What's in Yer Walle- Er Pocket?!

I'm really more of a knife guy these days than a gun guy, so when I noticed my pal Weerd Beard posting about a knife meme, could I ever resist the peer pressure?



I carry these two just about everywhere. The noticably colored tactical folder is my new Benchmade Griptilian. It is to EDC knives what the Glock 19 is to duty handguns and the Smith & Wesson 642 airweight is to CCW revolvers. It is a standard. I work at night, so harder to loose colors in my blades, isn't exactly a bad idea.

The second blade is my neat Cold Steel Mini-tac Tanto. It is in no means perfect, but it is a great offhand defensive carry knife. Excellent hand retention, remarkably sturdy, and sharp enough to make someone very very sorry for getting too close.

Nice! I just got my Grip re-profiled from Benchmade... dang this thing is sharp! It hasn't left my pocket since I got it back. Occasionally a VG10 dragonfly or a cheap Buck folder will accompany it.

Good point, black knives just flat disappear if you drop em at night... BTDT, never DID find the damn thing...
