I have been looking at dive knives for weeks and was hoping to get a little advice.
What is a good dive knife to get?
Titanium or Stainless ? ( Stainless seems to take extra care but easier to sharpen )
Attach to leg or BC ? I had a dive instructor buddy say, she preferred to attach her knife to her leg. I am leaning this way because I feel like there is so much attached to my BC already.
Blunt tip / sharp tip or tanto ? Leaning blunt as most places recommend this option for scuba divers and I wouldn't want to accidentally jab myself or my gear.
Size? Personally the knives I have liked are all around the medium to larger size.
Sheath or Folding knife? I've seen some cool folding knives but really leaning towards a Sheath knife as I can imagine opening a folding knife with my 5 mil gloves would not be fun.
I was really leaning towards
Big Squeeze Knives - Aqua Lung CA - Recreational and Professional Scuba Diving Gear
But it only comes in titanium with a sharp tip.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
