>>880839The absolute best bang for your buck knife is undoubtebly the Sanrenmu 7010
>literally $5 on those chinese websites>8cr13MoV blade steel (nothing fancy but a good steel)>solid, all steel design>they make awesome gifts too because they feel like great quality knives, no one would suspect you only spent $5 on themI also own a Ganzo 704 and an Enlan EL02, both could easily pass as a $50 knife but are around $10 to $15
Seriously though, the most enjoyable knives to own and use are old school carbon steel knives like this
>>880857I have the Higonokami, Merkator, Douk Douk, Opinel, Case sodbuster, Okapi, Buck 110, Svord peasant.
All of these are cheap, classic designs made in nice first world countries (mostly) and all of them cut brilliantly, if you're into knives and you down own any of these, then you're missing out
