What blade did you EDC today?

Nice. I’ve mostly used those wheels for removing coatings. If you are careful, you can get a satiny finish with them too. I’ve also tried them in ergonomic softening applications, but I tend to stick with dremel-to-paper for that.

BTW, I hate coated blades most of the time but I have a few I like. Some of my favorites are a “black wash” or worn coating. I’ll try to remember to grab an example in the near future.

An earlier version of the Trivisa Lynx in 14C28N.

That one looks very pointy.

It is! This knife is notable in scratching my Leek itch. I carried a Leek for years back when I actually carried the same knife every day. Of course, this Trivisa Lynx has good manual action instead of janky assisted action with a manual safety, and the handle is more comfortable too. Aside from the pointy blade, they have 14C28N in common and the high toughness is a help.

Kubey Hyde on deck. This is a nice top flipper, soft of like the Civivi Appalachian Drifter 2 in execution (but otherwise very different).

I don’t have a lot of black blades but this Kizer Z-82 is a decent example of the “black wash” I like. Kizer does a nice job with that in general.

Black Blade

Is there such a model called a Z-28? If not Amazon has it listed wrong… Kizer Z-28 Hawaiian Pocket Knife with Clip, Black G10 Handle Folding Knife with N690 Blade for Outdoor, Camping, EDC -V4568N1 Amazon.com

Pocket heavy day! Today is my birthday and I decided to carry my first matching set. Luckily I’m in the office and sitting most of the day :rofl::rofl:

You must polish the light somehow? Mine has developed a dull natural patina.

I don’t and I wish it would develop a patina. It just keeps turning more gray. I’ve considered sanding it down and starting over. It wouldn’t need much sanding.
