It's bigger than I'm used to, but when it comes out, regardless of the use, you know it means business. __________________________ But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. | |||

OK, here is my little Emerson collection. There are a few more I'd like to get, as I can afford them. I'm looking for (one day) a Persian Tactical and a new one coming out some day soon the "Patriot". I wish I'd started with Emersons, I know I won't buy any other make now. I've thought of selling my others to buy more Emersons. From top to bottom: Mini-CQC-7BT, CQC-7 Stonewashed, Mini-Commander, Roadhouse BT, and CQC-8 BTS. This message has been edited.

Question to anyone who might have an opinion...The CQC-15 is supposed to be a combination of the tip of a CQC-7 and the width and curves of a Commander...The best of both. But is it the best of both? I'm looking at it and I like it...But as I understand it Ernest Emerson designs a knife to fit a purpose, to do a job. That's what I like about them, they are generally ideas that people had to do a job and he listened to them. I guess the CQC-7 is as close to a utility knife as he makes...But these others are unique. | |||

I'll Play, here are a few of mine currently in the rotation. The Emerson is a Desert Roadhouse. | |||

The Roadhouse is awesome...Very impressive... | |||
|
Just mobilize it |
I was digging my mini CQC-7 with the wave so much that I ordered a Spyderco Delica with the wave feature. It is such a smooth and quick deployment that I wish all my blades had it now. | |||

Now that is cool! "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead." Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock "If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it." Clarence Worley | |||

I am thinking about buying an Emerson and was concerned of the same thing. Am I misunderstanding then wave feature, but you don't have to use this option if you carry it differently? | |||

gator97, yes the use of the wave feature is up to you. If you feel better opening it another way that will work too. "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead."

You know, I practice with the Wave opening...But typically I don't use it because I see it as something you might need in an emergency. I also think it'll tear up my jeans pocket. They do make a pretty cool holster with a wave opener I'm thinking of getting...Check out the demonstration videos...Talk about Rapid deployment! http://www.emersonknives.com/videos/RAPID.mpg http://www.emersonknives.com/e...ems.php#ShoulderRigs This vid shows the Russian Cosmonauts using an Emerson in space to cut sausage... http://www.emersonknives.com/videos/nasa.mpg | |||

And I found some Emerson Combat Karambit videos on Youtube...This stuff is cool, but I doubt I could move that fast... | |||

Cool video. Need to watch it slower so I can see what he did. | |||

Desert Roadhouse BT is nice... What is it about the Roadhouse that is so appealing...other than it was the only bad movie Patrick Swayze ever made. It is a beefy 6.2oz...looks pretty hefty...Definitely a unique design...Here's the sales pitch:
Well...it worked...Roadhouse Plainedge BT on the way from Blade HQ...Ernest better have put a bottle of JD in the box...This message has been edited. Last edited by: Czechvar, | |||
