Yup, I'm doing the 16 fasting, 8 eating. I've been doing it since March and so far good. I've already hit the goal weight, but I want to test yr long IF to see the data.

I have that same phone case.

Kershaw Leek for my daily carry these last two or three years. Been through four different polymer-framed pocket 380s in the past. I dislike the weight. I think I may be done, although I'll maintain my permit obviously. Sort of intrigued by NAA's little Ranger II.

I also carry Schrade Pocket knife as a spare, cuz once a while coworker or supervisor come to help and 90% of the time they don’t have anything to open/break the boxes & other stuff, so I let them use Leek & I use Schrade.

How is the clip on the Leek? I have another Kershaw (can't remember the name atm) but the clip is short and doesn't unclip very well plus has flipped out of my pocket a few times because of it. Was looking at the Leek for a minute as a replacement.

Oh it's fantastic. Easily slips in and out of my 5th jeans pocket. I've been carrying it every single day for two or three years. It gets used daily at work. I occasionally put a few drops of oil in the pivot and blow it out with air. Still opens and closes easily. I love that these knives are user-serviceable. I've disassembled an old Kershaw Chive in the past, beadblasted, oiled and reassembled. Works like new. Every three or four months I hone the edge on a length of 1" ceramic pipe. Still sharp enough to catch on my thumbnail. At first glance they seem rather expensive, but I would buy it again in a heartbeat. MidwayUSA usually has the Leek for around $40.

Yeah clip is short & I prefer deep pocket clip, but haven’t had any issue for few yrs. The Leek I have is spring assisted, but not once it flipped out in my pocket. Only complain I have is, just fraction heavy. Wish lil bit lighter.

This is the first time I've ever seen an "EDC" discussion not primarily in terms of self defense. There's a first time for everything, I guess.

Hmm, may have to go into a store and look in person (or buy it on Amazon with Prime for returns lol). Or may have to try a different brand since Kershaw seems to favor a short clip.

When I say flipped out I didn't mean the blade, but the whole knife comes out of my pocket while still clipped. Usually when I pull something else out of the same pocket and it is just kind of annoying.

Aftermarket deep pocket carry clip is your answer!

You can probably find one cheaper on ebay

Well, most of us here "off-topic" know the forum rules, so we try to keep thing clean.

Ah~ gotcha. Yeah, by any means, it's not small. So maybe it'll get caught on your hand while grabbing something out of the pocket. If you want something small & CA legal, you can look into like Kershaw Launch 4. Or if you wanna go very small/thin how bout CRKT Ed Halligan knife. THEY'RE THIN! They're 0.22" vs Leek is 0.38".
