I added fixed blades to the title because there wasn't a dedicated thread, and we have a good start.

Which one did you want wood grips on? They both will work for what I do...

I wasn't able to drive home for Christmas and didn't want to check a bag full of knives, so I still have my Mora rainbow that I make tactical belts for and use for presents.

One of the best deals in all of the knife world IMO, the Folts minamalist bowie. Holds a good edge, feels SO right in the hand, and an excellent sheath. All for under $25.

Damn me Motard, it is a very nice little slicer.

Told ya, and doesn't the grip just feel right?

Told ya, and doesn't the grip just feel right?

Yes, and it is much more snazzy in person--the emerald in the grips: man jewelry.

Guys with the Folts minimalist bowie- how big are your hands? I've been eyeing the CRKTs like that, but I have fairly meaty hands.

 

[WNCmotard]

I dunno, I'm 6'2" and about 205lbs, and I'd say mine are average to slightly above average sized but I wouldn't call 'em meaty.

 

[RedOBXT]

I have meaty hands if that means wide palms and short fingers. That little knife should fit about any hand though.

Well, how's the saying go? "Show me yours and I'll show you mine"

I have a small collection of EDC folders and a few fixed blades. This isn't all of them, just pics I have on my Dropbox:

There's a few not pictured: BK9 + BK13 Remora, KJ Venom II, Spartan Akribis (coming tomorrow), Showtime, Leek BW, Cryo II BW, Recon-1 (Gen 1), Mora Companion, plus a few others I'm forgetting.
