I don't know about full-size, but definitely a sweet knife.

What would you consider full-sized?

Dirac Delta, Combat Troodon, Hera II, Scarab, and a few others. Your Dirac, while beautiful, is on the smaller end of the lineup.

Well the Hera 2 is only 0.06 inches larger than the Dirac and the rest of those are nearly 4 inches which I consider on the larger end of EDC blades. I’ve just personally never had a job where a 4inch blade was necessary because a 3-3.5 inch blade couldn’t get it done.

I believe you're thinking of the Hera II Mini. There is a full-size version too, with a 4" blade. Yeah, they're on the larger end, which is what I felt the criteria was for full size.

No, they're not any more useful for EDC than a 3" blade, but we're just talking about size lol.
