Re: A good fighting knife
The best all around knife I have ever used is a Columbia River Knife and Tool product called the "First Strike". I don't think that they make it anymore, but you could probably find it on the interweb.
The thing is prectically indestructible. It's a beefy, no bullshit knife. I love it.
My buddy Ray swears by the Tom Brown Tracker, which is also sturdy as fuck, but it's pretty huge.

If you want to be successful at anything, you'll need to develop a never quit attitude. Don't let life happen to you. Grab it by the throat and make life dance to your tune.

Re: A good fighting knife
Gave one of these benchmades to my daughter's jarhead boy friend before he deployed to Iraq. Awesome knife to have for one handed ops, but not so good for a screwdriver....fuckwit broke the tip of the blade off trying to repair a radio. So is it for fighting or all around abuse in a combat zone? For all around abuse I'd use a bayonet either M4 or AK47.....if you don't have to wear it all day.

After going back and reading zumbii's intro thread...I am curious...where are you at now?
