I just ordered the Terra with the light blue handle and satin blade, and the Havrog with the khaki handle and stone washed blade. Those are some damn good looking knives.

I don't know if they are top rated, but check out Pro Tech.

Microtech, ProTech, Benchmade probably make the best production autos. Kershaw Launch series is a good place for more budget friendly options. Gerber O6 that's a decent middle of the road option if you want something hefty.

Ain't what it used to be. Still good about replacing, but after breaking/chipping blade on Freeman folder 2x in about a year, I said f- it

I have several microtechs and a couple of Benchmade.
If you aren’t 1st responder, Benchmade won’t work on their automatics ( I may be wrong on this but it’s what their website says).
The microtech ultratech is one of the better ones. I have 3 and gave my daughter one to carry while away at school for protection. Also have a combat troodon that is great.
Their warranty is very good.

Cheap knives are cheap knives. Expensive knives are more about how you feel about them than how they perform.

I like my Civivi but I didn’t realize it was Chinese when I bought it

Got the Havrog in last week and the Terra came in yesterday. They are bough some hefty feeling knives, I'll tell ya that! I dont see myself carrying the Havrog as an EDC, but more of a hiking/camping/hunting carry because the handle is a little thicker than I like for every day. But that Terra, sheeeeeeeit! that one is a slick knife. Glad I went with the light blue handle as everything else in my arsinal is mostly hunter's green or tan. That light blue is a nice change, and looks really nice with the satin blade. Very pleased with these products, although we will see how they hold up over time.

Cheapest knife I own is a $10 Benchmade knockoff from Walmart lol.
D2 steel, slide lock folder.
It's been a beast for the price.

After this thread, I bought a Milwaukee folder from Home Depot. $14 and it’s very solid and very sharp. Great tool knife that you can bang around hard. Red scales is the only downside, but a little black Sharpie action fixed that. There are 2 sizes with a $12 version too that is a little smaller.

China blades are ok until they need sharpening.
