troyec001 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 My main carry knife is a kershaw ken onion that I really like its small and light yet heavy duty. While at work I carry it an sog mulitool, kershaw ken onion vapor II, anda CRKT lake design thunderbolt 2. I really like kershae knives personally. I've owned smith and wesson, gerber, kershaw, and a few other makes of pocket knives and so far I like kershaw the best. Knives are like firearms everyone will have a different opinion.I will have to check out the sog flash knife, the knife on my powerlock mulitool is wicked Sharp.You sir, have good taste.

crb Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I jusr realized the kershaw that I carry in my left pocket is for a righty, I can't seem to open it left handed? Are left hand knives available? Assuming so any recommendations for any easy open weak hand knife? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevysoldier Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I'm a righty I just carry a pocket knife in each pocket since I can't have my 40. lol.

attentiongetter92 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 lol. I carry mine in font, near my belt buckle.

Are left hand knives available? Assuming so any recommendations for any easy open weak hand knife?Is there a way of flipping the thumb stub to the other side? Unless it's an auto. Never heard of a left handed knife. Kinda sounds funny....I ended up getting the Gerber 06 it's super sharp. Easily cuts he hair on your arm. And slide right through denim to cut some work jeans off onto shorts today. Since it was so hot outside. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crb Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 The clip isn't reversible and neither is the stud. The frame is beveled on one side to allow plenty of room for your thumb to flip it, the other (left handed) side isn't beveled, and the pocket clip is close to the stud making it difficult to access. I switched the smaller ken onion to the left pocket, because it has a stud on the back side to push the blade out, but I prefer a bigger blade on my left. I use the Hell out of the smallee ken onion. I'll have to look for a easy open reversible clip pocket knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 this one. a must for me is a clip so that I can carry on the belt vs the bulge in your pocketI've got two of these. I like them alot. But my benchmade presdo 520 is my EDC knife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawi kid Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 New question.... do you carry tip up or down? I was listening to a discussion on this and was wondering if anyone carried tip up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 My knives are set up for tip down. I know people that carry tip up. As they pull it out, it catches on the pocket and rotates the blade out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simplysix Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Knives are bad. Only police should carry them. Knives cause more cuts each year than any other sharp object on this Earth. I carry a scar on my pinky as a daily reminder of their inherent dangers.Statistically, U.S. children are 87% more likely to cut themselves on a knife than on a hi-capacity handgun.
