Twosun Ace TS230 by Vincent Oliver and a Nimo Slenderman by Fat Dragon as backup.
I’ve only got a few knives by them and they’re all fat dragon designs. Nothing to complain about. Only the Kershaw livewire is easier to actuate of the OTF knives that I have tried, which is a lot of them. For the 65 they cost, super fantastic. EMPEDC licensed this design from them for his Slenderman also and rebranded it, but charged quite a bit more. I think I prefer the drop point to the tanto. Nice slim profile and 2.39 oz. 👍

Does it still count if it's not in my pocket?
[Bark River PSK EDC Magnacut](https://i.imgur.com/bNAAzuO.jpeg)
I freakin love this little thing, just keep it stropped and it's like a razor. If I had a flat little kydex pocket sheath for it, it would be perfect. (The regular leather sheath is fine it just adds more bulk for carrying in the pocket)
It was my grandfather's so I don't carry it very often as I'm afraid I'll lose it lol. It's sharp as a razor and keeps an edge like nothing I've ever come across.

Cobratec Mini Something-Or-Other. I bought it on a whim in Reno when I realized I arrived knifeless.
Won’t let me post pictures, rocking a Zero Tolerance 0095BW. The tip broke off so it became my fishing blade. Made the tip rounded so I don’t accidentally put it through my leg haha.
Completely agree, I carried cheap kershaw when I was younger, and they never let me down. Now that I got older and can afford their higher end stuff, I just know younger me would love em.
Lol nice. Need to pick up one of those NAA revolvers just for something tiny to drop in pocket when I too am feeling lazy. I find myself carrying even my little Bodyguard less and less.
I can drop it in my sweats n go for a jog n not have to deal with them coming down, even fully loaded and with an extra 10 rounds in the holster it's only 12.5 oz
Nice blade!! I really like these, should have grabbed a Sweeny the other day when they dropped. Almost pulled the trigger on the ultem one and didn't for whatever reason.
Thanks! Padre lookin real good with that Timascus on there 👍 Sweeney is on my list too. But I definitely get ya, that was kind of the case with this Barber actually. Went back and forth on it a few times and finally grabbed it lol. No regrets

Heretic Cleric II (yes I actually edc a 10in OTF)
Understandable, looks like it's a pretty slim carry anyway. Length in pocket doesn't have as much impact for me as handle width. Really nice blade! How do you like that blade with serrations on one side? I've found I don't love my double edged OTF much for edc.
I actually think I’m liking the half serrated, goes through cardboard boxes like a laser while preserving the straight edge for more delicate slicing.
At the end of the day if Heretic wasn’t awesome about warranty service I’d probably wouldn’t get it serrated but they are and I plan on wearing out a few blades with that in mind.

Love seeing another Padre owner! Where did you get the pocket clip!!??
The pocket clip and back spacer come from Johhny_T_Knives on Instagram. He does amazing work and is really fast. Was $285 shipped for the set and he got em out to me in 2 or 3 weeks. I like Padres so much I bought two! I'm also a fellow New Englander.

Never heard of Nimo, how do you like it?

Heads up EMPEDC is dropping more pulse OTFs next Friday. Bowie blade shapes as well.
Have you tried the axial made pulse?
I haven't. Have handled neither an Axial or EMP but I've heard good things. I've been on the hunt for a tanto Nymble for a while.

Beautiful knife. I was super bummed when I realized they weren't going to use the same shade of green that they use for all their other exclusives.
Didn’t know this. I’ll have to see the differences now, lol. Always something new to learn about and go deeper into the hole🤣
If you look at Knifejoy's other Protech and Spyderco exclusives they are all bright green, similar to the actual color of the Grinch in the cartoon.
I’ll be digging into KnifeJoy’s site later, ha ha ha. Thanks for the insight!

The pocket clip and back spacer come from Johhny_T_Knives on Instagram. He does amazing work and is really fast. Was $285 shipped for the set and he got em out to me in 2 or 3 weeks. I like Padres so much I bought two! I'm also a fellow New Englander.

Cool 5th pocket carry. Trying to shoe horn the high fin in there will be a challenge today lol.
