I love this knife! I know the size of knife preference can vary from person to person, what I prefer to carry are smaller knives; I don’t have much need for just about anything over a 3.5” blade. The October Mini fits well in the pocket, has a versatile blade shape for many needs, and the usual excellent build quality from Kizer. 90% of my collection are Kizer knives, I have never had an issue with quality with Kizer and the October Mini is no different.
