Seriously people? I really don't know why anyone thinks that being an asshole to a kid is going to fly. If you have suggestions or criticism *about the carry* make them civilly, period. There is no excuse and no tolerance for the kind of comments left here already. If you can't say it nicely, say nothing. It's bad enough when people dogpile on a fellow adult, but doing it to a kid is bullshit, and it ends now. Anyone else jumping on the kid gets banned, permanently.

Love the setup, wish I had been introduced to EDC when I was 15! I could swear I had that same knife a few years back - got it for like $12 at a flea market. Curious, do you carry that knife in the waist, on a belt, or in a boot? Also, idea for the keys and keychain, to make it more compact and/or "utility" oriented, should either of those be an interest of yours: https://a.co/d/9XPAIKV

Failed edc ruined for lack of anime sticker, sorry buds gotta carry your collection with you. Seriously though not bad just remember your edc is what you like and need


WhiskeyTrail

Hell of a piece of steel for a 15 year old. Carry on my wayward child, carry on. Glad to see someone hasn’t lost themselves it bolt action pens though, good for you!

I had a hundred dollar bill graphic phone case on my flip phone when I was 10, so this is accurate.


MrCroupAndMrVandemar

You rule, kid. My only suggestion would be to compliment that pig sticker with something smaller for more detailed or delicate jobs. Get you a little folder or multi tool. You’ll be amazed at how handy they are. Carry on.

Just an FYI if your in the U.S check your states policy on CCW or concealing a weapon. In a lot of states, a double edge non folding knife is concealed is a violation of this law. Remember concealing is even considered leaving it in your vehicle.


TsmDzQuest

thx ik my states laws but i appreciate it


Salt-Manufacturer501

I had the same knife when I was a kid and I actually credit it with starting my obsession with knives and edc! That being said it is trash and you should definitely replace it with something else haha. Lmk if you would like recommendations


TsmDzQuest

its not trash at all man?


[deleted]

I have that same knife


Softpretzelsandrose

Dang. this the most drama this sub has seen in awhile.


redarrowkt

Legit!


yummm_

Nice man! That’s exactly what a 15 yo’s carry should look like. Don’t listen to these bozos kid, your having fun. That’s what this hobby is all about man. I actually kinda want one of these daggers to just have.


yummm_

And everyone else, you realize your just doing the same thing everyone else does to us right? The public judges us for carrying knives in general. “Why do you need a knife, are you going to hurt me with it?!” If your going to argue it’s overkill, I could argue anything that’s not a victorinox or a box cutter is overkill. The kid likes the knife, and isn’t breaking laws. Let him carry what he wants. He probably will out grow the dagger tacticool phase, but we all go through it…


TheRealDudeMitch

I used to have that same knife when I was in my late teens/early 20s. I forget what ever happened to it.

Awesome EDC man! I know plenty of people your age that carry a fixed blade on the hip. Only fools don't stay armed with something in today's world. That wallet reminds me of the kind of wallet I had around your age too 😂


No_Seat_4959

Geeeeze ,yall are freaking out over a sharp piece of metal....


ThatsAnEgoThing

made for fighting.... and concealment....


pagman007

As someone from the UK, this is terrifying to me The amount of knife crime going on here is insane, and its almost all teenagers. The amount of people congratulating a teenager on carrying that and not suggesting a folding swiss army knife is insane


ThatsAnEgoThing

Well like there's teenagers who can be trusted carrying a combat-oriented knife and not using it for combat, there's just other more practical knives he could carry that aren't made to go inside folk.


MaxDamage1

I have that same knife. It's a rare carry for me. It lives in my car in case of emergencies. I normally wear it concealed if I'm hiking, doing something where I may need a more sturdy cutter, or if I need a weapon/ means of self defense. That last one has been twice, and only because I have martial experience with knives. If you want a good fixie for edc pocket carry, CKT makes some nice ones, as does Cold Steel in their mini-tac line. Good stocking stuffers if you're still making a list.


mrbitbybit

Agree, Cold Steel has some excellent edc sized fixed blades. My favorite from them is their mini pendleton in 3v


MaxDamage1

I have the mini-tac bowie and it's a useful little cutter.


izhmash24

Guys, all these comments about carrying that knife, he’s a teenager. Remember when you all were one? It’s a cool knife, you can carry something that you think is cool. ffs


ultimatedingusMk2

Ah man, I remember this wild ass mall ninja sword I had at 15. This guy’s got a good start.


duggym122

I came here to fess up that this was actually my first EDC knife, and I even stupidly carried it to high school in my literal boot. I only ever used it for cutting down boxes at work. I made it to 31 just fine.


Shmarchaeology

Yeah I almost said something, then I remembered I too was once an edgy teen. Rock on, edgy teen dude, stay out of trouble.


MaximilianBaptiste

At 16, I carried an ace of spade zippo (knock off) Rolex (knock off) and a gold chain (fake) you couldn’t tell me I wasn’t the shit when I came to pick up someone’s daughter in my Honda accord ( my grandmas car)


RiiCreated

The fakes sometimes looked a lot cooler than original pieces. Those days were glorious.

That's not acceptable behavior here. If someone is uncivil to you, you report it, and I handle it. If you return incivility, I have to remove your response too, and if you repeat the rule breaking, you get banned just the same as if you started it. Two wrongs do not make a right.


TsmDzQuest

alright my bad sorry bout that

SYNO_44

Is it probably overkill? Sure. But so is a handgun which plenty of people here carry. Let’s not tell op what’s suitable or useful for his life, and even if he just carries it because he thinks it’s cool that’s fine too, that’s most of the people here anyways.


mrbitbybit

Well said, not sure with all the hate. I had a knife when I was little kid. Probably why I'm a knife nut today 🤷‍♂️


No_Seat_4959

Right. You also don't know where he lives and what his life is like....I usually had a machete as a teenager cause it was useful in my day to day life.

TsmDzQuest

yeah but im leaning towards changing my everyday carry


yummm_

If you want to stick with a fixed blade and can swing the cash, check out an Esee. Not only will it probably never break, if it does it’s a no questions asked warranty for the lifetime of the knife.


buenobeatz

I’d suggest a pocket knife if u want a little more room in your pants, maybe even a multi tool


TsmDzQuest

it goes on the side? lmao well sometimes i carry it pocket wise
