[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 29065, member: 18"] Yes, I always carry one or both of the Shivworks knives in addition to my gun and spray. In fact when I wear a fanny pack, a rarity but I do wear one to the gym, the Clinch Pick becomes the primary weapon. The TDI knife you listed is the same one. If you have the means, I'd suggest the Shivworks knives but the TDI Ka-Bar is a real bargain if you're short on cash. It truly is in its element on a duty belt, but its a decent choice for concealed carry as well. I'd go with the CRKT though if I needed an inexpensive fixed-blade fighter. If you travel, the TDI is legal in most places where the CRKT may not be in some jurisdictions. In terms of "straighter", I prefer them over scimitar-type blades but the kerambit is curved and it thrusts and rips extremely well. I just don't use a kerambit to its full potential because I'm not as well trained with it. Unless you plan to get some direct training with the kerambit, I'd stick to a straight blade. Since double-edged knives are illegal to carry in Oklahoma, I prefer a knife with the edge in (reverse of standard) like the Shivworks knives as opposed to the traditional design of knives. If double-edges were legal, I'd use one and I have several positioned in the house where they are legal. :wink2: Michael Brown [/QUOTE]
