Perhaps the flashlight affliction is contagious to other devices. Just started getting interested in blades; been carrying a Spyderco Ladybug 3 or Dragonfly 2 at work - my office setting doesn't warrant the weight (or raised eyebrows) of anything larger. Just received a Benchmade RSK mk1 to carry on the weekends (assuming I can tighten it up to eliminate horizontal blade play).
My edc is a kershaw leek partially serrated blade with matte stainless finish. Sometimes I go with the larger kershaw with the speedsafe also partially serrated but in black nitride...I don't recall the model name.
Thats a tuff call, but my main carry knives are ZT0350, Blur, and Ram.....Kershaw has me mesmerized thus far...hopefully the echelon will hit the shelves soon.
Kershaw is by far my favorite knife maker, followed by benchmade. For a more classic style pocket knife the only one I will ever carry is the original (pre-Chinese) Old Timer by the former NY based Schrade
I always seem to have clipped in my right front pocket one of three EXCELLENT for the price Sanrenmu knives.
A 605, 710 (right now) or 763
And I don't always carry a back pocket knife, but the cheap Chinese Boker that I don't think you can buy anywhere but china is a FINE liner lock flipper knife that is WICKED sharp.
Spyderco Tenacious (it's the only good knife I own). I plan on getting the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 when I have enough money to spend on a knife and there aren't any lights on the list. I like that compression lock.
