Technically not in my pocket, but it's what I carry while outside in the yard.
What is this ?
Spyderco Manix2 sprint run in CPM CRUWEAR. Just came in yesterday. Highly impressed by the fit and finish.
Brand new, mammoth ivory trapper, about 17cm open, blade has a nice drawn swedge, John Lloyd
Know of anything with a blade like this? One of the blades on my 8OT is similar, and I've been using it a lot, but it would be better to have a locking or fixed blade. Looking for something that holds an edge better and hopefully a little prettier.
I dig it!
The handle seems much lighter colored than other pics I've seen.
I've never seen a locking folder with a blade like that. There are warncliffs out there but never seen one with that steep of a drop to the point.
Maybe a folding electricians knife might be the closest thing. I think they have some in liner lock variant.

Michael Morris does a sweet friction folder with a blade like that. I don't see a need for a fixed or locking blade with this blade shape. You shouldn't be pushing it in any direction that would cause it to close.
