Well the mailman dropped off a Little Chill knife today 
Great transaction with "Saint Erica", very fast shipping.
When I see something that I understand, the design, materials, use, I buy it.
The Little Chill is one of those things.
I really like knives without inletted ricassos. When I was physically able to train with basic knives/blades "fighting" these just offered a snag point for myself on clothed dummies for comma cutting etc. The Little CHill does not have any Like my boker trance- or other Chad Los Banos designs, like the Sypderco Tenacious, etc.
Here it is with some other knives/blades tools- for size.
From left to right: irwin visegrips-6inch, cold steel trail hawk tomahawk bit, tim donovan custom, marttinni lumberjack full stick tang scandi, spyderco tenacious, modded cold steel desperado (serrations ground down on the tip past the stabbing angle), the SAK trekker, and the Little Chill.
And again with some other bladed instruments.
Left to right: Little Chill, modded cold steel Roach Belly, modded cold steel Kobun, modded CRKT hissatsu, modded cold steel Bushman, and a Kabar Heavy Bowie- 9inch.
As you can see, the Little Chill has a pretty wide blade. THis allows a lot of edge for the blade length, a lot of sweep, and a lot of slashing potential. It also sports a very very nice tip. The Litle Chill arrived sharp enough to take arm hair off.
This means the Little Chill has good options.
Here is the Little Chill with some basic little goodies for longer quickie weapon fabrication. Shown is a ibolt, nut, the famous SAK trekker that everyone should own, a cold steel escrima stick, and a pipe clamp.
Since the Little Chill has a nice full tang, fabrication was fast and easy. Tracking on slashes was pretty good, with the weight centered pretty well. No attempt to put ballast on the end was made by myself.
Well, there you have it folks, a brief look at the Little Chill.
