Kershaw

Parent context: Yeah seriously, not to insult OP but aren’t Kerahaw knives more on the “affordable”side? Reply: Just because Kershaw is affordable for you, doesn’t mean it is for everyone.

Most Kershaws seem to be a pretty decent value for the price u pay.

Kershaw was my gateway too. Solid designs, fair prices, and customer service that actually backs the warranty years later. Hard not to respect a company that stands behind their stuff like that.

Kershaw is my favorite knife brand as well I like them more than Spyderco.

While I cannot honestly say that any individual Kershaw is my favorite knife, I can absolutely say that they are my favorite knife company. From the consistent quality of their product, their wide range of prices, high value proposition, and most importantly their excellent customer service (I never had an issue getting replacement parts on my knives) I think Kershaw sets the gold standard for how knife companies should interact with their customers and the broader community.

I use a kershaw in my EDC that has been very reliable for almost 2 years

I have been wanting a Kershaw for more than a decade. Still can't believe I have one.

I got one of their Kershaw knives for my dad for Christmas, and he can't get his hands off it.

Get a $30 Kershaw and you'll have a decent knife you can use for many years.

and the well-known Kershaw pocket knives.
