I myself like the HxD editor, it's quite capable and still free: http://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/
But what works best for me when picking some application is actually to download a bunch of them and try them out and pick the one that I like the best.

Hex Workshop is also nice.

VI for Unix/Linux makes a good hex editor.
VIM (Vi IMproved) makes a good hex editor for Linux.
EMACS also makes another good hex editor for Linux, though it is abit on the "heavy" side.
Bluefish is also another good hex editor for Linux.
My personal preference however would be Vi IMproved.
There's almost nothing (with-in reason) that can't be done using it.
