First EDC, Bestechman Dundee Magnacut vs Kershaw Iridium
Pretty torn but if anyone had any thoughts on these two vs one another, that would be great. Mainly going to be used pretty lightly outside of possible skinning sheep once or twice a year. Thanks for the advice!
Dundee. Bestech does a phenomenal job and that knife will outlast you.
Iridium is no slouch but I really just hate the idea of my sole user having omega springs which can randomly break. The iridium is a great option if you must have a solid budget crossbar lock, but that’s really all it is.

Personally, if you’re using it for skinning sheep, I’d favor a small fixed blade. Don’t have to worry about the action getting gunked up like you do with a folder. Even if you want a folder, I’d consider getting an inexpensive fixed blade for that duty in particular.
Thay being said, between those two, as much as I don’t like liner locks personally the Dundee is probably the better value especially with the Magnacut vs the D2 on the Iridium.
