Did you put those scales on yourself? John
Gary when you get on to your next blade and decide to let this go let me know.
It’s a Slim Praetorian, so very lightweight and carry-able, and as far as I can tell, the same thickness as the Small Sebenza (both ~0.375in) with roughly the same width/height (not thickness) of hollow ground cutting edge at ~0.625in. They’re both very slicey, however the Praetorian seems to have a very slightly wider/taller bevel and cuts more easily. Both are factory edges. I’d say it’s very similar to the CRK and while it’s certainly larger and weighs more, I’d say that difference is negligible and consider it well under the limit of what would be considered good for EDC. It has great balance, hand feel, is comfortable in multiple grips, and—personal point of desirability—it’s flickable!How do you like the Medford as an EDC? Is it like carrying a brick in your pocket that can't slice, or similar to the CRK?
Fingers crossed that it stays for a whileGary when you get on to your next blade and decide to let this go let me know.![]()
