EDC Comparison Pic

[Guyon]

My pics stink without natural light, but I thought this was an interesting comparison.

 

[bleev3]

Ohhh, nice! What is the name of the bottom knife? Do you just buy them from busse?

:thumbup:

Yup, my rotation of late has been a WHC, or my Meaner or my HD. Great sized blades !

no solo pic of the Culti.

Jimmy, did you have that Mean Street satinized by someone?

No, got it off the exchange that way, here's the link. It's a great 'Gentleman's knife' and a real beast.

bleev3, those are older models. You'd have to look on the Exchange or fleaBay for something like them.

The bottom knife is an Active Duty.

Cool comparison shot... For some reason I was thinking the meaner was a bit larger... It looks like a great EDC.

I wonder if anyone has grinded the butt off of one of those to make it an even more compact package.

Always like seeing the comparison shots, thanks. Gives me some idea of how big a certain Knife is. :thumbup:

Great edc's. Mean streets are great blades.

What do think about the Game Wardens? I recently picked up my first one, and I thought it was almost an Assault Shaker with handle slabs.

I'm surprised I haven't hear these two compared more often.

 

[LMT66]

Matteo, these might help.
Of these three, I grab the Cultellus most.

 

[Lycosa]

Nice!!
No PD's??

Hey Guyon, did you mod the choil on your HRLM?

 

[Guyon]

I did, and I'm going to make it a little bit bigger still.

As it was, the choil was too small to use it for choking up on the blade. I used a grinding wheel on my Dremel and just slowly worked it up into the choil until it hit bottom. Made for a nice, even, circular choil.

I want to find a wheel that is just slightly bigger and do the same thing. It works now, but it will be more comfortable if I enlarge it by another 1/16" or so.

Real EDC knives fold!!!! LOL!!!

 

[Guyon]

Yeah, but none of your folders are Busses.

 

[trestle]

I did, and I'm going to make it a little bit bigger still.

It looks more useful now and has a nice curve:thumbup:

I modded mine with the cone-shaped grinding attachment for the dremel but it would have turned out better with a cylinder-shaped attachment.

 

[randucci]

Yeah, but none of your folders are Busses.

This one is, its just not finished yet. I figure if I make a ugly one from a Busse blade and say "look at my Busse folder!" Jerry will be wanting to give me one of his or make him finally produce some production ones to replace mine!
