I've been using a Fallkniven Kolt for one of my EDC knives, and it is rapidly becoming my favorite EDC. The handle initially felt a little short, but I'm finding that this actually gives me more grip options than a longer handle does. The sheath is definitely lacking, but with a decent custom kydex sheath it would be a fantastic neck knife. I haven't gotten around to sending the knife to a sheathmaker because I don't want to be without the thing for that long. The longer I carry it the better I like it. I have large hands, and it still works very well for me.
I carry the knife in the factory sheath either in my pants pocket, or in the chest pocket of my shirt (heavy canvas-duck cloth shirts with deep chest pockets). It's easier to clean than a folder, and it is a pretty streamlined little thing so it feels like a smaller package than may of the folders I carry. It's not really much thicker than some of my folders, and it is narrower than most of the folders I own.
I also occasionally carry an Fallkniven F1 in a broad kydex sheath in my back pocket. The width of the sheath makes the whole package very secure and the F1 puts all of my folders to shame in terms of heavy-use tasks. I find it is fairly good at food prep, too, as long as the items I'm slicing up are not larger in diameter than the blade length. My wife likes a 2-1/2" paring knife for everything, but I prefer an 8" blade for most long-duration kitchen work.
Anyway, the Fallkniven KK (Kolt Knife) can be had for less than $150, and the blade design is beautiful. I can't recommend it highly enough.
