EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Thank you for kind words my friend! I’ve always admired your WC 25, what a beautiful knife. I like it more then the Star-tac which I’ve owned a few.
As for this inkosi, I really lucked out! I like to go thru the exchange to keep track of the market before everyone deletes the selling price and there she was! I owned one in the spring and let it go and regretted it badly.

Be Well,
Clay
Right back atcha, Clay--thanks for the admiration of my WC25. I feel the same way about the Starbenza 25 versus the StarTac as you do.

I've had that WC 'Zaan for some time now, and while I like it and consider it a keeper, I've always had a hard time disengaging the lockbar. With my thick hands, arthritic fingers, and all the damage a lifetime in the building trades will wreak on one's mitts, I've adapted my unlocking grip for all liner- and frame-locks and slip my pinkie to the show side of the knife for a more solid grip, better leverage, and to set my thumb at more of a right angle to the lockbar. Even at that, I spend a little time practicing when I pocket the 'Zaan for the day as the lockbar access and shape is not the best for me.

Hopefully I'll get lucky like you did and see a StarKosi or KA CF version within 36 minutes of it listing like you did and be able to pounce. I gotta stay on my toes coz I know Coleman's on the hunt for the former too.

PS, re my earlier post: Noting that yours is a KA InkoSingo actually requires two green-eyed emoji's from YT.
 
It's Saturday and I have a Sheepdog in my pocket, mini that is.

Visited some of my favorite water spots. Some fresh mountain springs and creeks.

Unfortunately, no edible mushrooms to be found today. But I did find the largest Jack O Lantern mushrooms I have ever seen. These glow in the dark.

Beautiful weather. Great Saturday.

You have a lot of nice knives, but that little Northwoods fixed blade might be my favorite.
 
Serious skills! Hahaha

Also I love the little fixed blade people keep posting. I have never carried one but that looks like a good one to pocket carry.
 
Spyderco, switch blade Saturday? Because alliteration is EVERYTHING!

Got to try out the UTX-85 thanks to Kettleman Kettleman . It was crazy generous of him to lend it to a stranger. OTFs are fun but I just don't think it's for me.

On the other hand the little Delica has kicked out knives 5 times the cost from my pocket. Not sure why but I've been thoroughly enjoying it for the last 2 weeks.
