just my opinion, but edc'ing a large fixed blade is like open carrying a handgun, it may be legal were you are but brings to much attention to it. i usually edc a small folder.

i carried the SOD for work...dont carry it in the city too many sheeple would be scared....i edc a SAK OHT with a 3"-4" PSK knife in the back pocket.

my ol lady carries a benchy 551 in the purse...

when imove to oregon i might start carrying the SOD....gotta feel teh town out first.

I hate to flop down $80 bucks for a nice rainwalker sheath for the beast for occasional trips to the woods. I guess I can carry it in my BK9 sheath for now. If I could carry it comfortably I would do it. I carry my S5 with regularity and always have a BK11 or Izula along my belt. It is legal here, and I am a landscaper...I don't get many strange looks. One of my helpers is a gal who carries a big Hori....it passes just fine....even looks a bit like Res C.

Thanks for the thoughts fellas!

agent iron i never got looks for busting out my golok to trim some philodendren or hack at some palms or spider lillies!

i know andy has a creepy pic of him edc'ing the DF under his jacket.

I was thinking that was his Mastiff. I could be wrong though....he did look a bit intmidating. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> but in a cool way <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I don't think I can even carry a fixed blade here. I EDC a folder. I have a BK-2 in the car. When I'm around the house or in the woods, I tend to carry a puukko in my pocket.

i edc in my pocket my emerson, but my carry all bag normally has a swamp warden and my cgdm.

7.62 shooter at Swamp Rat EDCs a Ratweiler. He's a contractor I believe, and uses it for construction related work.

I've carried fixed blade up to RMD in town frequently. I haven't in a while though, because I already carry so much weight in my pockets, and I don't really need it daily enough to warrant carrying it. I do EDC a Dumpster Mutt in my Maxped Jumbo though that I do EDC, but I leave it in the truck.


DFLE. I just stuck it in the (deep) right front pocket of my Rocawear jeans, and only the handle stuck out which was covered by my shirt and coat. Why? Just because I could. Only did it once. Pic is in the bathroom of Aldi. No, I didn't risk freaking anyone out...it was a single person bathroom, locking door, and my foot in front of the door blocking it from opening. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

see. i told you it was a creepy picture.

andy looks like the kind of guy you really want to be friends with in that picture. b/c you don't want to be on the bad side of him.

how deep are those pockets?

i've seen some of the people that frequent aldi's so i don't blame ya for edc the dogfather
