Cabelas, Alaskan series Buck knives, S30V steel, $106 for the 110 folder, and about $215 for a fixed blade. All Buck's are hand finished. Not custom knives but U.S. made and well done. I have carried a 110 as my primary hunting knife for decades, have rarely needed to use any of the other 10 knives stashed away in the truck or hunting pack.

My original rosewood handle Buck 110 that I have carried for 47 years, and a fancy S30V custom ordered from Buck that my wife gave me for our 35th wedding Anniversary in 2016, that I now use.
