Non Traditional Folders

Kershaw flippa in my right front for right now, and HOW, LOL. Canoe in right cargo, and SAK in left cargo. Manly Comrade and Boker Tech Tool 1 slippies are on my radar now, LOL.

While I have all sorts of knives, I mostly carry traditionals. I find the blade shapes more useful for cutting chores. Large one handers are fun, but I find a narrow thin blade to be more useful.

About how I feel. I did obtain a drop point russlock recently and have been carrying it for a few weeks.

I prefer traditional slip joints because they're sexy.

They are, aren't they? Women actually love a nice looking slipjoint. A modern... not so much.

Well, there it is.

I like all types of knives and have acquired many to choose from for EDC, this inexpensive Vic Farmer has to be the most useful knife I've ever owned. It is almost always in my pocket.

Traditional slip-joint for me. I've had all kinds of knives over the years, but the traditional is what I like best. I still have a couple of thumbflickers somewhere I think. Probably in a shoebox in the back of the closet or out in the shed, I don't know. I'm almost 54 years old and I can't say that I have ever needed anything more than a stockman or jack knife. I have a couple of Buck 110's, one a custom shop with Ram's horn but I rarely carry them. Sometimes when I'm hunting maybe. I just like the warmth of bone or stag scales and as I get older, I have a greater appreciation for older and more traditional way of doing things. I even quit carrying around a glockamatic semi-auto and started packing a 5 shot .38. Thankfully, we all have our choices and we should support each other in our hobby, cause we're in perilous times boys.

I have and enjoy both modern and traditional knives, but carry a traditional at least a month for every day I carry a modern OHO. I do keep a largish (5" closed) OHO in the center console of each of our cars, and I carry one always when afield, along with a good fixed blade and an SAK.

I love them all. Well, most knives but I need a pocket clip and prefer a chisel grind.
If I put a pocket clip on my Sodbuster, I think I'd be all set but I refuse to do that.

I seem to flip back and forth constantly. A real identity crisis. I honestly prefer to use non tradionals over traditional. More about ease of use with one handed opening and a solid lock. However, I just don't get the same satisfaction. Something always seems to draw me back to traditionals. Not sure what it is. Most days I just compromise and carry one of each.
