Our newest high-conviction pick
Camel
One of the best budget folders on the market, period. Buttery smooth action and a rock solid button top liner lock for under $40.
Why it made the cut: this is a knife that punches way above its price. Steel, lockup, action, and looks all land in territory usually reserved for knives at double or triple the cost. At $37 to $42, there isn't a better value folder on the market right now. If you want a knife that feels this good for this little money, this is it.
Gear we wouldn't hesitate to recommend
Not everything makes the cut. These are the products we'd have no problem recommending to a friend.
Premium steel at a price that doesn't usually come with it.
Four lights, one flat body, and a UV mode you'll actually use.
A titanium box cutter. Yes, really. Yes, it's worth it.

A tank of a MOLLE pouch that goes everywhere. Cheap enough to run several, one as a tool kit, one for first aid, one for whatever else.
Two beams, one light, and a price that embarrasses the competition.
