I've been researching knives and Im wondering if there are any poaler bears who have experience on the subject. There has to be more nice, well balanced, forged kitchen knife companies in the USA than the internet is letting on. The best I'm finding are in Japan and china. The American ones seem to be clunky and heavy based on reviews.

One of my mini-careers has been in professional cooking, so I appreciate what you are saying about having good knives for the kitchen. I also like to carry a good folding knife, it's amazing how often I find a use for a knife in daily life

I have a multi tool I spent too much money on back when I worked construction. It's got simple tools like a file, flat head and filips head in it plus a serrated knife, saw and regular strait blade. Thats the only thing I got that folds up other than cheap folding razor blade knives with replaceable blades. I have an antique "old timer" folding blade I don't wanna use because it's from my great grandad and it sits next to my fine jewelry.

I'm a big fan of badass tools no matter the category. I bought a damn hypertherm plasma cutter because I couldn't decide on a cheaper brand that didn't specialize in plasma cutters. I miss having my hands on the tools but I do love being a mom more
