Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades
-
Picked these up today, green for myself and the black is a Father’s Day gift for my dad. -
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?

folder @Denman-John

Hiroaki Ohta friction folder in desert ironwood today
-
@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:

Nice!
Picked up this Begg Knives slipjoint the other day. £50. Very solid and nicely made
-

@mclaincausey Love Ohtas. I’ll have to get a pic of the family.

@Anesthetist I also have these guys. I really don’t understand how his stuff is at such low price points
-
@mclaincausey me either, his craftsmanship is superb
Nice collection!

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.
