My current choices are between the Kershaw Blur Blackwash cpm S30V - Hikari D2 lockback straight razor style - Enzo cpm S30V friction folder (not a lockback)
Hmmm decisions decisions- now to weed it down too one. Anyone care to help?
My standard carries are spyderco pmII (amazing) benchmade/emerson design cqc7 (yes the 90s version and far better than any emerson
the spyderco byrd cara cara 2 (lovely light sexy) the fox karambit grey N 690C stainless (lovely bit) and my lovely Opinel #6-#8's the CRKT m16 (various models) the CRKT hammond cruiser / moraknivs /condors/ kabars/ and more...so the three choices I have are far different than normal.

Attach a lanyard to it and slip the lanyard under a belt. It keeps the knife in one spot and helps drastically.
I was definitely considering adding a small lanyard to it to reduce fumbling around in my pocket

If you wear jeans, or have pockets that sit almost parallel to the belt, it's gonna be a big difference.

Sorry about seeing your post late, yes you may carry others. I know I'll have my Matriarch or a fixed with me.

I edited my post on Page 1 with pics. I actually still haven't chosen 100%, but you will see why. I will post here, or wherever the active thread is if I end up getting choice #1 fixed up in time. Fixed blade for a whole month will be a worthy knife challenge for me.

Reserved. I have to see if I can get my fixed blade ready in time. I never carry fixed blades for more than a day or two. They just aren't part of my preferred carry style, but I have been meaning to try out a nicer fixed (almost bought a Bark River-twice), so this is a good challenge to see if I can really handle carrying a fixed blade long term. My two options are both vintage Imperial Bowie style blades with a guard and smaller handle. If I don't get the first one ready in time, I will fall back on one that is ready as-is.
Well, I may not be able to get this neglected $1 Imperial bowie knife ready for action in time for March 1st. Was going to mod to a hidden tang. Already reground all the pitting out, so hopefully I get motivated to get a handle on it in time.
So I will most likely be using this $10 Imperial Bowie knife to see if the first one is worth the effort. If I do get around to finishing the top one before the 1st, I reserve the right to swap since they are both vintage Imperial fixed blades of the same pattern. Hope that doesn't break any rules.
I think the One Knife Court will allow a swap.

Feeling kinda left out... Signed in on page 1, and while updates keep appearing on the sign in sheet, I keep getting left 
So... I'm in.
Buck Quickfire; should arrive today
-I very rarely carry 420hc anymore these days
-I never edc a locking folder with a blade less then 3".
+(Possibly) an H&K Dispatch as a fixed blade, (if that's OK), since I typically edc both a folder and fixed blade, and I don't own, let alone carry any Tanto blades, so both will be new and out of my comfort zone...
No hard feelings BTW, just bustin' your balls a bit...

Updated my original post in here with a picture. 
Why not the Enzo? Would be cool to see that friction folder take on the world!

That's the spirit! Prize wise, I'm thinking probably the same knife I'll be using will be sent to the winner, not the exact same one, but a brand spanking new one! Although, I have a few other ideas.
