I have a little problem with my memory after an accident a little over a year ago now and everyone has been so patient with my orders and questions. Just wanted to say thank you to everyone there and wish you and yours a truly blessed holiday!

      I have no problem digging through a pile of rocks or mud with a $300 knife and then putting it back in my pocket dirty and never cleaning it. Lol

    I want my knife out in the open enough to get to it as quick and smooth as possible. Only knife I own with a 3" blade or shorter is a CRKT Minimalist. It's the Persian version with about a 3"blade neck knife that I wear outside my shirt. I purchased it 2 weeks ago and love it. That will be the only mini or little dinky knife I'll ever need. Usually I grab first my 6" blade Buck 119. It has completed every cutting job with ease.

  • @petercarney5928
    @petercarney5928 2 года назад +13

    I feel that deep carry pocket clips are useful if you don't want people around you to know you are carrying a knife, especially for certain functions or states. Other than that, non-deep carry are good to use because you can easily get a good purchase when getting the knife out of your pocket

    • @Rawdawg321
      @Rawdawg321 2 года назад

      I feel the same way. Another reason for deep carry makes it harder to lose your knife when it gets caught up on something.

    • @Horde334
      @Horde334 2 года назад

      Have a love hate feeling towards deep carry clips like you stated its good for low profile but i find the moment the material of the pocket is too thick getting it out of the pocket leads to snags (front right pocket in my case has a reinforced leather hemming and back pocket hemming is cordura so i find deep carry clips not ideal)

    Lately, the past couple years, I've left the clips on and used them. Prior to that, my EDC was always in a belt pouch, lanyard attached for ready availability! Recently, I'm @the point where I want nothing on my belt, OR in my pockets, preferring instead to use a messenger bag for all my day use impedimentia. Pocket clips STILL nearly universally cause me a "hot spot," but my blades don't get near the work they did in my younger days so that's not the worry it once was...

    Hmmmmmm all those blades are awesome!
    Here is my rating/ranting
    #[1] Spyderco Shaman M4 probably has the best steel, has a nice shape and looks like a durable functional design.
    #[2] Liong mah with the Elmax steel is super futuristic sci-fi looking and that is a high quality steel you can still sharpen.
    #[3] Marfione socom elite Would be the M390 blade because it's made with M390 the best all around knife steel.

    I loved the Dagger Knives Sting that you featured, but can't find it on your website. Help!
