4in fixed blade thoughts

[kniferbro]

.00027 is really thin for a blade IMO

 

[Seesteel]

I don't know why but I never really warmed up to the heft or bonded to it.
It feels good in hand but is lifeless and cold to me if that makes sense...

Poor cold soul, You can send it to me asap.
I'll certainly be giving heft a warm welcome as soon as it arrives!
Seriously, let me know.

What about the most recent one I sent you?

Two tenths and 70 millionths is a tad skinny for most things.

You haven't sent me a 4in blade Matt.

Nice selection. Ever tried iwb?

Ive carried an esee 3 iwb in the factory sheath. If I do it again I'll probably get one of the Ariimus sheaths. I carry an izula ii or similar sized fixed blade a lot too. I always carry a folder too though.
I find a fixed blade handy and useful.

I have but it's not my favorite, plus where I live currently doesn't allow concealing fixed blades.

Yeah, but just think about how you could slice a tomato...or an atom...

 

[Insipid Moniker]

You're tempting me to give that a try. I usually carry a nice, slicey folder with a blade under 3" and then a larger folder for the rare occasions I need more blade or leverage. I've often thought changing the larger folder to a fixed would actually give me a lot more versatility in use, but the convenience factor has kept me with folders so far.

Don't slice an atom. Things get explodey.

Or yourself lol I doubt you'd realize you were cut till after the fact.

Let me know if you want to try this style of carry out, I can send you one if you don't have a suitable fixed blade for a utiliclip.

I think I'm actually gonna order a utiliclip and try it out with some of the fixed blades I have. If I like it I may have to start pinching pennies for a Fiddleback Production Kephart.

Just make sure to research their site. there are multiple sizes and types with different attachment plate lengths as well. I recently got the new small size and its just as solid as the standard version but half the size.
