Hi all,

Not another knife thread... <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

For a camerabag sized PSK: what would be your pick provided you already have an SAK or a Leatherman on your belt:
-a very small but sturdy fixed blade like a Benchmade 210 Snody Activator, Fallkniven WM1, Gene Ingram,...
-a folder like the mini RSK, Spyderco Manix,...

The multitool or SAK already has a blade on board, but this is not strong enough for heavy duty work or it would only get gunky during food prep.

It also has to be PHRASECENSOREDPOSTERSHOULDKNOWBETTER.-friendly so a 5 or 6 inch blade is already stretching it.

Preferably the blade should fit in or attached to a camera bag sized PSK to be unobtrusive.

Any sugestions on the fixed blade? I'm looking for an overall length of about 6 inches or below with a strong blade.

Thanks and have fun... <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I was looking for the same thing. Here is what I bought :

Spyderco Bill Moran drop-point knife, made of VG-10 steel. Blade length is 3 7/8". I like it a lot! It comes with a Tek-Lok sheath which allows you to mount the sheath according to your needs. Great outdoors knife if you ask me. It does not seem to be very popular though, unlike the Benchmades. People seem to buy Spyderco for their folding knives, not fixed blades. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

The Becker Necker. It has an interesting grip, but IMHO, it fits your parameters the most accurately.

Agreed. I bought one last month on advice in another thread. It's probably just right for your parameters.
