I carried this knife now for 24 hours. I fell asleep with it on my hip, only to wake up hours ladder with a page from the office. I wore it all day Friday, inside the waist band, lightly concealed under a loose long sleeve shirt. No one noticed the knife was even there, other than one of my co-workers who knows where to look, and what to expect form me!!!
I also used the knife, drawing it from the sheath, cutting boxes, slicing paper-boards, and ripping through packing material. The guys in receiving thought I was nuts to be using such a nice knife to cut into boxes!
For driving, the knife was extremely comfortable on my right hip. However, due to the size of the blade, I will only be carrying it under the most dire of circumstances!
I took the Micarta, soaked it with soap and water, and started slashing away at some large boxes, refrig. size. Grip slide around a little, but held its own.
Only thing is the rather rough finish on the blade..seems odd, but maybe a smaller blade, satinfinish, with Desert Wood handles would suit my need a bit better.
I am thinking of carrying it today into the city...we'll see...blade too big and I am not one for trouble wiht the law!
Tkae Care!
