I'm in need of a new pocket knife and have narrowed my choices down to three knives, the three knives being. The SRM Terrier 258L- MG2, The Kershaw Mini Irididium, and The Real Steel Perix. I'd love to hear y'alls opinions on and experiences with these knives.

The SRM may be the most bang for buck, but I works go with the Kershaw every time. It’s a well designed knife

I couldn’t ever bring myself to buy an SRM considering their first major foray into knives was basically a Sebenza clone.
I picked up the SRM 255L-GE2, so slightly smaller size, a week or two ago when they were on sale at Knifecenter and I really like it, it came with a very sharp edge and the axis lock feels good. If the Kershaw mini iridium you’re looking at is the D2 steel version, which I also recently picked up and also like, then I’d take the SRM over the Kershaw D2 for it’s stainless steel. I don’t have a Real Steel so can’t speak much to that one, but nitro-v steel probably wouldn’t be a bad choice.
I’d pick the SRM, in 140Cr it is one of the very best value knives for ~$70.
