Small Locking Blade Knives - The Only Way to Go
Category:Small locking blade knives are the way to go for every day carry. Carrying a pocket knife is a must for someone like myself and many of you out there. I have carried all sorts of locking blade knives to include small and large. The thing that seems to play the most important role in the long run is the size of that knife if you’re going to carry it in your front pocket.
I don’t want to tell you what you should carry in the way of small locking blade knives, but I can strongly recommend that if you’re not used to carrying a pocket knife or have never carried one before, you may want to consider purchasing a small locking blade pocket knife to get you started.
A lot of men go out and purchase these locking blade knives that are just way too big to lug around in your front jean pocket. I promise you, that thing may look mean, but you will certainly get tired of it wearing on your joint when you’re seated especially if you drive a lot or work in an officer.
Small locking blade knives are the way to go for the active gentleman. You won’t wear yourself raw and getting that thing in and out of your pocket will not be a problem.
I had this old Army buddy that carried this huge Buck knife in his front pocket. He loved to wear Wrangler jeans and I assure you that his pocket knife wore him out. When he reached into his pocket to retrieve it, you could see the grimace on his face as he had to put forth the effort to tug it loose. When he sat down, you had to life when sharp pain recognition would display across his face as the butt of that folded in blade would plunge into his hip joint.
Another option is to get hold of an old pocket knife and learn how to clean an old pocket knife, especially a small locking blade knife.
Again, let me emphasize, go with the small folding blade knives. You won’t regret it.
I tend to agree with you on locking blade knives. I’ve got some pretty big knives, but I’ve quickly realized the importance of keeping smaller knives on me.
I just read your posting on the small locking blade knives and I agree with you that small is the way to go. I would also add that being lightweight as well as being well built are also a factors that needs to be considered. I always have a knife with me, and one of the ones I like the most is the Swiss Army Adventurer Lockblade knife. This Lockblade knife weighs only 2.9 oz. and the Stainless Steel Blade is 3-1/2″ long. The total length closed is 4-1/4″. This Swiss Army Adventurer Lockblade knife is hardly noticeable in the pocket of a pair of jeans. As far as durability goes, the scratch resistant composite handles have kept this Adventurer knife, that I own, looking as new as the day I bought it 4 years ago. A good website to view this knife is http://www.swissknifeheadquarters.com/product/53601. This knife also has many other features that are desirable, but I will let you discover that yourself.
