So is there any significant differences between these steels? I do not know a whole bunch about steels. And if so, what are the differences? I the type of person that rarely uses a knife, but like to carry one nonetheless. Thanks

If anyone has a comparison pic with these three knives next to each other open and closed I would greatly appreciate it. If not, and you have two of the three, could you post comparrison pics of them. Thanks.

Well yes and no... Whip out a big knife in front of the wrong person, who talks to the right administor... And you can get hassled. I live in a larger city, that has been known for racial and police issues. Use your knife for "self-defense" in the wrong situation would not only cause lega...

Smudge, for your purposes, I'd go with the Endura as long as the intended pocket is deep enough. Are you thinking serrated, partial or plain? I would think serrated would be preferable as it is always ready to cut almost regardless of maintainance. Which ever one I end up choosing I will likely get...

Looking for an inexpensive knife to carry for general purpose stuff (misc cutting) and possible use as self defense as a last resort. I am a police officer, and the knife will be carried either clipped in a pants front pocket (which I really do not like this method of carry), or most likely in a poc...

I like the looks of the newest Endura with combo edge. Problem is that I cannot find them. There is currently one on ebay, but there are 5+ days left in the auction and no "Buy It Now". Could someone tell me where I can get one? Thanks

Just checked ebay and none left!!!

Don't agonize over the choice, get both. If you have a Wal Mart that carries the Native for $39 near you and the Delica 4 going about $43 on line, $80+ is not out of line for two nice knives. You'll find uses for either I'm sure. True, but I would like a combo edge and Walmart only carries the PE.

So what should I do? I really like the looks of that Delica4. Can anyone compare the two of these knives - quality, steel, blade length and cutting length. I was all set to order the Native, but now I am all sorts of confused. And NO, I do not have the funds to buy both. Any help is much appreciated.

Do you mind if I ask you what you paid?

I have an older model Endura where the tip of the blade broke off. If I send it back to them is there any chance that they would replace the blade, or better yet replace the knife? Thanks

Hello:
Need a somewhat inexpensive knife for cutting stuff and possibly self defense. I like the three knives that I listed. What are the differences in quality between them (steel, handle, ect), and which would suit me best (self defense and cutting misc stuff)? Thanks

Happy New year

I wouldn't even go there without some kind of training. If you're needing to ask the question you did, I suspect you might have little to none. I have no training in this area myself and my first thought is **** yeah, it's plenty big enough. But with me, having no SD training with a knife, I'd empl...

I am looking for a somewhat cheap and durable knife to carry for, among other reasons, the possible use of self defense. I am looking at the. I have noticed that the cutting edge on this blade is only a little larger than 2.50" and that the entire blade is just over 3". I am also looking a...

I need something lightweight since I have to wear it all day with a heavy duty belt. Does the police model have the same type of lock? Is this reccommended for my use? THanks

Hello: I am new to the forum and in the market for a new knife. I am a cop and need a knife mostly for cutting stuff (possibly seatbelts and other things that everyone else cuts) and self defense. I do not want anything expensive in the event that I lose the knife. I like the looks, feel and price o...
