I'm preparing the little guy for the challenge.
I started taking it with me once in a while, in anticipation, and realized it would be even easier to carry on an office environment, if it was smaller.

So, it's now down to 12cm (about 3.5cm smaller). Just need to put a proper edge in it, and I'm good to go!
I'll post a pic, once it's finished!

My fixie is ready and waiting for the challenge to begin.
This will certainly be a challenge for me, as I'm not used to carrying a fixed blade, even more so having such little cutting length.
I intended to use it as a neck knife, and it will be my only fixie through the duration of the challenge.

 Now, the before and after.

Interesting challenge.  Surprised no one has considered a fixed blade NECK KNIFE configuration.

If in office setting, carry under that fancy Neck tie.

I unfortunately will not be able participate, I and Mrs. have a thawcation planned, departing on 2/13 and returning 8 or 9 days later out of the country.   

My neighbor is from NW Alaska, and uses a Ulu in her kitchen, and out on the deck for barbecues.  She is very good with it, suspecting she can even trim the wings off a black fly if she wanted.

Her husband is with NOAA, and they met while he was doing ice research and she was skinning seals for her dad and uncles.  I also suspect she is snaring the neighborhood rabbits, as there are not many tracks in the snow of late.

I would want her on my team if ever a survival event occurs.


 

I was considering it unit I remembered there is one small problem with the necker idea - I don't have a necker  :facepalm:
To be fair that is mostly due to my general distaste for most configurations I've seen out there

Tough one for me as I'm not a big collector, and normally only carry on my person outside work hours. But I can pick from one of these and keep it close at hand during the day, and carry after hours.

I think the Hubectus is too large - even in Africa?  ???

And the necks are too small and I've never really warmed to them as EDC.  :dunno:

Probably will select the Smith hand forged (3rd down on right) as it's a good general purpose and oozes character.

Agreed, will be a great activity for Feb  :iagree:

Maybe a suggestion, everyone should introduce some details about their knife of choice with their Day 1 pic, just some specs and background to the knife we're going to see in action?

I have thought about this and i'm just going to go for it, it is a badge i would like so..why not, it's now or never :tu:
Now a disclaimer...
In the UK it is illegal to carry a fixed blade in a public place or without good reason, i am fortunate as i have a legal good reason with my job, i do not work anywhere near public land or the public in general, i also live on private land miles away from the public, i can walk for miles and still be legal, transporting a fixed blade in your car to a place where you can legally use it is also legal, provided it is "not to hand", your vehicle here is classed as a public space so to avoid any doubt i will take one to work and leave it there and use it in the daytime, and at home i will change over..i will not be travelling with a fixed blade in either direction except once which will stay inside the law. What i carry in my own home and on my land and land i have permission and reason to carry is my business, again inside the law. When i go shopping i will be leaving the knives at home but that would only be a couple of hours max, if this is a problem i can easily put a blob of weld on a classic, if nothing else a cheaper fine and slightly less prison time  :D
Weekend days i will still be covered this month as again i will be on private land and will have good legal reason with the exception of some Sundays but again i will usually be at home so i am covered, i am confident i can do this challenge and stay inside the law but if it all goes tits-up will someone please send a cake to my cell with a file hidden inside  :cheers:

Fixies i plan to use are a Brusletto i made from a kit for work and various Moras at other times, the Brusletto handle has not been shaped to my liking so i will take this opportunity to shape it nicer over the course of the month, i never did get round to making a sheath for it but it does fit nicely in a Mora sheath, once i shape it as i like i will make the sheath to fit, i promise  8)

That's great, Borg!  :cheers:  I'm stoked you'll be joining us.

Again, the challenges aren't meant to encourage anyone to do anything unsafe or unlawful.

It sounds to me like you have a solid plan for this challenge.  :tu:  Carry when you can, use when you can, post a pic daily, have fun.  :tu:

I would, however, ask everyone to post any time they use a different knife or tool during the challenge. This will be helpful in illuminating the potential limitations of a fixie, especially in the modern environment.  :tu:
