Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades
-
got this beauty today. those who read the heritage post might have seen the article about this knife in edition no. 2/2012 on page 144. The blacksmith, Yannick Epiard builds the blades from railing steel dated 13th-15th century, which he found in the cathedral in Reims, France…wow...he got the inspiration of this "piemontais" from an extremely rare find from diggings near a cathedral in London, which seems to be the oldest known pocketknife to date.
A knife from the middle age, back to the roots guys

Ok, I think I'm convinced I need a Chris Reeve knife. Someone tell me where the best selection can be found…
What are you looking for? Sebenza, Mnandi, Umnumzaan, Ti-Lock?

So many variations try www.knifeart.com
Thanks Jeff

Is the Large Sebenza too big for EDC?
It's a big knife, really depends on you and what your looking for. The Ti-Lock is my favorite CRK

Truenorthknives.com also has a good selection
As for size, depends on your intended use and what you're comfortable with. For extended use, I like a 3.5"-4" blade. That's if I'm cutting stuff for more than ten minutes. Most tasks can be handled with something smaller. If you're only going to cut your sandwich in half or open a box or two, 2.25"-3" is what I use
Smaller knives are also easier to carry and alarm people less
