These three are some of my best smaller knives in the collection. All US made, that matters to me. All three are just fantastic EDCs, light weight, some of the best construction and engineering out there, feel great in hand / pocket and each offers a different feel and usability.
We all know of the Rosie: feels great in the hand, great action, carries in the pocket like a dream, super slicey with that thin cutting profile and won’t terrify the folks in HR.
The Koenig has a unique feel in the hand, very smooth action, a clean and attractive hollow grind and I enjoy the optionality of the flipper tab and like the DLC feel of the handle.
The bottom knife is the Protean from Prince Customs: this one should be on your radar, really good action with a ridiculously early defent, the construction and engineering are on par with both the Rosie and the Arius, the blade offers a little more length at just over 3 inches, there is really cool milling on the blade, this does come at the cost of slicing effectinvess but the edge is razor sharp and the knife really fills out the hand more so than the Rosie. It has a ‘built like a tank’ feel and comes in weighing only 3.5 ounces. Lefty EDC did a much better review on this than I can offer.

Yesterday's loadout.
Knife aside, now you’re just gloating! How many cases of CCI do you have?? I thought I was doing OK with a case and half of a lot of Norma Match that both my Anchutz 1712 and Tikka T1x (and some assorted Eley Black Box) like for small bore bench rest! That just looks unfair.
Today is another Large and Small Sebenza day.
