Fixed blade knife or Folder what do you perfer
|
Posted 2 months ago I carry a 4" fixed blade smith and wesson boot knife. I like it because all i have to do is pull the thing out and use it, I dont want to have to open a knife in a quick situation. I do like the sog flash it opens real quick but you still have to assist it. |

| Posted 2 months ago I ussually keep a cheap folder around for general field/defense use. If I happen to lose it, no problem, it's easily replaced. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago I carry a SOG Spec Elite in my pocket, a Cold Steel Spike around my neck and a Ka-Bar TDI in my belt. So I have the best of both worlds. But I perfer a folder because its easier to carry off duty than a fixed blade. "He whose ranks are united in purpose will be victorious"-Sun Tzu |

| Posted 2 months ago buck knife folder and a ka bar fixed blade. I like the best of both worlds. "its better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it". |

| Posted 2 months ago for carry purposes i prefer a folder but for hunting/skinning gutting i prefer a fixed drop point blade |

| Posted 2 months ago This is like asking do you prefer a rifle or a shotgun? Different tools for different jobs....a knife carried for general purpose/utility use is fine, but it shouldn't be your last ditch / emergency back up knife.... I used to carry a folding lockblade for various general use...and a couple of other edged weapons on my person as emergency back ups.... Surviving a violent gun grab will do that to ya... I'm not "really" a troll....I just love changing my avatar... because...

| Posted 2 months ago I CARRY A BOKER AUTO KNIFE. IVE CARRIED OTHER KNIVES, BUT WHEN I FOUND MY FIRST BOKER I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT. DONT LEAVE HOME WITHOUT IT! |

| Posted 2 months ago I carry a S&W SWAT folder"seat belt cutter" on duty as we are not to carry knives on duty, but also own some crockett, and kershaw fixed, and folders like anything else it depends on where your goin as to what you wear.LOL We run to the sound of the guns. |

| Posted 2 months ago as of now I carry a folding blade and just ordered the SW EXTREME OPS AUTO OPENING SERRATED BLADE and when I become a LEO i think I'll upgrade to a combination of folded and fixed |
|
| Posted 2 months ago I carry a SW Extreme Ops fixed blade boot knife and I just recieved my commander from EMERSON knives. My emerson is for utility/ fighting. If for some reason I loose grip of it or end up rolling with a BG it's good to know that my Smith and Wesson is there. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago On duty I carry a folder, Columbia River Knife & Tool "Crawford Kasper", flat black finish. The locking mechanism reassures that it won't close on your fingers. |

| Posted 2 months ago SPDCop says ...
I agree but in addition I carry a boker auto and a ZT/strider for heavier stuff. |
|
| Posted about 1 month ago For duty, I carry both. Folder on belt and clipped in pocket, fixed in my boot. Belt folder is primarily for utility, Benchmade 520 in pocket as my "let go of my gun NOW!" knife. Boot knives are more 'hold-out' weapons. Off-duty I carry a smaller folder. And of course, I alwasy carry a Victorinox pocket knife. ~.^ "I am, and always shall be, a Warrior." "I am not required to care.
