Post Your EDC Blade

This is what's in my Tac bag for when I enter the woods. I carry the S&W full tang for my EDC at the moment.

EDC? Just a plain old Buck 110 since the mid '70's. Got lot's of other blades, but the Buck is the one I wear more or less everyday, usually with the original leather, but did make a nice wood holster for it a few years ago for when I get dressed up - which isn't very often. ;)

I have absolutely no training regarding using a knife as a weapon so I guess I'd consider it mostly a utility and an extreme backup weapon but this SOG Aegis has been in my pocket for several years. Holds and edge and has a very useful fat bellied blade. I thought eventually the fact that it has no metal liner would lead to a failure near the lockup but never a problem. Best $60 I ever spent.

You might want to look into getting some training, even tho very few people would ever have a need to apply it, even in the military. A knowledge of human anatomy is required to be effective in either offense or defense. Placement is even more important with a blade than it is with a bullet. ;)

Nice blades fellahs. The training statement is very true Gene. My buddy is a marine and put a KABAR, very similar to shooter13's, in an insurgents temple while clearing a house in the sandbox.

I know enough about fighting knives to know what you say is true. Without training, it's just a pocket knife. But I often need a pocket knife so it works out alright until I can find the time and money get some knife training. I keep taking firearms classes instead.

Same here, although the USMC was kind enough to bestow some knife fighting instruction. Never have had occasion to put it to use (well once, but that was in a land far away and many years ago). The thing to remember with it is that if you can't accept being cut, stay out of the fight. ;)
 
just checking, there are some interesting and mighty clean looking EDC's in here......my EDC is always getting misused..... about ED.
Its been a good knife.....pri bar, hole digger , awl, saw, utensil and fire steel scraper
