The compromise you make when choosing an EDC knife is often between size and utility — with a smaller knife, you can't always get heavier-duty tasks done as much as you would with a larger blade. Boker's Nano knife has shown that size doesn't always matter. This David Curtiss-designed piece may only have a blade length of 1 7/8”, but thanks to its rugged, corrosion-resistant 440c stainless steel and full-length belly, it performs well across all cutting tasks. A fiber-reinforced nylon handle offers a textured grip while keeping things light, while a stainless steel framelock on the other side keeps the blade in check. As this is an EDC knife, the two-way clip lets you carry it as you please. Don't let its size fool you — pick up the Nano at the link below to add this compact workhorse to your carry.
