Of the two above said knives, which would you prefer for an edc? I'm having a waaaay harder time than I imagined trying to purchase a fiddleback knife! I have been looking for an edc blade between 6 1/2 - 7 1/4 inches (non chunky) and these are the two that I have narrowed it down to.
I like the idea of having a tad more blade on the hiking buddy but on the flip side, like the idea of having a tad more compact carry knife of the Esquire. Both models have awesome scales and I would be more than happy with either, I just can't pull the dang trigger yet! Lol.
If the Esquire was the size of he Hiking Buddy, I would probably go for it. I am in love with the Esquires handle shape! As for the hiking buddy, it is
The perfect size and profile for me. I can argue both sides all day long, but for the life of me, I can't make a decision!
I think it may also be a price thing. These knives cost a pretty penny for me and I plan on having whichever blade I pick until I can pass it down to one of my bambino's (aka kid's). It will be one of my sons, or even my daughters. If she digs the outdoors and knives like me, then little mama will get it.
Anyone with one or both of these knives that can chime in, I would be very thankful. The good and bads, any info would be awesone.
