I’m looking for a little EDC fixed blade, probably about 4” blade (give or take an inch, depending on style). I’m not particular on sheath, handle material or “fanciness,” in fact I’d like to keep it to around $75-$100 (Which I know means no custom jobs.) Predominant use would be EDC tasks with a focus on bushcraft and survival.
Likes:
-Full tang
-Strikeable with a ferro rod (not a deal breaker)
-Easier to sharpen
Dislikes:
-DEEP finger choils (did not like the fit of my EsKaBar, prefer a more uniform handle shape. A little contouring would be okay.)
That’s about it really. I don’t want anything really fancy, but I’d like something that’s not a $15 Walmart special. I just would prefer to spend my money locally from another member before I go online.
Something in the vein of a Condor Bushlore, various bushcrafts and Kepharts; ESEE, Ontario, TOPS, Condor, Cold Steel quality...
Thanks for the input!
