I have for sale the spear of destiny. One million dollars and you can rule the world. I get it back the day after you turn into a Corpse. It's a Front Pocket EDC Chef Knife.

“It’s in the cheaper side $135-$175”. Ouch, right in my poors.

I highly recommend the Old Timer Sharpfinger for a nice lil fixed blade with a quality leather sheath and they are being made in the USA again. I just picked one up at walmart for 23 bucks, but on the OT website its about 35. Cheers

I like your content but honestly, I'm not going for $200+, boutique, or limited runs / drops. I like fix blades and you can get quality for under $140.

You mean like a Bradford?

My top 3 - 1. Esee Izula - Two blade options 1095 = 55 USD to about 75 USD and S35v - around 80-100 USD (I carry this one more so than any other knife in the S35v version) Designed and made in America, no questions asked lifetime warranty. A lot of aftermarket support for scales and sheaths. I prefer RK Custom Sheaths and Armatus Carry. 2. Mora Eldris - Fantastic functional knife for around 25 USD on sale to about 40 USD . Every thing from Bushcraft to EDC, pocketable, belt carry, neck whatever. 3. Esee 3 - Honestly I often EDC belt carry larger knives and the 3 is probably the largest knife you can get away with pocket carry but typically its best carried on the belt. Again both 1095 and S35v options are great depending on your budget and preferences. Again huge aftermarket support and no questions asked warranty.

Taylor, your new stuff is cool and all but i keep going back to all your EDC Weekly/Complete My Carry vids from a few years ago, I wish you would bring them back 🔪. Comment if you agree

What an amazing list of knives! Thanks so much for having us part of it. Just wait until you see our new EDC fixed blade for 2024. We are hoping to reveal it at Blade Show Atlanta 2024. All I can say is it’s compact and super slicey. I hope you like hollow ground MagnaCut.

Hey Guys, Trevin from Roac! - Another incredible lineup, Taylor. It's always fun to see the current state of your Guardian 3 sheath, the patina is *chef's kiss* and the bruised denim hue just kicks it up a notch. Thanks for including us in your rundown of these models, going to have to hit to the design board on a couple of them! If I had to add more to the list, I'd say the L.T Wright Patriot & Maverick Colt deserve a look. I stayed away from the Patriot for too long because of no lanyard hole and the knobby end of the handle, but once I pulled the trigger and got it in hand I was sold. Super comfy, great little cutter, and very pocketable. I've been testing out a micro Bushcraft/Survival style pocket clip sheath setup for it, with a few purposeful bells and whistles, and will be making it available shortly. Another MUCH BIGGER run of Guardian 3 sheaths will be available soon. I've been working on a new design since last September and will be launching it very soon!

I absolutely adore my Jakebcreates Chickadee with an oakcityleathersupply sheath. It carries so well, plenty of blade with just enough handle for me to comfortably use it.

I've got the Griffin Co. Scout and Scout Medic and I absolutely love both of them. Fantastic list of options. Keep the videos coming.

Great video! I gotta say, my go to pocket fixed blade is the Primitive Woodsman EDC. Great size, deceptively light weight and you can buy em with a leather pocket sheath and multi clip

I took the belt loop attachment off of my Benchmade Anonimus and have been edc-ing it in my front right pocket for months now,... love it!

I carry a Bradford 3 in Magnacut with carbon fiber scales. Love that knife

My EDC fixed blade lately has been the Boker Little Dvalin. I like a thick, chonky blade that feels like it can do some serious work. Love the looks, modified it a bit by removing the Teflon coating on the D2 blade, and sculpting the sheath to add clearance for the front finger while fully sheathed. Setup for scout carry, and all for $60 Canadian.

My favorite general edc fixed blade atm is the Rogan Field Knife Compact. My work edc is the Rogan Ranger. I’ve really come to love chisel grinds.

Yes I love the Bradford Guardian line of knives & the White River M1 Caper. Never leave home without one of these. The errors on the White River are the best.

Great list. :) My top 3 small fixed blades. Budget. Ferrum forge lackey. Middle ground. Bmkt edc1. Fancy. Winkler sd1.

Backed the Scout feather a few weeks ago. Thanks for the mini review.

Esee Izula 2, might work for you( kydex, good clip), on a separate note the Esee is great for appendix carry with clip out/ hardwear in, you would be surprised how comfortable and useful that is.

I absolutely adore my fixed barlow from boker. It's everything I wanted....except the sheath it comes with is AWEFUL. Haven't found a good replacement yet. Keep us posted.

