And last but not least, my latest acquisition, a Reese Weiland Slash Sword, with a Rob Oldaker Gladius for scale. 6 inch blade, 13.5 inch OAL.

That's awesome! I remember seeing that knife before, it got me interested in extremely large folders. I'm still trying to find one of your knives.

The bad monkey knife is such an awesome 4 inch blade that even Rick EDC it

Not a monster, this one, but long, slender, and classy with a full 4" blade--the Al Mar Eagle in cocobolo. Perhaps a gentleman's shiv.

The rain seems to be following me wherever I go lately, so no decent fresh pics for a while. Here's another long-lean one from my pic files--this a 710-1401 in M390.

I had one of these for a short time. Really nice knife and I really enjoyed it. But without a pocket clip I had to let it go.

IMO, the knife is just a tad too big for pocket carry. So, when I carry it, it is in its nylon holster on my belt. Although I do understand if one wants a clip added to it, it can be done. But I would send it to an expert as you'd have to drill down through titanium.

My grail knife. I need to gather courage and money to get one.

I like mine quite a bit, though I don't have that much occasion to carry it as I'm usually in situations where a modern, user folder is more appropriate as a primary carry and a smaller or beater folder is my second. As big as the Eagle is, though, it hides very nicely in its slip vertically in my pocket next to my wallet and is a great choice for a discrete carry.

I really like the Talon blade with the thumbstuds and have long sought a Falcon Talon which is the next size down. They don't show up on the secondary market much and when they do they come at silly prices. They've been discontinued for a while, but I've kept looking and got lucky a couple days ago when one showed up new at KnivesPlus. It's the one with black Micarta grips and is in the mail to me as I write.

Almost like clipping a 1911 and holster on your waistband/belt.

Here's my big boy Hinderer XM24 with its REK regrind from sharpened prybar Spanto to shallow hollow with Josh's awesome edge. Combo pocket sword and light saber.

Does this qualify?
