EDC fixed blade recommendation

[22-rimfire]

Bob Dozier Personal would be my choice. His horizontal shealths make knives pretty much un-noticed and they are very fast and secure.

Dpx has some solid choices. I also love the fallkniven sk 1 and 3. Beauties.

This looks pretty nice, and the price is right. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1235844-CHILDRESS**EDC**D2-Stabilized-Olivewood**

This one meets all of your criteria. Especially the thin edges Big Chris is known for.

Do you prefer the D2 steel on the BK 24 over the 1095 Bk14? It's about a 20$ difference in cost but I think it is worth it.

What knife is that? It almost looks like a Spyderco Temperance.

Very generally, I believe that the D2 offers better corrosion resistence but will be harder to sharpen and not quite as tough as the 1095cv. D2 may pull ahead i edge retention somewhat, but I don't know how much difference you would really see in use between the two.

As much as I love all of the custom knives, they don't fit into my budget. I think I have narrowed it down to either the BK24 or Rat 3. And no, I am not going to buy both of them LOL

Something by L.T. Wright?





Worth a look if you like that style...
