No 22 Magnum for me. I like single blade or opposing blades on small knives. The thinner the better. ::tu::

Royal suggested this little (2¾" closed including carabineer) red Kershaw Two-Can belongs here.

Been carrying this 3" Case 6225 1/2 in my watch pocket this week (really to try out watch pocket carry) - fits just fine. OH

Great find, k7k! ::tu:: I sometimes carry a similar Ka-bar. They may be on the lighter side, but I've found them to be very durable. ::nod::

I too have been trying watch pocket carry, only with a Camillus 72. The jury is still out.

Let me know how that works out for you.

Jerry, so far the watch pocket carry comfort is fine, but it is inconvenient for me to use the knife; I normally wear Wrangler Pro Rodeo jeans and that is what I have worn for the last three days. Tomorrow I am going to switch to a pair of Carhartt jeans - they have a lower, more normal, positioning of the watch pocket (similar to the picture Dogg has posted) than the Pro Rodeo jean where the opening is under the belt. I am hoping that will improve my opinion of watch pocket carry. OH

I've worn Levis since they were $2.98 a pair, except for a pair of this and a pair of that here and there. Probably 95% or more Levis, so I don't have to worry where the watch pocket is. The only problem I've had so far is remembering my knife is not in my RFP. :lol:

I used to carry this peanut quite a bit, but not so much recently. I still love the Picasso marble handles though. ::nod::

A 3" penknife sure fits better in the Carhartt style watch pocket than the Wrangler Pro Rodeo watch pocket - not a bad method of carry. OH

I have a number of 3", or less knives that I enjoy carrying and using.
My latest find will travel in my pocket tomorrow, along with at least one other (larger) liner-lock knife.

I guess, all told, I have seven sub-3s. Oh, wait... I just realized I missed one (or, more). :shock:

These are the ones that actually make the EDC rotation.
Four of the seven, are Case, in chronological age order.

Blessed Easter, everyone!
