New EDC

[Bardster]

For a while now I have been flirting with the law and my EDC has been a locking folder, usually a Gerber Gatormate or more recently a ToolLogic SL3 (Kindly sold to me by Rapidboy), Well no more!
My New EDC arrived today - a Lone Wolf Loveless Cityknife.

I fell in love with the styling of this knife as soon as a saw it and when it arrived today I wasn't disapointed. It feels comfortable and safe in the hand. The action is firm but not too firm - it is possible to open with one hand if necessary. It came "shaving" sharp and with a micro bevel looks easy to maintain with my gerber pocket sharpener.
Details
Blade Length: 2.60 in, 6.60 cm
Folded Length: 3.75 in, 9.53 cm
Overall Weight: 2.60 oz
Blade Material: LV-03 high-carbon stainless steel
Handle Material: Stainless steel w/green canvas Micarta inlays

All in all I think this is going to by my EDC for a long while.

No sign of any quality problems that i can see - it was mentioned over on BB but seems to have been delt with.
I paid £70 for mine from www.abetterworld.co.uk - had to wait a week but was worth it. Heinnie sells it for £99 I think. www.extremeoutdoorgear.co.uk have them also for £72 or £100 for the snakewood of buffalo version. To be honest I really like the canvas micarta I think buffalo would be too smooth and slippery as an everyday work knife.

A while back a friend of mine sent me one of these for a braid...I was nearly tempted to order one then, and now am wondering again. It was a nicely done knife and the wharncliffe is one of my favorite shapes.

Nice.

Here is my braid bit....

The rest is at JM's if you are interested:

A very nicely shaped knife indeed. The only problem I can see is that I personally don't like the scales. But I'm sure they come in other designs .

Oh and the slight problem with the law .

This is a slipjoint so no issues with the laws as I understand them over there. The example I had was nicely sprung with solid opening so it should make an outstanding choice for legal carry.

Its good thing that the blade is non-locking but still the actual blade exceeds 3" so it is deemed illegal without reasonable excuse to carry the knife.

The blade length is only 2.6 inches, making it perfectly legal

Cheers for the link too schwert

Oh ai. Sorry about that I was looking at the folded length.
