I just recently purchased a Matriarch 2 with the wave feature. I like it, but I would also like a civilian to alternate with it. Although these will be EDC knives, I'm going to carry an old Delica I have as a use knife. Can anyone post a pic of the Matriarch in front of the Civilian to show total size difference.
I used to carry a ZT 0560 but it just isn't doing it for me. I was thinking of putting the Matriarch in the front right pocket for easy deployment and the Delica in the left pocket. I'd like to hear input from Civilian owners and what they carry for a work knife.

French guy shows a brown Matriarch with a Civilian. Civilian is not that popular. The Matriarch is close in size but less than half the price.
 
If you can ignore the flare, here's a shot of both that should give you a good idea of their relative sizes...

Thank you. That is awesome. Definitely a big difference. I'm curious if anyone has gotten a Civilian and then stepped down to a Matriarch? I purchased the Matriarch primarily for the wave feature, but I'm still wanting the Civilian
 
I have a civilian but have never carried it. I got it used but in great shape on Kijiji. I guess I'm just afraid that if I need to use a knife and opened it in public it would give someone a heart attack.:p It is one wicked looking knife and I love it.
 
Found a dealer while I was on vacation, but no Civillian. I think I may just order one. I did pick a SE ENDURA 4 and a nice Sage 3. I'm really liking both. May carry the Sage with the Matriarch 2 as a work blade. Love that lock mechanism
