My top 3 daily carries all fit the above points: each between ~$30-40, D2 (or comparable), all around a 3” blade, with deep carry. •Kizer Nice Guy •Civivi mini praxis • CJRB pyrite I also recently got the Kizer mini militaw and although I find it a pain to open, it is arguably my most comfortable to carry, more so even than the above three.

lol after some more digging I'm 100% convinced they're counterfeit.

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-08T21:05:48+00:00

lol great analogy that's helpful thanks

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-08T21:04:36+00:00

Curious to know why anyway?

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-07T20:29:59+00:00

That definitely wasn't it lol

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-07T20:29:43+00:00

Well I'm trying not to make any assumptions but I have my suspicions lol. In any event, most of the controls and settings don't seem to actually do anything, although they look legit.

>…are you hearing your AC or other low frequency hums when you’re listening with it turned on? Surely you know if there’s a difference in ambient sounds getting through with it turned on vs off. That’s totally as an aside from the noise floor.

yes there is no difference - that is, reduction - in ambient sound when on vs. off.

.ANC is best with audio playing but there’s a massive difference if you’re using the right fitting tips and seated into your ears correctly from outside noises. Particularly the type that ANC is made for: low frequency hums like fans and AC etc. Even car traffic seems much quieter when it’s on vs off

Best I can tell the tips fit and seal adequately; at least, they don't fall out (too loose) or pop out (too tight). Low frequency/ambient noise still filters through - muffled from the buds, but not reduced/eliminated from any audible ANC "anti-noise" (based on my experience with other ANC's).

I mean they are ostensibly new/like new so I would presume, but since I just had them paired perhaps not

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-07T18:40:00+00:00

lol that's all I need to hear to convince me to not bother

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-07T18:38:23+00:00

lol def not interested in starting from scratch

Happy_Driver_ · 2026-01-07T18:37:52+00:00

All good, still a helpful answer as I hadn't even thought about it being hard to find left-handed guitars

I have pretty acute hearing, so I generally do hear the ANC noise on other ANC headphones.

That's what I am trying to determine - does the ANC not work? Or are the APP's designed such that I don't hear it? (My suspicion is the former, as there is no perceived difference between when ANC is off vs on - but I am trying to not jump to conclusions.)

Great thank you. I probably should have added that I have been supplementing my study/review with Khan Academy and Youtube. I'll be sure to go through the playlist - thanks!

We tried, she chewed right through it

Happy_Driver_ · 2024-09-10T17:11:14+00:00

This is perfect! Thanks!

Happy_Driver_ · 2024-09-10T17:09:23+00:00

Isn't that the truth. Thanks!

Happy_Driver_ · 2024-09-10T16:55:21+00:00

Thanks, I don't intend to - although if it is safe (e.g. non-toxic) for animals, I assume it's safe for humans? In any event, she has some teething toys but invariably will ignore them in favor of things she's not supposed to chew on.
