Hello all. Two months ago i began to practice a fairly new sport called Parkour (or Freerunning). Heres a quick explanation from AmericanParkour.com...
Parkour is the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one's path by adapting one's movements to the environment.
Parkour requires... consistent, disciplined training with an emphasis on functional strength, physical conditioning, balance, creativity, fluidity, control, precision, spatial awareness, and looking beyond the traditional use of objects.
Parkour movements typically include... running, jumping, vaulting, climbing, balancing, and quadrupedal movement. Movements from other physical disciplines are often incorporated, but acrobatics or tricking alone do not constitute parkour.
Parkour training focuses on... safety, longevity, personal responsibility, and self-improvement. It discourages reckless behavior, showing off, and dangerous stunts.
Parkour practitioners value... community, humility, positive collaboration, sharing of knowledge, and the importance of play in human life, while demonstrating respect for all people, places, and spaces.
If your still reading, im looking for a knife with these specs.
Thanks for the help and reading about Parkour in itself.

If your still reading, im looking for a knife with these specs.
- Up to 3 or so inch blade.
- Very thin and wont hinder movement while running, jumping, climbing, flipping, ect.
- Can be worn while wearing sweats without a fear of losing it. (easily secured)
- Wont open in pocket or if dropped.
- Very people friendly (LEOs and such are constantly wondering what im doing)
- Somewhere around $50?
