I guess the key to a good pocket fixed blade is a good blade cover that wont fall off in your pocket.

That's true! You have that little thing. Glad it's working out for you Bob.

I have one of Alexander's pocket carry fixed blades and I really enjoy it. I still carry a slip joint or friction folder also but that little pocket carry does most everything as well or better. I like the strength it has as a lot of friction folders tend to loosen up with tough use, I don't have to worry about it folding up and giving me a cut that I have experienced with the slip joints and frictions. Mine has proven itself with small game, rope, fruits, and other everyday tasks. I really don't run into many issues here  with the larger belt carrys but times are a changin'. Also, that little blade is as much at home in the city as in the country! Less footprint in my pocket than my other pocket carries!

Nice knife and sheath Alexander.  A high ride belt sheath would work as well for jeans and tee shirt with the tail out.  Keep up the good work.

The great thing about <3 " blades is that they carry so unobtrusively. I spent the last 9 months at the main office of a big Dutch bank. Carried my Little Undertaker exclusively.

Because of it's size it goes in a sheath in the pocket. None the wiser for everyone else and even when I did take it out to cut an apple or peel an orange no one would blink twice.

Recently made (and sold) a 2.5" blade as well. This one

It's perfect for pocket carry. I've started liking small fixed blades over folders recently and I don't think it'll change any time soon.

Alexander,

A 3 inch carry seems like a great idea for a fixed blade.  Seems to me that like Graeme, a lot og folks live in an area where a larger knife strapped on the belt and visible is an issue

For me, a small fixed blade is the best carry....but as I am in a big city, I tend to be very careful when I use any knife, especially a fixed blade.  But 3 inches or less tends to be where I stay.  I'd love to strap on a big ole 6 inch blade though.

Clint, the loop goes all the way around. So it looks the exact same as this does.

This is only a 3" blade. And there's no chance of it slipping.

I love smaller fixed blades. But they don't seem to sell as well as bigger blades.

Nice pictures Alexander.  The knife was set up nice in the photo.  A back side of the belt sheath would have been helpful to complete the reader's concept of how it works.

Smaller fix blade knives, 2.5" are becoming popular so you might plan on making a few of those.  Design a finger hold, small half depression is good, towards the front of the handle to give a good hold and lessen the chance of slipping onto the blade when slippery work is at hand.
