 30$. It offers a compact design, lightweight, and smooth blade deployment. You can easily open and close the knife using only one hand, which is very convenient when your other hand is holding something to cut. The blade is 3 inches long, so there should be no problem keeping them in your pockets. The contoured handle fits both big and small hands, and it has a texturing surface for a better grip. Despite the price, the knife is solidly built and can take on any task.


Blue Ridge ESEE Zancudo

Moving on to the Blue Ridge ESEE Zancudo, another reasonably priced knife for starters. This knife is considered a bigger brother to the Drifter. It has a larger handle, stronger blade, and more metal in the building lock that makes it a tougher knife. While the Drifter is suitable for regular standard tasks, the Zancudo can take on more aggressive cuts. If you are looking for a knife that can cut stronger, better grip, and durability, the Zancudo is the one to get. This knife can be yours just for $32.

Benchmade Mini Griptilian

If money is not the issue and you want something with a premium feel, the Benchmade Mini Griptilian, one of the coolest and best pocket knives in the world, is ideal for you. Though the price tag might be a bit steep, the knife is worth it since it exceeds the others in all aspects-better grip texture, better blade pivot, better blade steel, and lock mechanism. The knife is equipped with a reversible pocket clip that allows you to clip it on either your left or right jean pockets. In case you would prefer something that offers classical sense, you might like this one.


Buck Knives S5

The Buck Knives S5. This knife gives a large vintage feel with its beautiful Woodgrain handle with brass bolster and liners. The blade is made of 420HC Stainless steel. You also get Buck’s Forever warranty when buying the knife. The minor con of this knife is you need two hands to open it. Otherwise, the Buck Knives S5 is an excellent choice.

A final thought

In the world of making high quality pocket knives , Spyderco, CRKT, Schrade, Benchmade, and Buck have been attracting the most attention from the customers, making the market very hard for new players. But there are always reasons for that. Standing above, the high quality of materials and craftsmanship, as well as the excellent customer services, altogether make them stay on top for years. The list of recommended pocket knives above cannot include all the good tools available on the market. So, don’t worry if your knife is not on the list, go for it if there are still a lot of good reviews.

Being a member on here certainly isn't going to help you with this problem. In fact, I found it just makes it worse because you always find just one more idea.

It is not a problem until there is no parking left on and around your block and jeep parts in every room of your house. Anyone got the number of a good shrink?

Certain vehicles are a problem. Minis (especially older minis) are almost as bad.
I got my JK recently - my previous car was an Audi S3 and I did nothing to it. The Jeep is just a big meccano set and the temptation is just too great . I can't stop messing with it. It's a real medical condition...
