which one would be a better edc fixed blade? i want to be able to conceal it. please dont suggest any other knife, these are the only 2 im choosing from.
 
I have a HEST and feel no reason whatsoever to purchase the Izula-it's very compact and easy to EDC, and offers the benefit of a full handle. IMO buy right buy once...
 
They are two different animals, both great in EDC, both concealable. You cn't go wrong with either
 
What are you using it for? If your gonna concel it within a Jacket I would say Hest. Lighter cloths Izula. I like both
 
Izula. It is just the right size. I like to put mine in my pocket, or wear it around my neck.

I have the HEST as well, and it gets a lot less carry then the Izula.
 
I have both and they are both great blades. But it sounds like Izula would fit better to what you are look for.
And of course buy the HEST later.
 
I have both, but find the Izula easier to EDC. With the included plastic sheath, it fits in most of my jean pockets. If the jeans or pants have big enough pockets, I put it in a KSF Pocano sheath paired with another smaller knife (and will probably rotate it with an AAA led light when it arrives). It tends to not roll over in my pockets with that sheath. I get a bit self conscious about carrying anything larger than the Izula around non knife people. It's my first fixed blade EDC.
 
Neck, pocket, belt carry, or other?

I love neck carry and my Izula is perfect for that. light clothes, t-shirt, doesn't matter. It's thin profile doesn't "print" no matter what you're wearing.

I vote Izula.
 
IMO there is no "best". Depends on it's use. Pure look the Hest is alot nice. The blade is sweet. But for edc concealed the Izula is better JMO
 
I've only had my izula for a week and its replaced every other knife i usually edc. I say go with the Izula.
