I've designed a folding knife intended as a light/medium use every day carry. I focused a lot on the blade/handle ratio.
It's currently sitting at 3.6" blade length with an 8" overall length.
I aimed for 8" as it seems like 8" is the limit of what most people prefer as an EDC.
I can size it down to a 3.4" blade at 7.55" overall, but any smaller than that, it would be too slim for comfortable ergos so the width would need to be increased, which would alter the silhouette of knife that I want to maintain.
I'm mainly looking for answers on the overall length you prefer to carry, as the same size blades can have very different overall lengths.
