EDC fixed blades

[Member 53328]

Who carries a fixed blade? If you do what kind and in what configuration do you carry it? Legalities set aside. I am not looking to carry a Kbar like Jax Teller on Sons of Anarchy, I'm more of a fan of the concealed approach. Lol. Thanks.

Carrying a fixed blade this size would be.. difficult.

My carry blades are inexpensive Pocket folder, Boot knife, Boot knife, neck knife
My blades are utility cutters, and slashers to buy distance from a threat.

I carry a Puuko, just off my belt, I don't see any need for concealment. It will shave you MUCH closer than you will find comfortable. As I said elsewhere, I don't TRUST folding knives.

I have one of these as well. It is ok but I am not a huge fan of the angled handle. Ideally I want something to carry horizontally along the waist line. I am not fond of things around my neck and have never really liked the ankle/boot knife idea. Although if I could find some way to securely attach a knife to the inside of my cowboy boots I may try it.

It's not a great knife for functionality.
More of a stabby slashy option with a ton of mounting options.
Usually a 5th or 6th on body, or an in vehicle off body.

I make what I call a cross draw sheath, though I personally use it on my strong side, either above my back pocket, or next to my buckle, depending on what I'm doing. They sit at a natural draw angle and hang just hidden by the hem of a carhartt t-shirt. Works well with a small knife, these are about a 3"blade.

I carry one of these at 1:00 on my belt. Horizontal mount. Easy push button draw. $29 on Ebay. I have given at least one to family.

I like the looks of that one. I was unhappy to see the China thing as well, but SOME quality things do come out of there. The kydex is a total fail. There's enough plastic in the world.

I carry this often enough, but not "every day", so to speak.

I've gone to folding knives in the past decade but I used to carry a little CRKT HAWK K-AT. It's a handy little all weather thing. It'll probably end up my go/EDC bag.
