Thank you. I hope this is the one that stays. It makes no sense at all for me to keep buying them ( I think this is my 4th?) because they are longer then legal limit to carry here, but the damn ‘Zaan just wont stop walking thru my mind. I always knew I would try again but I thought I would wait for a OP…

I have a solution: Move to a different Place!
The part that really scares me is if I actually keep and carry this one I will have broken the + 3.5 inch barrier and I don’t even want to guess what’s that’s going to cost me!!!!Stuff just happens.

Knives need to cut stuff and be carried...
I agree but he is concerned about carrying it and breaking the 3.5" rule. If it is framed like it is a museum artifact then he doesn't break his 3.5" rule!

Nobody can see what's in a pocket...
Discretion covers a lot of bent rules.

I completely agree. I’m to the point of just saying F it. Makes no damn sense that I can get arrested for carrying a concealed weapon ( knife) while I have a completely legal G19 stuffed in my pants!
As for the 3.5 barrier I mentioned I was referring to not allowing myself to cross that line. If I do, there is an entire world of knives Ive never let myself even think about! This will get expensive fast!
Gr
Have it grinded down .19 inches
It is easier to just give in and start an extensive collection of knives with blades greater than 3.5 inches.
I was afraid you were going to say that.

Well, the damascus thread got the better of me and I ordered one of these yesterday. It is expected to arrive on Thursday. It’s my first damascus blade and I’m pretty stoked.

Not so much “inbound” anymore but I finally found a left handed insingo and it was delivered yesterday evening. This blade shape has always intrigued me and I’m excited to use it.
I am just trying to be helpful. If you are concerned about developing a large collection of knives with 3.5" blades then limit them to strictly custom knives or knives with Damascus blades. Of course you could limit yourself to just custom knives with Damascus blades.
See this is what I was afraid would happen if I bypassed my 3.5 rule…..View attachment 1774376

One of my favorites, if not number one
I have always enjoyed watching you put the Inkosi to work and once I decided over 3.5 was what I was doing, I knew it would only be a matter of time before I gave one a shot. I wasnt sure about the insingo blade on a working knife as I had several small sebenzas with them and wasn't ever all in. I am hoping the added length and Inkosi thickness will seal the deal.

I’m a big fan of that shape. Good mix between a utility blade shape and drop point
