I really want to carry a modern blade, and stop ruining my traditional folders for EDC tasks. I usually carry a Nontron Violon in a Böker Leather Sheath with the magnet clip, I don't want the knives to fly around in my pocket.Wartstein wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 12:10 amWhat I did not totally get so far:
- Do you, Palestrina, just want "dabble" into the world of modern folders a bit, but stay as close to "traditional" as possible (in this case perhaps something like a Chaparral with wood scales and its liners would be a good choice, also great for being carried without the clip) ?
- ... Or do you wish to make a more "radical change" (in this case linerless FRN, a serrated blade and a "modern" lock would be a way to go: Something like a Para 3 LW in SE for example) ?
My Buck 110 is a bit too bulky and heavy to EDC at work.
A friend of mine showed me his Zero Tolerance ZT350 (???), and it felt nice an sturdy, I just did not like the looks. For some reason I scrolled through the Internet quite aimless not finding anything which appealed to me, until I needed to sharpen a kitchen knife, that's when I thought "Yeah, maybe I could check out Spyderco. I like their Sharpmaker, might give it a shot."
Yeah, and now here I am. Oh, and im quite a collector myself, so my wife already rolled her eyes when I started showing her Spyderco knives
