Thoughts on the ALOX Cadet?

[cryptrick]

Your belt passes through it mate

Oh right, thanks, they sound pretty decent.

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

I used to edc my silver Farmer on my keys, and yeah it does give the finish a bit of a battering , those belt suspendertypethingies are brilliant though

[NutSAK]

To me, a 93mm is way to big to go on keys.  That's why God invented 58mm's. 

Well said.  Don't people realize how quickly you can damage the ignition in your car with all that weight on a keychain?

Here's how I EDC my Farmer:

[Benner]

Now I like that method of carry.

I don't bother to use it with the HAIII finish.

I am slightly biased though as i hate lanyards and anything hanging from my SAK's and MT's  .  And how could you allow keys to wear off that beautiful blue. 

So you just have your SAK on its own or in a Sack-up then? The thing is I've never really EDC'd a SAK, its always been a MT, so thats why its a bit tricky deciding how its gonna be carried

As to the paint wearing off, I've bought another Blue so I wouldn't cry if I had it scratched   But I know what you mean, keys are a nasty for destroying stuff in your pocket. My mobile phone looks as if its been to war its that mangled up by my keys, and I've only had it for a year

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

See I don't think I could get on with slip's as I hate thing's resting in my pockets

Having said that, the workmanship looks exceptional mate, anyone we know 

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Yep keys are evil

[Benner]

I just carry mine in my pockets mate, no Sack-up or anything.  But I do make sure it has it's own pocket to stop it getting too dinged up.

Here's how I EDC my Farmer:

Unless I am mistaken, the credif for the very attractive and functional slipsheath goes to Mike (Mike22766 on KnifeForums). I have 2 of these in black and love them. One holds a Farmer and another one a vintage red alox  Pioneer.

If I had a free pocket I might do that, but my pockets are full to the brim each day

Just remembered I have one of these...    http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd137/cryptrick/11057.jpg
I might try using that on my belt or something then as you're right, keys would destroy it wouldnt they

You need to invest in some Combats buddy. 

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Yeah use that mate, just put it in a different pocket to your keys, and you'll be sorted

You are correct, sir.  Mike really does a great job on those--they fit like a glove!  I love the way they "clam shell" around the open end and protect the entire knife.

I have another one that fits Cadets and Lumberjacks.

The Boss wouldn't let me wear em at work

Yeah that should do then, i agree.

Cool, another one on the true path then

Lol, I should stop taking advice off you, you cost me too much money

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Just be grateful your taking advice of me about Sak's, if you start getting into bike's I can cost you thousands

[nezza33]

Get it i just got mine today and i love it!!

[Gadget Guy]

Since I'm stuck here in Washington I needed a little knife for edc. I wanted something that wouldn't break the bank if I lost it. I went over to Target today and bought a Cadet. I already have a few at home, but this knife is just perfect for an edc backup knife. It also works great as a necker.

It is a bloody fine wee sak

[jock1]

I will have to get one I like the sheeple friendly quality

[Splat]

Nah it's because I have a very weird, near pathological hatred of thing resting in my pockets . litterally by entire edc is suspended either from my belt or belt loops, none of it loose in my pockets Yes I am a little weird

Actually, I'm with you, Mick. The only thing I carry in my pockets is money. I got a Safariland belt loop key carrier http://www.safariland.com/product.aspx?pid=169S it's long enough where my Cybertool is about 1/2" down into my front right pocket, but it doesn't rest on/in the bottom of the pocket. I feel no weight, yet the Cybertool's there when I need it. This is the first time I'm EDC'ing like this and I like it a lot more than hanging a big honking m/t on my belt.(what?! sacrilege!!  )

At least we can keep each other company in the asylum then

[Sea Monster]

But...it only has the manicure tool...


Are you all mad?

I love my manicure tools as much as the next barely presentable savage, but how in any sane man's mind is it a preferable tool to the mighty reamer?

Sure, it's a pretty enough knife, but when was the last time someone shouted

"Hey, We needs a poker over here!" (Deep, Baritone voice that makes the ground rumble)

"No Worries, I have a manicure tool!" (Benner)

Ya can't have it all mate

[AndyTiedye]

Nice that they come in so many colors.
A bit skinny to use.
Great mod fodder!

[Sea Monster]

Ya can't have it all mate

I will fight tooth & (unfiled) nail against your damned Cadets!




Until I can afford one of my own
