Best value – Levon: Real Steel Megalodon 2017, Dave: Steel Will’s sub-$100 offerings, Ruike, Boker Plus Tech-Tool, Jake: Tecut Zero
Knife that inspires envy: Jake: Sharp By Design Archnemesis, Borka Blades mStich, Dave: Rotten Designs, Steelcraft Bodega Levon: Damasteel WE Knives, Sharp By Design Archnemesis
Pretty quick knife: Dave: Boos Blades Smoke TS1, 2017 Kizer models, Levon: Olamic Swish (Egyptian Swish)
Twice the knife for half the price: Unanimous: Vipon, for their formerly insane Kizer deals
My new favorite: Dave: not the Giantmouse GM3, Jake: WE 714 Slipsteam, Levon: Sharp by Design Mini Typhoon
A little tank: We instead talk about Boker Plus
Perfect slim EDC: We begrudgingly admit that we should probably try a Benchmade Bugout, Dave: Boos Blades Smoke TS1

Most beautifully engineered knife: Rike and Liong Mah designs
Surprise personal hit: Levon – Hinderer XM slippy
