Benchmade looks better. That said, I have a hard time spending $100+ on something I'm going to drop in the dirt and forget somewhere. Bought a couple of Kershaw Skylines of Kershaw Blem Guy for cheap and never looked back

This is where I'm at with most of my blades... I have a couple Kershaw Comebacks that I got off Woot for like $25 for beating up on.
Really kinda hard to beat the value on these dudes. Can find them under $10USD on sale sometimes. The carbon steel version takes on a wicked edge. Lock is surprisingly easy to get use to, and is extremely stout. The patina they get over time is also frankly amazing.

I have taken mine on every bike tour I have ever done! Cuts cheese and salami like a boss! I am not a big knife guy so it works for me. I also have and Old Timer I carry around sometimes.
The downside to the Opinel is it’s kinda big and no clip. I have girl pants.
I wear a Super Air. I wore a Super DH before that. Chinbar tucks into my Fanny pack or clips onto backpack. I like it. Haven’t tried the alternatives with a chinbar.
I had a Giro Switchblade. Thing runs hot! The faceplate came unclipped in a bad crash. Wasn’t stoked on that. Guess I’m stoked I still have a face?
I've been pretty happy with my TLD Stage. The fit around the ears needs some fine tuning but it's much more vented than the switchblade. That helmet fit my head like a glove, though. Really comfy.

I have one with a corkscrew in the handle. Its a nice knife.