I have the Guardian 3 and got the 3.2 as well. I gotta say the little update on the 3.2 really makes a big difference in handling.

Great top ten picks. I finally picked up the Bradford Guardian 3. That Boker AK1 is next.

My M1 Pro has been a great hiking companion since I got it, I have 3xl hands and I find it very comfy. Not something I usually find in small fixed blades. I am getting the magnacut version now that it’s out 😁

Great video! I have a Schwartz Overland Sport. It is indeed fantastic, but the sheath is quite wide for my pockets. I switched from an Ulticlip to IWB loops, and now it's better. I also have that Burnley Fixed Barlow in OD micarta and brass pins. It's a stout, tough little bugger, not a slicer. Both these knives are super interesting.

I have tried a few in this genre as well. not many, but a few. My favorite so far has been the MKM Mikro. Excellent for detail-oriented tasks and super compact carry. The sheath style is highly recommended (except if you work around metal a lot like I do) and sold separately. I am greatly anticipating David C. Anderson's Pocket Tango that is supposed to be coming here soon (that has the same style sheath).

Been carrying the Overland Sport for a couple of months now and it's everything I had hoped it would be. I'm very interested in any of the Wickets and that Griffin Co. You're definitely right when you say there are so many good options out there, it can sometimes be overwhelming.

Great to see you show a winkler! I live in Wilkes and have Taylor sharpen by benchmade claymore every time I’m in the store (Duncan Guns). If you’ve never seen the video, Taylor did a great interview with Daniel Winkler and it explains a lot about why he makes his knives so “beefy” - Huge connection to the special operator divisions in the military.

Gmf 1 man.. my go to fixie. Love that you started with that❤

Love the video keep up the awesome content

Really nice presentations! You do a great job of helping with various choices folks can make, and also make it “fun”, which is a good thing. I am pretty big on EDC fixed blades, but also like folders. Thanks!

If you want a great pocket carry EDC blade check out the Creely Mako. I wasn't into pocket carry fixed at the time, always went with appendix carry. When I got the Mako in magnacut I had a kydex appendix sheath made. After a month or so I had to dress up a bit and decided to try the pocket sheath. I've been using it ever since. The blade is one of the best I've ever used, been a knife guy since I earned my first cub scout folder in 1971and this blade has made it through a year of daily use on a small ranch with only 2 strops. It's so light that you don't even notice that it's there bit it is so easily accessible, especially in jeans or overalls. The handle looks a bid weird but melts into your hand. Might be a bit narrow if you have extra large hands though, good for medium-large hands. The sheath changed the way I use knives with it's deep carry uniclip. Worth a look.

I have a Creely Mako as well. Great knife, well made, sheath is great. Knife fits snugly and deep into the sheath. I liked it so much that I looked up Gary at the last Blade Show to shake his hand and thank him for his work.

I’m personally a big fan of the benchmade hidden canyon hunter. I took the belt mounting equipment off the kydex sheath and it sits surprisingly flush in my back pocket. It’s super durable and stays sharp, and has an excellent blade to handle ratio. It’s a workhorse and I use it at work constantly. Can’t recommend it enough

I have been carrying the Petes Pirate Life Skelly and II leather wrapped the handle. AMAZING knife but I am also hunting for sheath options and might have to reach out to Oak City for something. I also have the Guardian 3 and love that knife too but again the sheath is an issue. I usually carry a folder in pocket and fixed on the belt (cross carry), so I am looking for slim cross carry options too. Great video Taylor, thanks for the great content!

Dylan at Oak City Leather makes excellent sheaths. I’ve ordered a few from him with the UltiClip and they’re great.

The Griffin Co. Scout is sweeeeet! And I agree, that sheath is awesome.

I’ve got a Jason Knight Hummingbird. Love the blade profile and the small utilitarian nature of the knife.

Hi Taylor, interesting video. From your list I liked the Bradford, the AK1 and the Black Rabbit the best. I still like to use the following fixed as an EDC: Satre - Extrema Ratio Heidi Blacksmith #1 - Bestech Lille Bjoern - Tuya All come in a Kydex, but fit into the leather sheath of the AK1 from dpsteelandleather. Then I also like the larger Charlie two from Pohl Force. The Charlie two and the Satre are wider and more robust blades that can be used more for rougher work. Greetings from Germany Gerd

I carry a wide variety of smaller fixed blades starting with a Yuca Bladeworks Persev It is great. Chris's sheaths are some of my favorites. My work carry blade is a Dauntless Dogbone, a Matt Helm design. I scored a Hot & Ready in AEB-L & canvas micarta. I added a deep carry sheath, it works better in the pencil pockets of Carhartts. Also, Greg Moffat's OPK. Simple, sharp, & pointy. Finally Temple Knives! The Vimana, basic, and clean. Just some other options for you to look at.

