Requirements
Try the search button at the top and how about your use or needs. Requirements for the usage of this knife.
If your looking for a pocket knife, if you like your Emerson CQC-13 I would get a new one. If not, then we need more to work with.

See this thread. I stumbled on it a while back. Trick: if you use google, and do an advanced search specifiying this website as the domain, you will find things very efficiently especially if you click on the cache link. Consider it a freebie from someone who was once search button challenged.

Excellent tip TFM, thanks. I hear this also works well if you don't want to pay a fee to access the archives of certain sites (e.g., ar15.com).

..........now that's a knife
Maine Guy,
I had the pleasure last week of seeing a Yarborough knife, up close and personal. It was designed by Mr. Bill Harsey (Oregon) who is a member of PS.com and manufactured by Chris Reeve Knives (Idaho). What a thing of beauty. Having had an opportunity to communicate with Mr. Harsey several times and by reading the comments on PS.com, I believe he is a man of high integrity and honesty. You might want to check out some of knives he has designed. Example: Lone Wolf knives produces a nice folder that Bill designed. I think some of the guys on PS.com own it and have been very happy with it. I was going to buy one for my QP but then he said he wanted a damn gun instead. 
Disclosure: I was not paid to endorse any of the companies or people named above.  Seeing as you're a Maine guy I wanted to give you some ideas from the other side of the U.S.

Buy a Harsey T2 or T3
If you are in to B-F folders get the T-3. You can shave with it or fight your way out a bar with it....it can handle all of your needs.

I love Bill's knives and I'm a Strider Knives whore as well, but I really like the Chris Reeves Sebenza in either size for day to day life. Other than Tom Mayo's TnT's, there aren't any better plain pocket knives like that made, in my opinion at least. Price dictates between the TnT and Sebbie.

IMHO, this beats a Sebenza

Scott used to work for Chris Reeve, if I'm not mistaken.

For an everyday carry - Gerber isn't bad, for real hard use - Mr. Harsey makes 'da bomb'
