i cant decide on either the horseman or mini cqc-15... and there arent any dealers around me to get a hands on experience of them.

which do you prefer?
which has a more comfortable grip? i have medium sized hands btw.

anybody with both thats willing to chime in would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

I've had both and I liked the Mini 15 a bit better. Grip was just a bit better for me and my hand really locked right in to it. I also really, really like the TantCom grind. Really though, you can't go wrong with either knife.
 
I've had my eye on the cqc15, either model. That's what I'd go with. Sadly, I can't seem to find one other then eBay. Apparently these things are pretty hard to acquire.
 
will be used in my EDC rotattion :D

i like both blade shapes, the tanto recurve seems like itll work great.

i think it really comes down to ergos. which both seems very good too LoL.

im really wondering how the 15 will feel like since it has sort of a pinky choil going on.

the commander looks like itll cut really well, but it just doesnt appeal to me for some reason.
 
I'd say that if you've got a bunch of knives that are similar in blade shape,try out a different shape.

The 15 is basically a 7 with a recurve on the main blade. The horseman, has lots and lots of belly, which lends itself well to draw cuts. The reverse choil on the 15 comes in handy when you're extracting your knife from something you've just stabbed into. Because your intended use is EDC rotation, I'd say go with the horseman. The 15 is a great knife, with features that make it optimized for certain types of use.
