Anyone carry a smaller blade now?

I think maybe its just the fact that I have big hands (I'm over 6'6" tall) and the idea of a blade smaller than that is so uncomfortable to me that I just think that everybody should feel the same way. Stupid really. But also, I don't want to be put in the situation where I REALLY need my knife (for whatever reason), and that was the day that I decided to carry a dinky little Cricket or something.
 
I went from carrying a ZT200 and CRK LG 21 Sebenza to a Cold Steel Med. Voyager and Spyderco Cat so I guess you could say that my taste in size has changed a great deal with that being said I still EDC my larger folders like my ZT200 and CRK Lg 21 Sebenza but not near as often.
 
Most of the time from day hikes, to a week in the wilderness I don't carry much more than a folding saw, Leatherman Wave, a small fixed, and a medium folder. Currently a BM Activator-1 and a Para 2 are serving my needs quite nicely
 
Just getting into decent blades, have some big and some small...got to say, on a daily basis I enjoy the smaller ones, especially fixed...BK 14 and condor mini bushlore recently....chopping is some dang fun, but a little unrealistic, and a bit tiring if you are concerned about saving you energy for "survival."
 
I like to carry small and lightweight blades, especially in the hot Arizona summers.
