I know lots of guys like the mini-Hardtail, but does anybody EDC one? Any body got any feedback about what it's like to carry one day in and day out?

Thanks.

I carry my Mini-Hardtail when it comes up in my rotation. I haven't really carried it long term though. For the size that the Mini-Hardtail is, it quite light. The G10 does give the knife a little texture to keep it clipped in my pocket.

Thanks guys. I might pick one up. But it won't be at my local H-D dealer that's for sure. They want full msrp. Eeker

They are pricey Conrad. I got my HD 13150S from a dealer that no longer carries them. While I believe many find the Hardtail series appealling, I don't believe the overall HD line has been as much of a success as say the HK line from BM.

I have found the mini at a couple of on-line dealers for $130-ish. That's not too bad. Besides, I'm a sucker for the H-D stuff. Cool

I don't know if you already purchased your own, but I am planning to carry my 13150S this week when I'm at work.

Yesterday was the first work day with it and it performed flawlessly breaking down boxes. Given, I have touched up the edge on my Sharpmaker prior to the workday, but it cut through a ton of tape and was still good to go after all of it. The action is still as smooth as ever.

The only time that I noticed it was when I was driving in my car. I keep it clipped in my front right pocket. It did rub a little against my seatbelt fastner and I think that might be because it sits a little higher than most of my BMs. However, it didn't bother me and there were no marks on my bolster from it.
