    Fine analysis. I have a Fred Perrin small fixed blade collection. These are the best urban carry knives. Great update on these special blades. But in CA they are classified as dirks daggers. I watched this video several times. Enjoyable ! Thanks.

    I've been EDC'ing the white river backpacker (with a handle) for a couple years now. But the Lionsteel Macro, in M390 has taken over. Specially with the leather pocket sheath that comes with it. Didn't think I'd care for it, but it's changed my mind!

    Excellent collection. I really like the T Kell Knives. And that J. Williams is a beauty.
    I've been carrying the SOCP dagger In my front pocket recently. Ergonomics aside it is the fastest deployment of any fixed blade I've had so far. I also have the Tuya Knife LIlle ULF and their other small fixie as well. And last but not least I have a T.S.350 that I like to carry as well.
    Great show.

    @bills.2214 Před rokem +2

    I like the collection you have. The T.Kell knives are impressive. I can attest to the retention of the UltiClip. My current daily carry fixed blade has been from BGM Knives, and it is the Spade model. I have been very enamored with the quality of these knives, and I find his prices are reasonable. I have waivered with how I carry the fixed blade, mostly because of my pant choice. If the pocket is straight across, as with jeans, then I can clip the knife to the outer edge of the pocket. Again, the UltiClip won't move, and the sheath retention on the BGM knife is very good, it has the thumb press off spot. I actually have oriented the knife so that I could withdraw it in reverse grip, and it has worked very well. If I happen to wear pants with an angled pocket, then I end up clipping it inside my waist band. I have never thought of carrying the knife inside the pocket, I will have to explore this option. Thank you for sharing.

    Pocket fixed blades are the best knives in my opinion 👍.

    You should check out the new Hogue Extrak. Paper thin, full flat grind M4 sliceyness. Paper thin G-10 scales as well and light as a feather. Light and thin enough that I sometimes carry it as a neck knife and forget it's there.

    T. Kell is a reverse tanto. Wharncliffe shaped differently…but also offered.

    • @OGBladeReviews
      @OGBladeReviews  Před rokem +1

      I guess if a term is used long enough it gains in legitimacy! 😅 If you've been collecting blades as long as me, you would know that the term, "reverse tanto" did not exist 10 years ago or longer. I see the TKell more as an abrupt clip point that is sharpened or a Wharnecliff inspired shape. So if you take the business side of a tanto knife (Americanized chisel point tanto that is) and flip it so that it is on the straight edge, then the term tanto really no longer applies, since in order to be that it has to function like one or the term can no longer apply. Tantos cut with a tanto edge - right?
      So there's my logical argument, but the reality is that people will call knives what they will, and even give them pet names, so long as they work well for them, and behave. 😁🗡️👊

    Looking for some advice you may be able to help with!
    I have a BMKT edc1 sheepsfoot knife I absolutely love. It’s my daily carry in m390.
    I’ve been hunting for something similar or even identical in magnacut. But specifically in a sheepsfoot or variation of a sheepsfoot. To my surprise I’ve not had much luck finding anything slim and compact like my edc1 in magnacut.
    Do you know of any fixed blade knife like I’m describing?? Price is not a concern

      Thanks for asking! Actually, I've had a couple fixed blade customs built by Morgan Koens that I collaborated on. Of course these were usually only two or three made. However, if a production company were to make one of my designs, then most likely Kansept or Rike. 👊🗡️👍

    I would not carry any of those listed due to both sheath and knife design-----on knife ---I need a hand guard of some type and the ones that do are ring knives---which are pointless and annoying on this application----on sheath----i need a full purchase on grip before retraction and no repositioning-----

    • @OGBladeReviews
      @OGBladeReviews  Před rokem

      There may be a few small fixed blades that qualify for your needs but with most small ones you're going to get less guard and unfortunately sometimes less than a minimalist sheath. I do feel that the TKell offerings come the closest to perfection... Otherwise, you may need to go bigger. 👊🗡️👍
