    I have a para 3 LW in CTS BD1N. It’s my go to when I have gym shorts on. Sticky mirror edge, thin, slicey, and easy to sharpen. Zero complaints

  • @jf4313
    @jf4313 Před měsícem +1

    The best shorts knife for the waistband is the civivi button lock elementum. The one that’s button lock only in micarta. 100% the best for shorts. ( I started writing this 2 minutes into the video) …. so stoked to see you included it.

  • @HorsepowerHeaven
    @HorsepowerHeaven Před měsícem

    When I’m wearing shorts I usually carry my Vosteed Racoon, Civivi Qubit, Native 5 LW or cf elite bugout. Most likely my bugout, I got married with it in my pocket so I love having it with me in the summer months. Great video thanks!

  • @tulpenhiney
    @tulpenhiney Před měsícem +1

    I'm a beer delivery guy. I carry the reate Exo more than anything else while delivering. I switch to fairly thin shorts during the summer since its hot as fuck in CO matched with afternoon rainstorms etc. The exo is quick, light, and good enough for cutting plastic and such off of cases. Also having something that's smaller means I can use my leg and body while kicking around kegs.

    CJRB Mini Pyrite.
    1.87oz and a blade that will cut whatever you'd realistically need to cut while wearing shorts.

    Great call on the Real Steel Luna. I carry my wooden one quite a bit in summer because it weighs almost nothing.

    @danpennella Před měsícem

    I wear shorts all year long, never pants so I have a lot of practice figuring out what knives go well with shorts. My normal work and every day shorts can handle every knife in the collection but for the gym short situations that’s where this video will come in handy! The Deka, Atom, and all 4 variations of the pyrite I have are my favorites with gym shorts. I am eyeing the Quiet Carry Waypoint Large and this video I think firmed up my decision to get it! Thanks again Jerad!

  • @BrockRimington

    Purchased and installed Practical3DP’s Linerless Aluminum scales for the Civivi Vision FG. The solid aluminum scales make the knife incredibly light.

  • @jdigi1015
    @jdigi1015 Před měsícem

    Great vid. I have light shorts/trunks carried for 20+ years in the summer. Always waistband. Camping, swimming, daily edc. Central CA so very hot in the summers. My fav answer has been a CS Recon1 since they went to no liner and dlc coating. Something about the clip placement just sits right. Super comfortable. The edge is the only thing that oxidizes. I do prefer the S35VN to the XTC for edge corrosion. And I did use to smooth out the older peel ply g10 for comfort. But a nice fit for this. And nice to have a big blade for 1 knife solution. Keep killin it Neeves Kives. Love all your content!!!

  • @jasonbruchmiller4580
    @jasonbruchmiller4580 Před měsícem

    I've been rocking the Quiet Carry drift when I wanna be fancy and the Spyderco Native 5 salt. I appreciate the similar ergonomics between the two. Looking at replacing the frn with some AWT scales soon. Turns out not all Magnacut is the same when it comes to stainlessness. CBRx just did a deep dive on the Benchmade Adira along side the Native 5 salt and MKM Yipper. Turns out optimal heat treat matters. Softer Magnacut is less corrosion resistant. Take a wild guess how the Benchmade fared.

  • @louzher6968

  • @jordy703
    @jordy703 Před měsícem

    You should have mentioned the Spyderco manix 2 lightweight 😉. Full size great folder and you don’t even feel it in your basketball shorts. The best ever in my opinion. Thx

  • @MisterDeets
    @MisterDeets Před měsícem +1

    Kind of expected the Manix 2 Lightweight in this category, but it has been out a while and it isn't likely to be thought of in the same way these newer knives are. It has a good enough clip that is easily swapped for a deep carry clip and it weighs next to nothing considering it's size. I would take that over every other knife displayed here.

  • @BC08
    @BC08 Před měsícem

    Benchmade 940-1 is the ultimate shorts knife, IMO.

    PRO TIP (for the Vision FG): There are linerless aluminum scales from a seller on Etsy that brings the weight down to 2.7oz (my pattern is the diamond texture with no speed holes. speed holes might bring it under 2.5 (I'm not 100%)..

    @alanb6196 Před měsícem

    I'm not a collector, my few knives are for utility purposes. So I've pretty much reached my total number of knives I'll ever need(I think 10 at the moment). What I've found out about these is that I REALLY like my CKT Pilar 3 the most. By far the most carried. Because of this, it really needed disassembly for cleaning because the action had become extremely "gritty". I'm not incompetent, but this thing WILL NOT go back together properly. Specifically at the pivot. Like I didn't put the bearings/washer back in. I did... The blade just flops around, and the frame/scale won't tighten any more. At a loss. Any advice, or should I just send it to you for an expert fix?

    • @MikeJ602
      @MikeJ602 Před měsícem +1

      Ikbs bearings? They’re free floating not caged correct? And if I understand it’s not locking when open? If all this is true you may have a bearing loose in there that’s preventing the lock bar from engaging. Also make sure the female part of the pivot is pushed all the way in and lined up how it should be. I don’t own the knife just trying to help.
