      Thanks guys.

      It isn’t super flashy or elegant but it is a design suited to its purpose as a folder for heavy work. It comes in at twice the weight of my Para 3 with a blade nearly twice as long and almost half as thick.

      I’m now looking forward to cleaning up and sharpening my Para 3 and giving it the gentler life for which it was designed. In the meantime I’m off to the woods with the Pelican [emoji1]

          Went up to the cabin today with the little ones to give the Pelican a light workout. Never has making bows and arrows for the kids been easier [emoji1]

            @neph93 that picture definitely makes me wish I had a kid. But they would definitely be batshit crazy if they were mine. Wed be out in the woods shooting guns right now.  😃

                @neph93 That is one beautifull EDC!

                  Thank you!

                  Probably not an EDC in the true sense of the acronym. It is big and heavy and too chunky for a lot of small scale everyday tasks. But as an edc for those days I’m outdoors or working on the house it is perfect. I could hack through inch thick birch branches in seconds with minimal effort.

                  That being said it sat comfortably in the righthand back pocket of my IH-555-SST and was quick and easy to deploy from there.

                    I thought the reference was Every Day Child. Lol.

                    Tho an EDCarry crossbow would be cool as hell. Especially for the silly rabbit.

                      Beautiful lil family there, @neph93  🙂

                      Looks like fun was had by all.

                      Edit: same sentiment here @Filthy. My kids would prob be setting shit on fire all the time and be on a first name basis with local law enforcement.  😃

                        Hey @mikebarhoot have you ever run into a guy named Wayne Clifton from Florida at one of your knife shows? He's the US distributor for Due Buoi. They make some incredible switchblades…. I have 2 of them. I have my eye on a bone handled Damascus lever-lock from Mikov though. It is really pricey though. Like a pair of XHS pricey

                            Ha! I have a Mikov with a standard blade that has scales similar to top knife in your posted image, @Filthy.

                                            Just got this last week from a local knife maker - Humble Blades. It's a 1095 Carbon steel chef knife with Lager G10 handles, Tiffany blue and black G10 liners.
