For "mall-ninja missions" like opening the mail and getting into crannies when carving wooden bowls, the Bowie blade on my XM-18 has been quite handy.
It was also handy in the woods when I got a splinter...splinters ruin your relaxation, I find.
It also carries as easily as every other knife in that size range.
Why can't people like something different without making it an "us versus them" thing?
We all like knives here to an extent that makes the rest of the world think we're stupid.
They won't think any higher of you than me based on the type of ridiculously expensive knife you prefer.
I have in my collection normal edc knives and 'mall ninja style' knives too, for fun and because they're nice looking for me. If someone is looking for edc knife I'll recommend him my edc knife choices or something similar, not that more overbuild and crazy designs which I'm calling 'mall ninja knives'.
Personally I like Sebenza 21 design and XM-18 bowie too, but to be honest, XM-18 is too extravagant for edc choice at first place, it's more expensive gadget and toy for big boys than tool in comparison with Sebenza, but it's only my opinion, so peace.
