Not saying anything, but Edgeworks and Red Hill Tactical (hagerstown) both have some very nice steel on display. Not all of it is legal to carry but, hey, you can always collect. Then carry when it is no longer a question of legality.
I would also suggest looking at some of the stuff Shiv Works has done. I don't suggest carrying them in Marylandistan, but sometimes you do what you have to. Their push knife is very well thought out. I have handled one belonging to a friend. Not my chosen blade type but it was well made. The clinch pick, however, is another critter. I'd suggest getting the trainer model of either (or both) that you buy as well. Great for manipulation practice. DO NOT use the trainers when working with a partner during FoF. They are steel and will still injure very easily.
