Knife's cool but I really like those pliers. Now if they'd only shaped the ends of the handles into a standard and phillips screwdrivers, you'd have a very nice minimalist airport-friendly multitool.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Out of all the cold steel folders I picked up recently, I didn't expect to like this one much. Figured the Recon 1 would be my favorite for carry. But this one may have taken the throne from the C95 for the most ergonomic folder I've used.
Wish it didn't have such a dramatic belly but I'm getting used to it. To me the ideal EDC blade shape is something like the Police 3.

Instant classic
The thumb stud second Drift was great but a little small for my hands with a large but unusable choil. This Drift L scales it up but is still incredibly thin and light with a seriously nice grind. If I had the option I was going to go with a belt satin blade, but the stonewash looks near mirror in person and isn't as much of a fingerprint/gunk magnet. They get props for only using one size torx for all the bolts, and only on one side as a bonus. Even put the framelock cutout on the inside where it should be :)

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
that looks really well made. I like the idea of one size bolts for the entire knife.
if they come out with an XL version I'll be tempted. Not keen on metal scales usually but that texture looks grippy.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
That was quick Salty!! Micarta scales and all. Is that the 3 inch?
I saw a a couple decent 3.5's on ebay that weren't outrageously priced, but did want to pay the shipping and ebay fees so I held off.
Salty - if you get a 3.5 at the show and decide the 3 isn't for you anymore...I know a guy!

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
That's a 3"
The pivot "touches" the tip down clip recess on the 3" models. There's a small gap on the 3.5"

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
It’s the 3” non-flipper 20cv…that day I had seen enough Hinderers to push me over the edge we got rained out so I pretty much scoured the whole dang web and found a pretty good deal on Arizona Custom Knives…they had loads of 3.5’s Rick so you might wanna check them out if you haven’t already…it’s right up there with my CRK Small Sebenza Insingo, like Jeff said when you know you knowTkoK83Spy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2024 7:39 amThat was quick Salty!!
