    I'm looking for a 3 inch blade sheath knife for front pocket carry. Prefer something with good steel. Work rules state must be single edge 3 inch blade or smaller
    Thanks

    Not far from the tree
    I don't think i could carry a 3" blade sheath knife in a front pocket. Sounds uncomfortable.

    Knives of Alaska Cub would fill the bill but the handle is a bit thick for pocket carry, I would think.
    You may have very roomy pockets though.

    I've been carrying the Benchmade Hidden Canyon. Wearing as a neck knife and working out, so far so good. I had hopes for the horizontal belt sheath, but it didn't work for me.

    That Bechmade is kinda slick

    A Spyderco Swick release would be a good one too

    Battle Horse makes some nice knives too, some small and under $100

    What is wrong with the IzulaII?
    It does not have a 3 inch blade that the OP wants :dunno:

    I have an ESEE-3 and there’s no way I could carry it in my pocket without the handle sticking out. Have you looked into putting softloop on the sheath and carry a 3 inch blade inside the waste band? I carry an ESEE-4 that way. The look on people’s face when I pull it out from under my shirt is priceless :D

    I think a good way to go with this is to go to one (or more) of the bigger online knife retail sites and use their search function. Enter blade length, price point, etc. That will help both find ideas as well as narrow the final choices.