Thanks for the feedback ...you have my creative juices flowing! Great vid!

Seems pretty great for the price. I'll have to add it to my list. Thanks for sharing this!

Great video Tyler . I really want to get my hands on the new MKM pocket tango with the reverse tanto. I'm pretty new to pocket carrying a fixed blade. And that one has been speaking to me.

Awesome to see the Scout Feather, cannot wait to get mine.

I love my Bradford Guardian 3 & Winkler knives are amazing but once I started carrying the MKC Mini Speedgoat it was over … that is now my EDC … period!

Tayler that’s a great list of knives. Where can I buy one of those knife rolls? Preferably the larger one for my fixed blades. Thanks

Good stuff. We're fans of small EDC fixed blades here at the shop.

I have a guardian 3 and i actually love the original sheath it came with it lays horizontally on the belt nice and tight i wear it up front above my right pocket of my jeans

Would love to see this series continue. Maybe I different categories. Budget fixies, larger blades, etc. Lionsteel has some sweet options right now. Currently deciding between an M4 and B41 for a camp knife (The H1 is pretty sweet too).

I’ve been carrying the AK1 regularly for over a year now, and have just added the Overland Sport to the collection. The Overland Sport fits into the AK1’s sheath nicely and carries just as well if anyone is looking for another carrying option.

Always love all your content am missing the weekly live streams tho

my edc is the boker lucas burnley bff. has the inside the pocket leather sheath. i flippin love this knife. oh yeah, i got the wooden handle.

I've been rolling around with a Buck 113. Very classic looking, very nice ebony wood handle, big enough to get a full grip. Belt sheath, nice leather, good retention. Not sure if there are alternatives to the belt sheath though 😂

The Overland Sport is the one I want. Good video. Thanks

Try the Pocket Tango, you can find it at Knife Centter, great little fixed blade, Magnacut by the way, and you can order it with wood handles, carbon fiber or G10 I believe. I got the one with wood handles and is already getting patina, I love it!!

I love my Bradford G3 Sheepsfoot. I also have a regular G3 and a G3.2 Personally, i always carry it on my belt in a Kydex sheath and Tek-lok. I always have too many other things in my pockets, and i dont mind things on my belt.

Thanks for another great video! Quick question… Can I ask what waxed jacket you’re wearing in the still for this video? I can only see a bit but it looks 🔥

Love me a good EDC fixed blade, one you should give a look at is the Primitive Bear knives Hunter EDC. It’s my favorite out of all the ones I’ve owned

Not a fan of in pocket EDC fixed blades. I am a big fan of fixed EDC however, couple of years ago bought a TOPs C.U.T. 4.0 and have never been without it out doors. Excellent sheath as well. Have used it for bushcraft, game processing and personal defense, and it never lets me down. Holds a great edge with light touch up after heavy use. Great Knife!!

Thank you for fixed blade video. I haven't carried one in pocket. I like a workhorse knife, carry on belt. Can you do a budget friendly video on fixed blades please?

Nice video Taylor. Just purchased a Bradford 3.2 in magnacut.

If your interested in a great budget fied blade, the Artisan cutlery ses snake is a great knife. I've used 1 for a couple years now at work.

Cool video thanks. I bought a cheap cold steel with a gift card and a citadel as a bday present to self but those are my only fixed blades so far

Do you think a Kydex version of the leather sheath for the Griffin 2.5 is possible using the Discreet Carry Concept Clip? If so, what size clip would you recommend?

Cool fixed blades! I don't carry one but it is cool seeing them in people's carry!

CountyComm makes a nice fixed blade. The R4A has a 3.65" blade length, made in D2 Steel & nice kydex sheath.

I carry a Toor Darter every day and I love it!

I enjoyed the list. I own a Bradford but I like em a lil bigger. You should check out TRC. They have some of the best fixed blades. I keep it just under 4” but I also work outdoors

I've EDC'd a small fixed blade neck knife in conjunction with a folding knife for years now, usually a CRKT Minimalist, but now I'm concerning that Wicked now that I've seen yours. Lol. That's a great idea since I've already got the Viking Spark. Just Sayin.

do you have a vid with budget friendly "best edc fixed blades"? These are a bit salty for me atm love those scout feather and im thinking bout getting on the kickstarter. i totally agree with ya on the sheath issue. i like to carry a fixed blade but the sheaths ugh. i do like these deep pocket sheaths you are using on some of these. looks like ya got a new sub. thanks for your time

My one and only fixed knife is a Bradford Guardian 3.5 carried in a IWB Oak City Leather sheath. It works nice…

I carry the Joker Avispa with canvas micarta handle. It is a great knife that is also affordable. Another very discreet fixed bade I own is the Kizer Variable.

