I like the Aquamat - the last one
BUT
these are SCUBA knifes and they are not titanium to be light - they are titanium to be expensive and corrosion resistant. However the third one with the rope cutter and long straight serrated edge looks interesting in a survival sort of way.

I was looking at my knife collection tonight and even my fillet knife is dull. I have a really mean looking Tantau knife and its dull too. ALl of the kitchen knifes are dull and I rarely even take a file to my axe anymore. My hatchetis dull so it won't cut my fingers - if I was dumb enough to hold a stick while splitting it - duh. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

it is my own humble opinion that the vast majority of "cuts" happen when holding the knife in one hand and the work in the other and the knife slips. Use a vise or pliers or something not protoplasmic. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

OTOH my 28" blade Short Sword is razor sharp but I hold it in both hands. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />A friend picked it up and proceeded to play twirly under the arm and over his head while I'm like trying to stand back and whisper "Its got a working edge on it". I could just almost see blood gushing everywhere but he stops and gives me a very solemn sad look and says "I won't cut my self". He has gone into combat with a sword in Asia. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
I would not want to trade his dreams for mine.
