EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?


I was craving some titanium this week so I've been carrying my Kizer T1 since Monday. This really is a fantastic knife in it's fit, finish and action.

Also after 7 years of daily use my Samsung gear s2 smart watch finally gave out. I wanted a more traditional watch and decided to go with an eco drive. Excited to see how many years of use I can get out of this one!

It sure doesn't look all that quiet. ;) (Couldn't resist.)

Great looking watch!

FWIW, I have several Eco Drive watches from the last century that are still running just fine with no change of battery/capacitor.

Be glad you got the mini the large is pushing the "edc" for me...and they are great knives.View attachment 1857506
Yea thats pretty large. Much too large for me to carry comfortably. I love this little knife. Bought it from a fellow member here on the forum. Oddly enough the bronze hardware had started turning purple like it was heated up. So i polished and re bronzed it. All is well again

Excellent choice none the less.

What model Kizer is that? How are you liking their version of a button lock?

Almost forgot to post today! Been carrying this frag penguin in 154cm. Not sure why they went with bearings when the budget version was already good on PB washers but i suppose the action is nicer. The main draw was the Ti frag pattern which is well done, no pocket shreddin at all.
It's Hic-Cup, very nice action but Cormorant has better.
 
Is that the Parrot model?

No but I had one of the original 440C versions of the Parrot. I liked the style. It flicked out nicely and the blade shape was good. It had a couple of issues too but for $20, it was hard to complain.

That one is the Osprey in 14C28N. At a little over $50, issues get a lot harder to excuse. This one has scale play and some rough marring along the bearing path that you can feel in the action. That might be incidental but other things stand out. For instance, the liners are not skeletonized. It's a small thing but it's something that has become the norm in modern Chinese folders at this price level. Overall, it's a noticeable step down from what's available for the same money from Kizer, Bestech, or either of WE's budget brands.

Speaking of, this Petrified Fish Scout in 14C28N has fewer issues for a few dollars less...
