Short Blades With Big Grips

[ugaarguy]

MM504, that pocket butcher is sweet.

Bix, I'm trying to round up one, maybe two, more fixed blade(s) for part two of the review.

Thank you all for the compliments.

I really like the Buck Hartsook for small and useful.
Lots of fakes out there of it so make sure you get one from a reputable dealer.

I've EDC'd a Kershaw Chive for well over a year now. Blade length is 1-15/16 and it has been supremely useful.

I don't know if all of them are frame locks, but mine is a stonewashed frame locking model.

Not super restrictive, but a lot of cities have a 3" cut-off. I love my CQC-14 for carrying around town. Just under 3" blade, but fullsize and beefy in every other way.

The Al Mar SLB has a sub 2.5 inch blade; I've read many positive reviews of it but have no first hand experience ....

And I do own one of these - Three Sisters Forge CCT. Blade steel is Elmax

I've handled an SLB and it was a very nice little knife.