Great video, I myself am just starting to get into (compact) fixed knives atm. Here in Germany the Sven Kinast designed SK09 from his company Messerdepot is very popular right now. I don’t know if it’s available anywhere in the US, but it’s an awesome compact fixed blade.

Izula 2 in an appendix carry guardian 3 leather sheath is my favorite fixed blade combination and budget friendly

I just got the CRKT Razel compact and the sheath is my main problem. But I love the knife.

Taylor you hit the nail on the head!

Very cool stuff! I will order some leather sheath for my Esee Izula II just like yours.

Izula 2 in an appendix carry guardian 3 sheath is my favorite fixed blade combination and budget friendly

Looked at them for years, didn’t have a lot of money but wanted a small fixed blade for neck carry so finally broke down and bought a CRKT SPEW for 25 bucks. What a handy little fixed blade; it’s light, the kidex sheath has good retention. The blade can’t be beat for piercing tasks and it handles most edc tasks I run into on a day to day basis. For some of us, over a hundred dollars is expensive so this is a cheap option. Only negative I have is that it is made in China.

Great video EDC fixed nice nice.

Multitool in my pocket, fixed on my belt 11:00 cross draw. Flagrant Beard Havock has been my pick for a little due to the weight while but Esee Izula and Tops El Pionero also works. Looking to acquire a TKell this year. On the outdoor side of things: going to pick up a Condor Bushscot in 14c28n next month. 👍🏼 sgian dubh.

I am curious to know what you thought of the vosteed mink. Saw you carried it in your boker ak1 sheath in a fixed blade video a little while back. Seems like a great budget option in nitro v

I've been using the Barlow BFF and the AK1 for about a year now, they are awesome blades. I only need to get new sheets for them.

Go get that wood-handled Wicket!! Just dropped. Great video, and love this list.

I edc the Hogue Extrak with a Kydex sheath - lightweight and sharp!

Didn't realize the scout feather was a Kickstarter, looked it up and I like the look and price point so I decided to back outdoor element and I'll see it in June...lol

Been looking for an EDC fixed blade, i work in a feed mill and mostly open bags and boxes and have to fight off the odd horde of mice. What would you recommend?

Love the look of the Vero Axon. Wish it was available for purchase. I feel like its been 'Coming soon' forever. Lol.

Soooo of the ones I like the look of and that can be found. (Grrr I want that Jack Rabit or scout 2.5) are the Big Idea Ti Lookout and the Overland scout… which would you recommend. Never really EDCed a fixed blade

Great list! You should check out Bark River Knives. They had some great edc knives.

The Bornas is one of my favorite fixed blades for EDC. I got the rosewood and I’m not a huge fan if I’m hones, wish they sold their scales separately I wouldn’t mind trying out the G10. Also what is the material of the handle from that Bornas that’s in the middle because those look nice.

favorite fixed blade is a chert flint knife with deer femur handle. it's the knife I carry in my pocket if I'm going to be somewhere it's not illegal for me to carry a knife but the proprietors put up metal detectors anyway. you should do a video on the tactical fixed blade Walmart paring knives :D

I had a lot of fixed edc.. but the jackelope from white river rocks them all

I will swear up and down by ESEE Sencillo. I have an A2 version, but they also released one in Magnacut. The handle is a comfortable "soap bar" shape, the blade geometry keeps it slicy while maintaining a robust spine. Overall, I can't think of one thing that I would change about it...except maybe the clip that is on the sheath, but I got rid of it. That blade is hands down my favorite EDC.

That Griffin is sick!

Cool stuff!

Bekker Necker, a part of the BK line is an excellent EDC fixed blade, it does require a simple modification to the sheath.

Since you mentioned it already, the Boker Barlow BFF is a nice EDC carry. But you should checkt the new version that will come out end of March. The Boker BFF Packlite in Magnacut. That thing looks like it will be a great deal.

I always use a static belt line for my edc fixed blades. I personally carry an SRK-C without any trouble or dicomfort.

Great video. Some of those knives and sheaths are pricey or hard to find. I have been carrying pocket knives for over 40 years. What would you suggest for someone to start with that is available and affordable?
