    To echo what has already been said, I happily carry in CA, and would say the knife was a gift (if I ever had to use said knife defensively). That being said, I also don’t seek conflict, so this isn’t truly a worry for me. It’s one of those, “we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it” sort of deals.

      Couldn't resist this one. The shape is called 'Le London' here, a classical 19th century sailor's knife. The intarsia shows the ermine spot from the Flag of Brittany.

        @endo The dry salamis and figs will be sliced with the utmost elegance. The brie, however, will still be annoying to cut.

            I agree and I have carried a pocket knife clipped to my side right pocket "tip up" for 40 years plus. My current EDC is a Spyderco Delica 4 with a half-serrated VG-10 blade in black tactical.

            My other knife is based on the fact that I practice FMA (Filipino Martial Arts) is a folding Karambit. Specifically the Fox 599 in Titanium with Elmax stainless steel blade.

            Another essential in my mind is a torch or flashlight as they call it in Canada, which I carry in my back pocket clipped. I use the Nextorch TA30C.

              @endo That is a really nice design. Is it a fixed blade or folder?

                    @mclaincausey beautiful. I think desert ironwood is my favorite natural scale material.

                      @SKT well in that case, I should show you my Spyderco where I replaced the factory micarta:

                                      I sold all my really nice folders when I realized I don’t carry one enough to justify the cost. Today while grocery shopping at Walmart I picked up a couple budget folders just to have something for when I do want it and I’m really impressed.

                                      Top is the Keyshawn Cryo, a Hinderer design flipper with open assist.

                                      Bottom is the CRKT Squid, a Burnley design that’s really a cool little knife. Both have great action and smooth steel frames that won’t eat up my pockets.

                                        Picked up a new CRK Sebenza haven’t had one in years, I grabbed one last week. This is my first time with the new glass blasted. Its sweet! My other Sebenzas I’ve had and sold over the years were sandblasted.

                                        I might send my Umnumzaan over to get done in this finish too

                                          @Matt some mass produced knives are built to pretty decent tolerances, certainly good enough to carry and use. One of the knives I really love to carry a cheap Chinese mass manufactured liner lock that came free with a purchase of a ZT flipper from an online seller, but it feels great in the hand, great action/detente, great steel. I wound up using this freebie more than the knife I actually bought. I love my “nice” knives but they really aren’t necessary, and whatever is in my pocket is going to get properly used, and not caring if it is damaged in the process is key… so I’ve shifted my priorities around cutlery for sure.

                                          Think it, be it.
