I prefer fixed blades for dirty work. If it involves mud, sand, blood, guts, or food then it's not a job for the folder. Cleaning a folding knife reminds me of cleaning a gun. Cleaning a fixed blade reminds me of cleaning a spoon.

[@Kinetic.44]

Why not carry a real knife instead of these tiny things. Perfectly legal to carry a Bowie knife

[@Cal4mity]

@@Kinetic.44 look it's captain obvious with the most useless comment in the section. Probably because of worldwide varied laws preventing you from carrying full sized fixed blades. Many of the proud second amendment states still implement goofy blade restrictions anyways for civilians to work around. Try using that thing you carry around between your ears once in a while.

I have normally throughout the years gone back & forth between fixed, folder, both for probably a good 45/50 years. Laws did not really exist in the beginning... then became a real hassle.

[@Gator-357]

I also edc a fixed blade along with my folders. Sometimes a fixed blade is a better option. The folders I carry tho, a lock fail is about as likely as a fixed blade folding and they all open plenty fast enough that it's not even a thought.

[@bennyc409]

Couldn't agree more mate. Great selection of blades too!

[@SweetTooth8989]

I carry fixed blade quite often and generally prefer them to folders when I'm going to be using them outdoors, even opening boxes etc. But i also have a pretty good collection of folders and they have their place too. Especially if you work somewhere like an office, or you're going to a "fancy" event, or wedding. Even a restaurant etc. Certain situations are more "socially acceptable" to have folders but for general purpose i like small fixed blades. Even a good quality neck knife.

[@carlsberg-gs6rl]

Currently carrying a Sencut Waxahachie. Totally agree with your points for fixed blade carry, especially the maintenance part.

[@gregory4154]

Great analysis. They sit in your pocket as easily as a folder. Definitely prefer these over folders.

[@allosaurusfragilis7782]

Not quite. Can't beat a folder for ease of carry. Strong enough for most tasks. Do like a good fixed blade though, which is why I leave one on my boat.

[@guns4freedom]

[@urbanarcher3535]

Who did that GMF1 handle?

[@Just_another_guy23]

After I started getting more into edc knives, I couldn't find myself getting comfortable with a fixed blade so I finally opted a little Kershaw with a carbon fiber handle. I liked it so much I bought a second one. I broke the first one and still have my second. Although, I did fully switch my edc knife from the Kershaw to a really good quality made Benchmade CPM-Cruwear in OD green with a desert tan blade. It feels extremely durable, the blade holds a good edge, the springs are solid and not flimsy nor do they feel like they've gotten weaker over the year I've had it. It's an absolute workhorse. My only complaint about the fixed blade is the space they take up, I can stick my folding knife in my pocket with the clip and it takes up barely any room. If I had a fixed blade that size it wouldn't be good for a whole lot.

[@Stassa23]

@@Just_another_guy23 I love my pocket fixed blades but I will admit it has to carry like my folders in order for me to carry it often and that’s the ones I carry most.

[@rapierlynx]

I like that deep sheath with the clip. I wish more makers would provide them. I like the idea of a fixed blade that's as unobtrusive as a folder, but can still be used one-handed. I tried carrying a Minimalist in my pocket, but that's no longer one-handable.

[@Leftyotism]

You can attach a short paracord onto your belt loop or your belt, and also to the sheath. So when you then pull it out of your pocket it opens onehanded too.

Carried a liner lock folder for years as my work knife, up until the point in which a freak accident resulted in it folding forcefully on my pointer finger.

I would totally carry an EDC fixed blade if it wasn't for California laws..witch is, a fix blade CANNOT be concealed... So a 3-inch fixed blade has to be worn on the outside so it's visible but the cold steel XL espada can be concealed.. I really like that r&j Jack Saw

[@vegpwrshlominator1873]

Never had a problem when I lived in Cali the handle is visible outside the pocket so It’s not concealed and if it’s small enough it’s legal even if it’s in your pocket. Yeah the shirt might hang over it who cares.

Less maintenance? What kind of maintenance are you guys doing on your knives other than sharpening them? Serious question not trying to be smart

[@davidtaylor8672]

On folding knifes, most people oil, the pivots and bearing in them and even the blades depending on the steel you’re using should be oiled as well. You have to keep the locking mechanism clean and all the smaller parts in the handles with a fix blade, you can still oil the blade not have to worry about any of the pivots or anything like that

Traditional pocket knives also have very thin blade stock so it's not necessarily an issue inherent to all folders, but the thickness is one of the reasons I don't like modern folders. I carry belt knives because I just like them, but the one handed use is beneficial. Open carry only for me though, because I need it readily accessible and California doesn't allow " concealed fixed blades ".
