Re: Three inch EDC Elite!

I'm pretty much in agreement with bh49. 3.5" blades are legal everywhere I've been in the past couple years except downtown Greenville, and still small enough to fit comfortably in the bottom of my back pocket. For those reasons, plus the fact that it fits my hand like it was built for me, one...

Re: Three inch EDC Elite!

Now you just need a Sage! The Sage 4 is a lockback, so it would fit in your collection well, though I prefer the 3 with blue G10. In general, I too think 3" is about the sweet spot for EDC. The whole package is small enough that it is so easy to carry in almost any manner one prefers, and 3&qu...

Three inch EDC Elite!

I just love my 3 inch Spyderco mid-locks I'm calling them my EDC Elite! I just got the Native 5 CF 110v and I am just so pleased with the quality of this knife. I would say the fit and finish on this knife are second to none to any I have personally experienced. I am a huge fan of the 3 inch lockbac...

This is my Cold Steel Norse Hawk (custom), it is actually my most used edged tool. I use it every day in and around the yard. It's very fun to hack off a two inch thick green limb from a cottonwood or chinese elm in one chop! http://i1304.photobucket.com/albums/s534/nemarchant/Norse4_zps3f4ee403.jpg...

That's a cool little knife..I've always admired the Al Mar knives, 275.00 for the mini knives is pretty steep in my view..they are very cool though.

I think the Delica/Salt is perfect for EDC, in fact I've been out of town for a few days now on vacation in Seattle, Salt 1 is my preferred EDC blade.

There once was a man from Nantucket
who kept all his knives in a bucket
He played with his knives like a cat with nine lives
as he cut off a finger he'd suck it....
