Swaybacks

[Skar]

I really enjoy the appearance of swaybacks.
Show em if you got em.
I don’t have many (1) kinda wanting some more in my possession.

I own a slysz swayback and like the knife. It is razor sharp and the design is both functional and aesthetically appealing. My only gripe is that the design puts the very tip of the blade very near the top of the scales so that if you put just a little pressure at this point egetting it out of your pocket, you will cut your finger. At least I have, which makes me wary of using it as a EDC. Wonder if others have experienced this issue.

A sway back is a design that lends itself to a hawksbill blade because of what you describe. moonpath maybe you can adjust your kick to drop the point deeper into the well

I haven't been poked. I'm usually pinching mine thumb and forefinger right about where the lockbar cutout is and I have it right to the very back of my pocket.

If I put my finger right to the tip of the blade I can push it into the scales and feel a touch but I've never been pocked. The Shaman does the same but again never been poked.

Invented a new word today "Pocked" def: Pocket Poked.

You can't really do that since the kick is just floating around in the air. You can just see it poking out pretty well straight down below the pivot.
