Not a bad price either.

How's 12C27 for steel?

It's...Scandinavian. So, good stuff.

Decide on a knife?

Nice.

And... I'm not 100% certain, but am leaning towards either the SOG Flash II or the Spyderco Delica 4. The Flash II is a tad cheaper, and assisted which is fun (when it works <_<). But I hear great things about the Delica's steel, VG10 (vs. AUS8 for the Flash II). I know the Flash II opens fast and is reliable in that area, but I have no idea how the Spyderco is in terms of mechanics. :\

Also, what do you think of these knives?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009V ... d_i=507846

http://www.amazon.com/Buck-110-Folding- ... 146&sr=8-3

I don't know much at all about the Kershaw at all, but have heard good things. I'm pretty sure I'd like the Buck. Only question about the Folding Hunter is... how's 420HC for steel? I think I asked you that before, but can't remember.


Tough decision is tough. XD

Mechanically, the Delica's great. I've taken it apart a couple times, and I'll vouch for it's good construction.

So far as the Kershaw goes, I'd not pay $50 for 440A. I've heard good things about Kershaw though. Look into the Kershaw Skyline.

The Buck 110 is a good blade. But, 420HC sucks XD. I mean, it won't rust fast, which is good, but it's edge holding ability isn't wonderful.

Honestly, I hate to sound like a salesman, but the best stainless steel knives for the price are the Spyderco Delica 4 (VG10) and the Spyderco Native (older ones in S30V, VG10 newer).

Looked at the Benchmade Griptilians?

Why do King Behemoths suck so much? I got in a fight with one of 'em and an oversized dogthang. The KB went and epicslashed me just as I was about to deliver the death blow. He did almost 2000hp of damage and killed me. I know, I know... that's a drop in the bucket compared to a maxed out characters... but for me... that was death. :(

Should I just forgo random stuff and pursue the main quest until its over... then come back and grind out to max levels and weapons and stuff?

Ah.

Yeah, I saw the 440A soon after I posted... and went, "ain't that what all my crappy blades have?" XD

So I think I may pass on that for now. I like the look of the 110, but not the functionality. I mean, it works great... yeah. But I am looking more for something I can just flip out of my pocket when needed, not a hunting knife exactly (though really any knife can be used for cleaning animals XD).

And yeah. That Delica 4... man, it gets good reviews. So doesn't VG10 steel. So really, I think it comes down to the Delica 4 and the Flash II in the end.

I just looked up them Griptilians... nice knives. Though a tad on the pricey side, I can't seem to find them for less than $70 on Amazon. Really nice looking, though. If you've seen it cheaper, lemme know. :p

Yeaaaah, those things are nasty. That dog/KB fight is a great grinding spot though. I recommend killing the KB first and then the weaker dog. Works better that way at lower levels. Though know that maxed out, Light/Fang/Snow take out those two in about 4-5 seconds. Yeah. Maxing out levels is boss. XD

And... besides maybe a little bit of grinding, yeah... I think it's better to beat the story first so that you open up the crysterium fully, and then doing everything else. That's what I did, and was thankful for it. XD
