EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I've been waiting on someone to get one of these so I can ask how it is.

So how do you like it?

I took a chance getting it because I don’t hear about them much, but it’s impressive. The blade is laser sharp out of the box, very thick at the spine and comes to a nice edge. Ergos are solid, pocket clip is amazing with just the right amount of tension. Blade reminds me of a sturdier version of a shiro neon. All in all, no complaints, only thing to mention is the liner lock is flush with the scales, and that’s a trade off: it’s more secure for hard use that way but accessing it is tougher than it is on knives where there is a recessed area of scales that exposes it. But it isn’t as bad as say the Spyderco Bradley II.

Edited to add: I foolishly overspent on mine. There are retailers offering versions of this in micarta $100 cheaper than I paid for mine.

I decided to swap out the Gen 2 VG10 SS Lockback Spyderco Police in my pocket for a Gen 6 Hinderer XM18-3.5 20CV Recurved Black G10 Flipper.

The Police was only in my pocket for a week but I just received the Hinderer and I couldn't wait any longer to try it out.

Too many knives and not enough time to carry them all. ;)

Thanks for the feedback. In honestly the blade thickness was the only thing keeping me from it. I may have to check it out one day.

You’d think the thickness might cause some issues but this thing moves through corrugated boxes like a hot knife through butter. Typically chonky blades get hung up more. It’s robust yet slicey.
