Been looking at the Izula and RC3 as potential EDC fixed blades. Curious to hear some feedback about each before I purchase one. Who EDC's one and what's your carry setup?

Also if anyone happens to own a Swick and wants to take a comparison photo of the Swick and Izula I'd appreciate it.
 
I EDC my RC4. I carry it horizontal accross the back with the molle clips. Works great.

Fantastic knife. The foks at RAT cutlery rewally knocked it out of the park when they designed the RC4.
 
The Izula is in my EDC rotation; I think it's probably the best all-around small fixed blade out there. I just carry it with a kydex sheath and keep it in my pocket. Haven't owned a RC3.

Ive carried my ratpack rc-3 in a scout style, I have since went back to my brkt tell i swap out the orange g10 for my new textured black g10 handles. The orange brought way to much attention to my knife.
Its comfy and I trust that blade.
 
I EDC my Izula and carry it in it's sheath either in my front or back pocket.
 
I carry my Izula everyday at work. Around my neck most of the time but in my pocket when It's not.

When I get home my RC-3 or RC-4 goes on my belt with a tec-loc.
 
edc my rc-3 either horizontal carry/tek lok, ksf hunters pocket sheath, or merc harness.
 
I'm EDCing my RAT Pack RC-3 everyday. Before that, I EDCed my RC-4. I carry it inverted, edge pointed back, on my right side. It's a position I'm extremely used to and drawing and re-sheathing the knife is a very natural motion. It took a little getting used to in the beginning, but after I got used to it, I can't carry a RC-3 or a RC-4 any other way. I carry my RAT everywhere I go, all day, everyday. Work, the store, to the toilet. If I'm dressed, My RAT is with me. So is my side arm.
 
I work outside in the woods mostly so I EDC my RC3 on my right hip in one of the KSF leather sheaths. Works great for me. I also sometimes carry my Izula horizontal on my belt just to the left of my belt buckle attached by paracord handle towards the right.
 
I EDC the Izula with the setup it came with as it is legal carry in most of the United States. I carry it next to RAT E&E Kit on my left side attached to my belt.
Got them both from www.knivesshipfree.com.
VERY happy with them BOTH, perfect mini-kit to carry.
 
I EDC an izula in my pocket, love it, and never an issue. Working on moving up to an RC3, probably iwb somehow.
 
Izula goes around the neck inverted. When I'm in the bush or hunting I carry my RC-3 baldric style under my left arm.
