    • @danvondrasek
      @danvondrasek Рік тому

      Most of the laws only limit length on concealed carry knives, and don't have any rules on open carried. As long as it's visible, you can get away with a full 12 inch survival knife if you wanted-usually.
      But most cops don't know the laws, and think it means all knives have to be 3 inch or 2.5, etc.

    • @Kleiner_Lutz
      @Kleiner_Lutz Рік тому

      @@danvondrasek well our laws forbid us to carry any folder that opens one handed and locks open, that outrules most modern knives. Two handed folders are often slow and cumbersome to use. So you gotta opt for fixed blades if you want a legal knife, but that may not have a blade longer than 4 1/4 inch. Only good thing is our laws say nothing bout concealed carry, so I may hide my knives, which is good cause it saves me from the weird looks of people who don't carry knives

      @@mattholley3642 yes, german laws. The length restriction isn't actually that bad, I hardly need or want to carry a knife that is over 4inches long, and if I do I got what's called a justified purpose, which creates an exception to the rule. The complete ban on one-handed opening folders bothers me much more cause it bans the type of knife that is usually most practical to carry and safest to use. If you want to go with a folder.

    My edc stuff is my older SOG mulittool , Tops 4" fix blade police Interceptor and a Tops/Fox collaboration tanto folder. Different tools for different jobs. Honestly, nothing beats the Tops police Interceptor for me, been daily carrying for over 10 years, use it quite a bit for prying stuff open or taking apart. The tanto tip never fails, it's 1095 and holds an edge. I've pretty much worn-out the first and bought another. For my outdoor and bug out bag I have a Tops Operator 7 and Skullcrusher. I have lots of different brands and blades, but these just work no matter what. I retired my old Cold Steel Recon V Tanto, was my bush blade for 25 years, the last 2-3 years have been my Tops Operator 7.

    The only issue for me with carrying a smaller fixed blade is whenever I try the damn things are too small for me to get a good grip. I'm cursed with bear paws for hands essentially. A lot of smaller fixed blades are you there uncomfortable to carry or I'll have 2 fingers hanging off the edge while I'm trying to grab it.
    If I had a knife that was somewhere between 4 and 4 and a 1/2 inches long for the blade Is with a decent handle that my hand could fit properly I pretty much carry that every day

    When I carry fixed, I usually carry an Izula 2 horizontally, owb, with the handle end slightly canted downward, just to the right of my belt buckle, near my front-center waistband. On my body, this is how it conceals the best beneath my shirt. But I had always been only carrying it in the colder months because I dress a lot lighter in the summer and it prints with my summer t shirts. Lately, I have realized that I can still carry it in the summer by simply putting it in my pocket. 😂 I have an Armatus Carry sheath that has a thumb ramp, so it can be unsheathed in the pocket and drawn. I am kind of on a fixed blade kick, so I’m currently preferring to carry the fixed all the time if possible instead of a folder. My izula 2 is a black oxide version, so it doesn’t have the powder coat, and is therefore a bit thinner, but it does kinda smell like pennies that have been soaked in piss. Lol. That acidic chemical reaction of the black oxide coating stinks and hasn’t faded much in a few years. But not having the powder coat makes the knife thinner and more slicey. I’m currently on the quest for a certain different small fixed blade, if I can get lucky on a small batch drop. I like the izula 2 better than the version 1 because I’m not a fan of 3 finger grip and the regular izula is just a little too small handle for me.

  • @danvondrasek
    @danvondrasek Рік тому

    100% prefer fixed over folding. I don't use expensive knives much, because the most im cutting is boxes or some bank line or para cord. That can be done with a cheap Mora 511. They're cheap enough where I can buy 30, and keep them everywhere that I need one, while still being good enough steel to keep an edge and fix with my pocket diamond.
    I only carry the nice ones when I'm dressed up. That way when I have to cut a package open or something everyone goes "oo that's pretty nice"
