Pocket EDC Fixed Blades | From BUDGET to PREMIUM!
Published: 3 hours ago
Pocket EDC fixed blades come in just about every price range — from affordable BUDGET options all the way up to PREMIUM knives with high-end materials and craftsmanship.
Today we're digging into my collection of pocket-sized EDC fixed blades and talking about what makes these compact knives such a great option for everyday carry.
This isn't a Top 10, a ranking, or a “best of” list. I've got an entire pile of pocket fixed blades at different price points, with different designs, materials, sheaths, and carry options. Some are extremely affordable, while others definitely fall into the premium category.
The question is: how much do you really need to spend to get a great pocket EDC fixed blade?
Let me know in the comments what pocket fixed blade you carry and whether you prefer BUDGET, MID-RANGE, or PREMIUM!
