OK, somewhere around here there is a thread for tiny pocketknives. This is a thread for those unsung
little fellers, your EDC's that are under three inches closed. Watch pocket, coin pocket, nail-cleaners....
you get the idea.
Here is my current rotation. Hard to pick a favorite.....
Schrade 72OT
Camillus 76
Case 3220
Colonial shell

Here ya go Royal.these are my watch pocket Ryder's all do there jobs well but for my Carrhartts watch pocket I prefer my Schrade 108ot and my Western whittler.
Here is one I used to carry for awhile on a belt sheath;too big to fit into a pocket.Note the thickness of the laminated wood scales.Really comfortable knife to use surprisingly.
dogg those are all right up my alley, but the Buck really stands out
k7k, I dated a couple girls like that knife.... half as wide as tall.....
Sorry, could not resist. Really sweet blade

I carried a 108OT (and the same knife in an Uncle Henry) everyday from sometime in the fall of 1983 until I lost the last one (the Old Timer) on a jobsite in the spring of 2005. My search for a replacement eventually led me into the knife collectors world; I found a couple of USA made 108OT to replace my originals, but I finally decided to go a little bigger, preferring a 3-3/8" to 3-1/2" knife for EDC nowadays. This one stays in my car and finds it's way into my pocket when I forget to slip a knife in my pocket prior to leaving for the day. OH

Nice carries everybody
Seems the 108ot is a favorite all around. I think I have one, somewhere......

There's some fine looking knives here for sure. But I just can't do it. I've tried to like the little fellers, but I just can't. I struggle to use a 3 1/2 inch knife. I can appreciate them but 3 7/8 is where it starts to get good, 4 inch is real nice, and 4 1/4 is plumb holy.
I do like looking at them little fellers though!

Colonel, here's some to gaze upon.
There sure are some nice knives shown so far.
For me, I like smaller knives from time to time. When I saw sub 3" knives I thought "Oh Boy, I gots a ton of em". Well, it aint' true.
Sub 3" means no three inch knives, which drastically reduced my inventory. It's actually an interesting cut off point.
So ....... I got these ten.

I started this thread to showcase small, everyday carry knives, but we're
running with it now I'll have to root around my pile to see what else
I have under 3 inches. ....

Found this little gem tucked into a corner of a display case at an antique shop I don't visit often.Old large letter KA-BAR logo;jigged black comp scales and pretty full blades;minimum of rust which was easily removed.Eight bucks.
Nice k7k. Looks real simular to my Colonial shell. Strikes a chord
