What blade did you EDC today?

Damascus IS only for show. Performance will always be worst.

Civivi is a WE sub brand, and the Damascus is of fully unknown content, so it has been dubbed Wemascus. Yeah, it’s pretty, and will get minor use.

Guys, I know there are many knives fans among you. I’m totally green so just a humble request to recommend me a knife for my father (67yo).

In two months a father’s day will come so it’s the last call to get something from China. Due to virus the delivery time has significantly increased.

Long story short: I need a good reliable folding knife for around $25. Nothing fancy, just solid, reliable knife. The simpler the better. I want this gift to serve him for long. Neither my father nor myself are familiar with brands, so it doesn’t matter.

What would you recommend? Or maybe any good deals have been spotted around? Please share.

Thanks in advance and keep yourselves in good health.

Dunno if they’re still available, but that go,comma knife making the rounds here is hella nice.

The question I’d ask is, are there any legal restiction for carry in your area and does he like/know how to use a knife with one-hand opening?

If locking knives are not ok I’d recommend the Sanrenmu 9165

If one hand opening and a locking blade is ok I’d recommend the Sanrenmu 810 series or one of the 910 series

I really like my Kershaw folders. And you can find them on Amazon in that price range, which means less shipping uncertainty and shorter wait. Check out these Kershaws:
Volt II
Oso Sweet
Duck Commander

Currently overnight solo camping in the mountains (with cell service, lol), so here’s my EDC.

Thats a nice looking FB droppoint :+1:

Kershaw Mixtape for me:

Too bad i can not buy such knives where ever, cuz you see they are illegal here so getting nicked in customs would mean a 500 +USD fine and it you have any weapon’s permits for anything they would get invoked from this horrible breach of the Danish weapons law.

I will have to buy from a EU country where parcels dont undergo the same control, i have gotten a few from Germany for instance.

You cant have any form of 1 hand opening, and no locking blade either, and the blade have to be pretty short, sub 75 mm i think it is.

My country was sick way before Corona.

You can if you are the member of the Royal Court. Aren’t you? :wink:

I am always going fishing ( gear in the back of my car ) this way i can carry a fixed blade that would make crocodile Dundee approve :smiley:
If they wonder why i carry it under the arm like a gun, well its just to not scare people and i fish wearing waders so on the hip dont work, i would prefer to be able to open carry, but that would be frowned upon with a Bowie that large.

Real Steel H6 Special Edition II 7781. My orange crush. LOL

I haven’t been able to set it down the past couple of days. The well placed, and well designed thumb studs make it a fun fidget tool.

I cleaned out the insides, and applied mineral oil to the pivot washers and it really improved the action, a lot. It’s also a slicing machine with the beautiful shaped blade that comes super sharp.

… QSP Carbon Hawk …

Here’s my office carry for the day.

Sorry to hear that. Denmark/Sweden area is so beautiful—been there a few times. Safety factor seems high. Is that due to the very strict weapons control? I have to believe that smallish 2”~3” blade knives wouldn’t have any impact, so it’s tragic they are so strict about import of those.

That’s a handsome looking knife. How do you like that top mounted stud?

Used my SOG Vulcan Tanto yesterday & today. I baby it a lot because I’ve got a SOG X-Ray Vision that I use for rough jobs, as I don’t care if it gets scratched. So the Vulcan’s blade is still pristine. Cut some ginger for brewing herbal tea today. Like cutting through butter, super thin slices. Just love this well underrated knife. Mine is an early release where the logo is more subdued. THIS knife keeps me from amassing more knives of this size, because it’s so terrific in many respects.

The only armed people here are:
The armed forces. ( a barrack was robbed of several automatic weapons a while back )
Police. there will be fire and brimstone if they let one fly, criminals know this and taunt them.
Criminals. after the Bikers chilled down ( did let off RPG in their fight for power / drug market ) immigrant gangs have taken over, almost with daily shootings or stabbings.
It also seem that if you have a beef with someone, light up a couple sticks of dynamite on his doorstep to get the message thru.
Then there are people like me practicing civil disobedience. ( most likely people like me are the biggest problem here if you ask some people )
And then there is the ordinary people for whom it is fine to call 911 as their weapon, there they will be on hold for a long while, and then the police might not have the manpower to respond when you finally get to talk to a cop.

We had / have a criminal law that say you can not use a knife on another person, and when people was not able to handle that we got a knife law, which are just stupid in my eyes.
Take the regular law and make it:
1 scratch in another person = 2 years prison
1 wound deep enough to need sewing = attempt of manslaughter = 8 years prison ( at least )
kill another person = get killed your self, and i would like that persons like that get killed in the same way, so stab someone 27 times with a toothpick knife, and you should get the same.
And only if the executioner was not able to do that, would you get a bullet, or rather after that you should get a bullet cuz after all we are not animals.

Personally i maintain the right to defend myself and my property in any way i see morally justifiable, and what ever they have done to Danes to make them ( nickname for cat plural ) dont work on me.

Sounds like your country could benefit from some 1800s-era Texas Rangers!
