Small Edc/Camp/Neck Fixed Blade

I really like the BK14 myself. I also have a Condor Mini-Bushlore and I like it but I'm not crazy about the sheath. It's good quality but for a knife that small I want a neck sheath or one with a pocket clip.

I also have a CRKT Ringed Razel, the chisel tip might limit it a little for normal bushcraft but it also gives it other capabilities that the others don't have. I used to EDC one so for the heck of it I played around a little to see how it would work if I was in the woods and it was the only knife I had. It fared pretty well. The hollow grind gives a good edge geometry for carving and the full-tang construction means it will be durable.
 
I've narrowed it down to the bk11 and the Izula. Which one has a better sheath? I like the sheaths tight.
 
Izula sheath is better. The BK sheaths have had more than their share of issues. Lots of aftermarket options for both though.
 
Ive currently had the biker rhino for about 6 months now and cant more highly reccommend it. The finnish on mine waa flawless (mines the stag variant ). The steel can get a razor edge and seems to keep it pretty well. I found that the size was perfect for an edc fixed blade, i think its a good option if you want something that is stainless
 
Just found a Izula in orange and I'm going to buy it, thanks for the adivice!

Woot! Good choice. The becker might have a longer blade but I've always thought the blade geometry of the izzy was far better. At least for my needs. Hope you like it.
 
BK11 (or BK14 - whichever handle you like better) is a super choice. I have both and love both - though I carry and use my BK11 more...

Ah - I see you went w/ an Izula. Those are nice too - smaller blade but whatever - the geometry on the Izula is nice and those guys are good to work with.
