What blade did you EDC today?

Kershaw Cannonball 2061!

I received this knife yesterday.

It's pretty good, but it's not one of my very favorites.

It has a short clip on it that I thought I wouldn't like, but it's fine.

It kinda reminds me of my Cryo II BlackWash, but with better steel.

This compact Tunafire flipper lately:

Fake Kershaw Launch 10 arrived. Nice little knife. Generally I don’t like fakes, but tried to buy an original and that’s a little complicated with auto knives for non US buyers. I’ll keep trying.

I buy all the sub 2” blade autos from ali because I can carry them in Cali. And there are some bitchen ones too! I have that 10 so snappy.

Modded neck knife.

!!

I think that’s spaghetti sauce; could be paint though.

Nicely done! I was just about to quote your post before, pics or it didn’t happen sort of thing and there it is.

Today, my usual really, the UKPK in blood popsicle red G10. I’ll add a pic in a min.

Like how you made you own scales. Have you ever done a post on how you do it on any forum?
That Medford love it.

Carrying an Enzo necker today.

I’m very pleased with the result myself, I just wish the Titanium liners were not flat but with a recess for the scales like on the Mnandi (and other knives).

That would add a lot of stability (and manufacturing cost), the way it is the knife feels a bit flimsy to me.

Have you tried the Slack? Quite a few of the Bokers, like the Kwaiken and Trapper are quite long and thin gentleman’s pocket knives. The Slack is similar in design but fairly solid. Laser cutting the liners would be easy for Boker, but CNC work to shape the scales is an expensive way to make a budget knife more solid. Most manufacturers would just fit thicker liners.

Your knife blog is interesting.
How do you know those blades are D2 steel ?
Do you test them ?

I’ve seen the Slack, no clip, not for me.
Still I do like the Urban Trapper, it’s a wonderful knife by all means, with these thin liners maybe steel (skelletonized) would have been the better choice though.

Kershaw Terran 2080!

This knife is a lot smaller than most of my knives, but I do like it.

It's kinda like a gentleman's folder.

It's lightweight and pretty slim.

It has a 3.125" blade and seems like a toy compared to my larger knives.

I think it looks really good, though, and it's a nice change of pace.

Here is my WFH carry today. Glamor shot previously taken. :blush:

Gerber EZout JR partially serrated for about 25 years. I’ve made the opening hole at least twice as deep as it was originally and just a little bit longer for easier drop openings. I use it for most everything everyday. I’ve lost and found it a few times for days or more at a time but I have a spare one for those times. It’s a very soft steel that needs constant touch-ups but that’s all right. I’ve always carried a second larger knife also. For the last 10 years it’s been a partially serrated Tenacious. I have dabbled with other smaller knives looking to replace the Gerber but that meant carrying three knives and I almost never used the other ones. I’ve been waiting since November for the s35vn PS tenacious.

I had this Kershaw 1630 for 10+ years now.

Cold Steel AD-15, OD green scales dyed navy blue.

Yup, my first Kershaw was the smaller 1635.

I got it in 2008.

Hey cool blade! :-) Ever open it up to clean/look around? I took mine apart the other day to clean and lube. Was stuck at one point putting it back but eventually I got it all back together.

I actually have another Kershaw carabiner which I currently use with my keys. Quite handy as I always have it with me.
