Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades

I wonder if the police will stop me for having that on my belt in the subway…

no

Granfors Bruks are in my opinion the finest axe company around. Just curious why you chose the mini hatchet? What kind of activities do you intend to use it for? I am in love with my forest axe but I don't know how I'd put such a small hatchet to work.

It is a holiday gift for him. I chose it because I didn't think it would be appropriate for him to be running around Brooklyn wielding an ax

Mainly will be used for zombies.

So like Jeff said- running around Brooklyn wielding an ax.

It's probably already been mentioned, but the UK has got strict laws on what sort of knife you can carry. It has to be a non-locking folder, with a blade under 3".

I'm liking the Silver Stag Stag Folder, which is legal here.

Available from Heinnie Haynes in the UK, or direct from Silver Stag in the US.

Incidentally, they also sell the Happy Camper. ???

I am partial to benchmark for everyday pocket clip carry.  I feel the axis lock is rock solid and very safe

@derivative666:

^benchmade?

I'm also guessing thats what he meant.

@urbanwoodsman:

You'd have to let those zombies get mighty close before you'd be able to start the chopping.

But when you are, you'll be in zombie-chopping heaven!..

Stupid spell check!!

Thanks Doug

Not a knife, but I wasn't sure where to post it.

I've just stumbled across the Kaufmann EDC Kit. It consists of a pair of tweezers, mini pry bar, key-sized screwdrivers and a tiny, waterproof lighter.

They sell a couple of pen knives too, which are more on-topic, and a Japanese saw in case you want to get into a fight with Urbanwoodsman and his hatchet.

[unharmed]

I use Japanese saws like that ^ almost exclusively these days. They're brilliant.

D2 tool steel blade with scagel slot.

Titanium construction.
Scales are Desert Iron Wood over jade G10 liners.
Extremely strong spring (slipjoint)

The first day I had my Sebenza, I managed to bend the clip (0.5 cm opening). I never was succesful in replacing the clip, as you may remember.

Couple of days ago, I dropped it whilst working. Picked it up, and noticed the clip HAD GONE BACK to its somewhat original position. Checked it: not loose at all either. Stoked
