No love for the Des Horn? It's definitely my go-to for formal occasions.
As much as I love the Spyderco clips (and the Des is a great specimen) dress pants do not hold knives well. I like to carry in my waistband.
Lava for dress pants???

Re: Lava for dress pants???
I usually stick to grey or black folders. Colored G10 doesn't blend easily, imho.

You do realize this thread is from 2007, don't you? The Des Horn wasn't even a concept at the time.

This thread is pretty entertaining...what is going on with reviving this thread so many years later and asking why there are pictures of knives on a knife forum....

Picture this, if you will, as a highly practical form of "accessorizing" :DBluebonnets wrote:Hi,

Welcome to the forums; hope we can give you a chance to learn about our own style.
Re: Lava for dress pants???
The OP question was not really about using a knife as a fashion statement, but mainly about selecting a light, inconspicuous knife, I think.Bluebonnets wrote:Hi,

I know the OP has already ordered a Lava, but I just got a G-10 Urban recently. I don't wear dress pants, but I think it will be my main knife in situations like this for a long time to come. It's similar to the UKPK but even smaller and lighter and could easily be dropped into the bottom of the pocket if you don't want to clip it.
Edit: Ha ha I didn't even notice there was a second page, let alone that the thread was 8 years old. I didn't know Lavas even existed back then and had never seen the stainless steel model :D
