You stab with your hands?

The right hand.

 

[Nosferatu]

The right hand.

Well, duh. You certainly don't want to use the wrong hand to stab with.

Half seriously, the CS Kobun knife is thin and sharp and there are clip sheaths.

I'd go to Tops Knives website find one, buy at your favorite knife shop, and then if needed get the Ulti Clip. They have all sorts of shapes and sizes.

@TTSX If you need an ulticlip I have their slim version you can have. If you ever find your way up North.

Weight?

Nvmd, just over a quarter pound. Not bad at all.

Mine is pretty light, 5-6 oz sounds reasonable.

Y'all got me messed up over here. On laundry day too. I wasted half an hour on this noise.

I'm looking for a small, light knife with a sheath that can be easily carried in basketball short pockets or clipped to the waistband. I do not want a cheap chinesium Walmart special. Made out of material such as D2 or 154CM, maybe 1095 for example. Fixed blade, please.

Can't carry my gun at the gym and I'm not about to throw dumbbells at heads



Recommendations? Experience with gym carry?

Just make sure that the sheath does not hang below the hem, or you'll be arrested for indecent exposure.

Spyderco Endura, a 4" blade. I've had one on me for probably 30 years.. swimming, whatever.

 

[EasEWryder]

Look up Joe Watson Knives.

I used to be a technician for 24HR Fitness....lotsa strange folk up in the clubs, boys.
Thought about a neck knife instead of carrying in the shorts?

Take a looks at Bradford Knives Guardian in the length that suits your fancy. Made in WA with great materials and finish and a very good value.

Not a huge proponent of having something around my neck during an altercation.

 

[Certaindeaf]

Say no to neck.

 

[Knobgoblin]

This was the clear winner.



$10 pawn shop cold steel cheapo.

 

[Knobgoblin]

4 oz. Sheath included. Disappears in waist band.

For the OP, Emerson La Griffe, designed by Fred Perrin.

BUT -- I'd rather have a kubaton or something that works on pressure points in a self defense scenario than a knife. Being covered in a stranger's blood -- particularly the type of stranger who is likely to be attacking innocents -- is better than being unable to get away, but potentially not by much depending on what's in the blood. Anything that is going to bring me in contact with large amounts of an attacker's blood is a last choice survival option for me. Of course, a last choice survival option may be necessary, therefore see paragraph 1.

A closed folder wrapped in a fist has a lot of overlooked utility in a "get away from the bad guy" scenario. It is also a self defense strategy that incorporates escalation of force that can be legitimately argued in a court. "I could have stabbed him 22 times until the threat stopped moving, but instead I utilized pressure point compliance techniques and/or knocked him dizzy, then ran" is a statement any jury can understand.

Basketball?? Screw that.
