Would any one mind comparing this knife to the Kershaw Ken Orion Blur serrated. Thanks

This is my second one first one I broke the tip but love this knife nice smooth spring load

I think the only difference should be the point. This one is a tanto. If you look at the two of them side by side it should be pretty apparent. I personally really like tantos, but that's just me

serrations are the same. one is tanto the other isnt. both similar. both have thin weak liner locks so be careful

Both of my knives are Kershaw Ken Onions. The serratated Ken Onion I own looks very similar to the Tanto. I would expect the Tanto to be a very good knife! Tom Brennan

i have both. i have never seen the benefit of a tanto over the spear point. i took to using the tanto at work as a "beater" blade. it has taken quite a beating and is still going strong. have sharpened it quite a few times. it is an older one (manufacture date is jul 08 stamped on the blade). either knife would serve you well, i just prefer the spear point.

The S30V steel in the Kershaw Blur holds an edge very well and is not that hard to sharpen with the right system. I use the KME sharpening system with the diamond stones. Other diamond stones will work just as well but the KME system keeps the angle of sharpening consistent thereby saving time.

Hard to really compare the those 2 knives. I will start by saying I own both Spyderco and ZT. I have a Spyderco Native, Pacific Salt, Manix 2, and Byrd Cara Cara 2 g10, Byrd Hawkbill. So, I like what I like, I'm not a brand hater. That being said I like the ZT 0350 better. I fits my needs better. More of a working fit, with edc carrying capabilities. I like bigger knives better. I like the weight feels right too me. I like the blade size better. It's a wide, thick blade, not too long so when I need to work up on the tip of the blade it feels better, not too long. Plus it's American made. In short Spyderco Police 3 - majors in reach (great long knife, over a 4 inch blade). Good self-defense knife Minors in work (blade is long and thin, hard to work up on the knife). I would be afraid I would break the tip. Good intimidation factor. ZT 0350ts - Majors in work (great user length knife, solid wide blade.) I like the weight Minors in reach ( not a super long knife 3 1/4", fast deployment though, handle shape is really easy to grip) I like the ergonomics. Tiger stripe gets a wow a lot so far.I think it sets it apart from all my silver or black knives. ZT 0350 TS is better (in my opinion)

Sorry man, just looked at the picture myself. This picture has changed since I bought mine, which was a non-serrated and the picture previously showed a non-serrated blade.

Hi Ellie, I'm not that knowledgeable but here's an idea. The military has a whole different set of needs and choices (automatic, true tactical, combat, etc) Take a look at KnifeCenter http://www2.knifecenter.com/ For an every day carry knife I like the Kershaw Onion Tactical Blur, inexpensive, made well, hold a good edge - very good value for the $. Hope this helps - Blessings

I bought one from them, it shipped fast and didnt have any problems with it. Good knife but if i had to buy another one it woukd be the one without the double ...opener flick things at the bottom of the blade. Its too wide and scratches your hand when you put it in your pocket.

I'd own both, because you can never have enough knives. Price is the real talking point. The Becker bk2 is 20 dollars more. For the price Schrade SCHF9 keeps an amazing edge, and comes with a great sheath. The sheath is large enough to carry some gear making it a great survival knife.

I like the knife my friend has the same brand but not as good a model his works very well but gets. Hotter with prolonged use I have used mine for 4 hours straight without stopping his he needs to let rest every so often . I also like the blades that came with mine it easy to do small fish with the blades that are 1/2 the thickness but they can be bought separate . I have bought and and still have a Berkley knife and a tatertwister knife they was a a waist of money in my opinion . I hope this helps you make your mind .

Well I can't speak for the Gerber Bear Grylls Ultimate Survival Knife because I have never owned one. But I can tell you the SOG is an amazing knife, I don't regret the purchase at all. In fact I have 2 of these and 2 of the "pup" versions of this knife.

I like Spyderco - very good knife and may actually carry better when wearing dress slacks. For me, comes down to personal preference. I carry my ZT more often because I prefer the speed opening and it fits my hand better. Either knife is a great choice IMHO.

In my opinion this knife can't be so easily compared to those other brands because its not just a mass produced factory knife. This thing is a beast and I'd buy it before any of the others. It's thicker and heaver than an Ontario or kbar or cold steel and it just looks better and feels better in the hand. Just my opinion, but get it and you wont regret it.

The Randall RAT 4 is an excellent choice. Similar in price, I think a little less. Currently there is an Ontario version, which is decent, but Randall is the original designer. I also really like the KaBar Becker line. The BK 16 is very close in comparison and cheaper. The Beckers are easier to sharpen, however they have to be cared for to prevent corrosion. And your absolute cheapest, is gonna be a Mora. They can be had for $20ish. Or more depending on quality and sheath options. They are a good cheap blade. But very susceptible to rust. If you have more questions I am happy to answer as best as I can. These arent armchair opinions either. I own or have friends who own, and we use them in the woods.

The one I received had just a plain edge which I prefer with the cutting tasks that I do. I carry my leatherman wave that has a full serration blade so I do not like to have the serrations. The model of the spyderco tenacious that I ordered just had a plain edge. Make sure to check in the specs below the knife to see if it mentions that the knife has serrations. If you still don't know you can contact the seller and ask. I don't know if the black model has the serrations or not if that's what your asking but look around and I'm sure you'll find something!

If your worried about the price tag I'm guessing you don't know much about knives. Gerber, kershaw Buck ect are trash compared to this knife. If you dull it you can send it back and they will refinish the blade. Watch some youtube videos on this knife. Once you hold it in your hand you will know you made the right choice. I take mine with me when I go hunting. It's the nicest fixed blade knife I've ever owned. For the price tag how can you not buy it? Look at some other high end fixed blade knives. Not the junk they have at walmart.

the blade is a normal drop style blade if you get non serrated , i believe the serrated blur blade is the tanto style.
