Title: Boot Knife.....looking for suggestions
Post by: jrebel on March 17, 2019, 05:59:42 PM: OK all you knife people.....I'm researching a good boot knife. What It needs; 1. be comfortable 2. be top quality 3. be concealale 4. be versatile.

What do you all think?? If you have pics of what to show off, that would be great.

Thanks

Pretty sure Patrick Swayze broke a guys leg in road house when he tried to use a knife like that. With that said....it's a hard no on that style.

As I recall, my Benchmade Osborne ran afoul of local length limits.
