gummibear Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I'm also thinking of replacing with another one, but wondering if I should try something else.I like the CRKT 2 Stage compact with tanto blade and glass breaker Lurch the stalker 1
Lurch the stalker Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I like the CRKT 2 Stage compact with tanto blade and glass breaker Looks good, and would be easier to sharpen than the tanto with serrations I had.
lyslexic Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Seriously annoyed, I lost my CRKT M16-SFG over the weekend.Now to decide on a replacement...  M21 ? Foresight? Which M16 was it, 12, 13 or 14? Suppose that also depends on the suggestion to what to replace it with.

Letum911 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I'm also thinking of replacing with another one, but wondering if I should try something else. I think you should consider it's main use before buying. Personally I have (for the second time) the M16-01 (the smooth spear point), as a utility knife I do not like the tanto blade shape nor do I ever use the serrations. So a smooth even blade is my only option when it comes to my work knives, my CRTK and Spyderco Delica 4 are my 2 daily carry options which fulfill all my needs. If you primarily use it as a self defense weapon I do believe the tanto to be a better "stabby" option.
lyslexic Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 It was the 14  Have a look at the foresight. I think it's a nice replacement for the 14.

Letum911 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 It's primarily EDC for self defense.    Then I would rather go for the Keramin or some other lightweight Karambit, initially I thought the Karambit is a bit more of a gimmick than anything else but it seems to hold it's weight in the SD EDC groups. And as a utility it can be backed up by a Deejo folder, super lightweight so shouldn't be an issue with creating a heavy EDC setup. gummibear 1

Letum911 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Hmmm, making things hard here . If money was no issue, and it's purely for SD, I would then go for the Spyderco Civilian. One mean looking monster!! Lurch the stalker 1
