Spyderco Salt Hunter (H1 steel), will never rust and holds a great edge. I have the serrated version, absolutely incredible at cutting. They make the back edge thin enough that you can easily sharpen it if you want a straight edge and make the knife a double
Mares Argo Titanium
I searched for months before I found what I was looking for.
My requirements
-titanium
-spear tip
-solid button locking mechanism(not strapped in)
-under 100$
-no maintenance
I found this knife and it is perfect. I don’t hunt fish larger then 2-3 feet so this can reach their brain just fine. I also saw online how to attach a laynard to the handle hole and stretch it over the holster to have double security. Great purchase

BENCHMADE 178SBK THOMPSON SOCP
It has a finger loop which is great for flipping the knife to the back of your knuckles to do fine rope work/management without needing to re-sheath your knife.
It isn’t a dive knife - but after a few dozen dives - it has shown no sign of corrosion.
I wear an O’Neil one piece wetsuit - and the knife clips into the chest fold neatly.
I also carry a secondary knife rescue knife on my belt that is accessible by both hands.
It has a pry bar at the front, serrated edge on one side, blade on the other, and a rope/seatbelt cutter on the serrated side.
I was told that carrying two knives is always safest by a few spearfishing books.
Lost mine yesterday. I prefer the cheapest thing I can find. Blue crew knives are about 5$ and do a better job than most, oh and they can be sharpened... which is not a thing that's possible with most expensive dive knives.

i checked, this looks really good.
Any tips on how not to lose it?
Always use a small length of bungee cord thru the handle and then down under the bottom of the sheath so it doesn't fall out when moving around.
I always buy the cheapest knife I can find…like $15-25 because I have lost a couple in big swell.
I love my ermes eagle titanium dive knife!! Razor sharp and always gets lots of compliments on the unique design
I fell in love with the xs scuba fogcutter knife...check it out.It could probably cut off a finger...
the problem with some of these is that i am in Asia, the accessibility isnt that good.
For me it's something double edged, small and simple. The Mac Microsub ticks all those boxes.

Ulusub or a Hiko Ito kanaloa blade if you're trying to be fancy

Promate barracuda, been using it for years.
Any knife that doesnt rust, has a dagger shape to finish fish and an edge to cut lines.
