You are absolutely right. There is always a tradeoff. I've been carrying this for a while now:


Yard Guard in a Kydex IWB sheath from our good buddy Rainwalker. The sheath works great, by the way. I couldn't ask for more in a Kydex IWB sheath.

The reason I carry this particular SY knife? It's the only SY knife I own.


I've been finding that it's a little bit bigger and heavier than I really want to carry every day, but only by a small margin. I also have a BATAC that I am going to order an IWB sheath for soon (I'm thinking leather this time), and that will most likely end up as my edc knife.
