I like the NW Ranger. It was the first SOG blade I bought. Field Pup may be easier to make less noticeable. I just received a Spyderco Moran model yesterday that I am experimenting with. (Sorry, it is not a SOG.) I think Bob Dozier Sheath A would work better, but I am playing with this Moran model. It is pretty adjustable. Still not concealed, but not noticeble with jacket or shirt that hangs down (un-tucked). I wanted something (non-custom) that I don't feel bad if it gets scratched, but still fills the bill. Razor sharp out of the box.

Fixed blade EDC's can be a legal problem. Police here frequently view them as being carried for defensive/offensive purposes only unlike a fixed blade that you would carry out in the woods or on a hike. Out of sight is usually out of mind.

Well yeah

Better half bought a new suite. So I spent a few hours taking out some anger on the old sofa. Used the Seal and a Buck 110FG - nice combo

heh heh sounds like fun to me , maverick. openly carrying a fixed blade in public gets you in trouble , but concealing it gets you in even more trouble .
i have the spyderco moran fb01 , beautiful knife.

In KY, I can carry any type of knife with my CCDW liscense, and I generally carry a folder and a fixed blade every day. Usually carry a Microtech Mini SOCOM Elite auto or an SOG Pentagon Elite for the folder and a CRKT Hissatsu or an SOG Pentagon for the fixed blade. I also have an SOG Mini Tsunami that I used to carry quite a bit.

I have a Damascas steel 110 that I am partial to. Haven't seen it in a while. Maybe time to dig it out and take a look.

 

[SIRGALANT]

yeah i wanted a classic folder for my collection , so i went with the 110 .

 

[SIRGALANT]

damscus looks so cool , i always wonder though how they get the pattern in it?

Don Fogg wrote a nice intro article on just that.

"Getting the pattern in" is part of what makes damascus steel so addictive for some smiths.

Forgot to reply to the original question. The Pentagon is a favorite EDC choice and has been since the days they came with the high-quality leather boot-clip sheath. In fact, you just gave me an idea...

thanks for that vaako
