Here are my EDC's the folder I made over 25 years ago and has been in my pocket ever since.It has gutted many deer and fish.It is used in the shop to open packages cut sandpaper,cut rope and anything else that needs to be done.The stag handled fixed blade I made last year for Deer hunting and it just goes on my belt next to the non cutter every day.

Here's a slightly old pic of my pull pile: (The CB DDC and DDR EDC are gone now and I'm not sure how the speed bump made it into that pic. Additions are Snody Damascus Hybrid/Resistor, JYDIIs, Spyderco Manix, Kershaw Offset and ZT 301. (and some Busse FBs))

Lot of great knives so far. I really like some of the smaller fixed blades.

For folders the large Dozier is my primary choice, though it is getting competition from the Obenauf Model 3. If I need something dressy rather than tactical I go for the Kelly Carlson Hawk. If I go with a neck knife instead of a folder it's usually either of the two Todd Begg models shown, Tree Frog and Meso.

jujigatame you have a nice set up there. How do you like the doizer?

 

[JB in SC]

Those Lovett City Knives are difficult to beat

 

[jujigatame]

jujigatame you have a nice set up there. How do you like the doizer?

Thanks. I love the Dozier. Stout but not that heavy, very smooth action, solid lockup, great finish, the whole nine yards. Really, it's got everything I want in a tactical style folder.

did you make those knives there beauties

Yes sir, they are the Stiff Horn and All integral Stiff Horn. I got the patterns from RW Loveless when on a visit out there a couple of years ago. In fact, I'm making bob and His partner Jim Merritt a set for our trip out there in Feb. after the Pasadena show. The All integral is a very modern rendition if the Stiff Horn that has been one of my favorites for years. I wanted to do something to make it my own. They have been extremely popular. There are two more models. One we (Me myself and I), are already producing, the all Integral city Knife. There is to be one more addition to complete the set. The All Integral New York Special. I'm just not quite happy with the NY Integral quite yet.

Her is a pic of the City Knife version. And a big Thanks JB!!! Mike and Manuela (the Sheath maker) Lovett

 

[Michael Lovett]

This is the new All Integral Little City Knife. I need to make myself one of these as they completely hide them selves in the back pocket even better than the slightly larger Stiff Horn.

JW Smith "Evolution" folder.

Michael Lovett how much do you ask for one of those im interested

 

[CL01]

Heres mine, a custom EDC Idesigned, and Justin Gingrich made for me.:thumbup:

What are the dimensions of that knife? It looks like it could be the size of a Little Bird, or slightly larger & what's the steel used?

Very nice knife, BTW.

 

[slw]

I like to know too. That's a really nice simple elegant knife. I like it!
