So Blade Magazine did a top ten knives of the decade article. Innovation in design and materials were key considerations.
I have only been making knives a little over a year and wasnt a collector (although I have a lot of knives). My knowledge is limited to what I read and get from these forums...and some real world use of knives.
It looks like 9 of the top ten knives are folders. The only fixed blade is a chefs knife. I wouldnt have thought it would have been that lopsided but what do I know. It seems a little biased to me but thats my opinion.
The one knife that surprised me the most on the list is the Griptilian folder by Benchmade. I am by no means knocking any knife on the list....they are all great works. I dont own this particular knife but it must be an amazing little knife to be top ten of the decade.
My favorite is the Havoc followed by The Strider.
Any knives you guys are surprised didnt make the list or think should have?
