and, a word about carry...
personally, I do not see this type of knife as any manner of "pocket knife"...a ball and chain swinging in the breeze, to me, or pocket full of scrap metal on which to sit, and I have worked too hard in my life to voluntarily now sit on uneven hard metal objects.
To me, it is an IWB proposition, protected from snags, clips hung and bent, knives yanked out of pocket, clothing torn. Safe and snug IWB and weight far better supported, and nearly forgotten unless needed.
