Buy the best steel you can afford....whether it be cheap 154cm...or 1095...or d2 or d4....or s30v or s35v....that's where the first big decision is to be made.
After you choose the steel....choose the shape...warncliffe or sheep's foot or recurve or what have you
Those two choices will drastically narrow down your choices. From there it becomes more personal preference...leith, name brand, color of handles, etc...
Personally, I carry a custom Doug Ritter Griptillian with one off Cuscadi scales....and I love it. I am, on the other hand, replacing it with s CRK sebbie

I had a Sebenza and ended up selling it.
Quality knife absolutely no doubt, but it didn't really bring anything else to the party the Ritter did.
Plus the lockup wasn't very strong.
I really liked the ZT560 but it was a bit too much of a heavy lump to carry around.
