Buck Sirus

Does cold steel of kershaw make better knives?

I am thinking about getting a cold steel tilite or a kershaw leek or possibly a buck sirus. If you have had any experience with these knives please give it to me. thanks

Cold Steel while not made in the U.S. are still good knifes. I EDC a 2″ Mini Tanto as my third knife for over 16 years. Recently the scales fell off and were lost, they are no longer available. My #2 EDC for the last 11 years has been a Kershaw Chive and it is still on my belt behind my Blackberry. I move between 2 EDC primary knives a 1996 Benchmade/Emerson CQC-7 and a Emerson Model I folder.

I have gotten great service from all of them, and I rate them as follows:

1) Emerson
2) Cold Steel or Benchmade (Blue or Black Box product)
3) Benchmade (Red Box – made outside of US) or Kershaw

All of the 2nd and 3rd tetieruys have non US products, not neccessarily bad. I have had good results all of them.

Value for the dollar = Benchmade Blue Box.
Decent value for entry price Kershaw is good as a first knife.

Hope this helps.
