What's your EDC, Go-To, or favorite knife/knives?

[PlayboyJoeShmoe]

Grandpaws knives give me great connection to what in my mind was a GREAT man!

Seems no person these days has any feelings like that.

I believe I will carry the same two tomorrow at least!

Great thread here !

:thumbsup:


I've carried a Gerber LST (2-5/8 inch blade) in my back pocket every single day for DECADES !

Very thin and lightweight -- never even know i'm carrying it, until i NEED it.



- and -


Last month, on a whim , i purchased a couple Victorinox Swiss Army Knives:


- a Tinker (91 mm), with translucent blue scales


- a Farmer, in silver Alox


Both are wonderful little gems, and incredibly handy & useful. :twothumbs

Yet small enough for me to carry in my Jeans side pocket, with little effort.

Therefore, i ALSO carry one or the other of These.


BTW -- can certainly see these SAK's becoming ADDICTIVE !

This has been riding in my RFP for a while (was Grandpaws) Camillus 72:

This has been in LFP for some time as this pattern is QUITE useful! Imperial Scout:

Just added an XM to my pocket rotation!

I'm reasonably certain that if I could I would carry an XM18 myself.

Good thing I really like my two SOGs!

For a main folder i usually rotate between one of these:

How do you like that emerson commander? Is it worth the money?

 

[PlayboyJoeShmoe]

These were gifted to me by an AAPK member.
In my left pocket this EAGLE over PHILA 4 inch Jack

In my right pocket this worn but solid Camillus TL29

Either one of these right now...but the Triage seems to end up in my pocket more often.

Main knife is my Victorinox Spartan with black handles that have a white border around them.

Let's see . . . I've used the main and small blades for opening up cardboard boxes at my externship, cutting string, and tape, etc.

Used the bottle-opener on my favorite old fashioned Stewart's fountain drinks. Have used both screwdriver ends on my bottle and can openers to fix a latch inside a Wal-Mart restroom stall. Will likely use the awl soon to punch a new hole in a recently purchased leather belt. (I lost weight, and need to make the hole further away from the end of the belt's tongue.)

All in all, very handy. But I recently realized I need a SAK with scissors. I'll track down a Victorinox Compact soon. (Thinnest Vic model with full-sized scissors. I really don't want to EDC a model thicker than my 2-layer Spartan.)

Xm-18 or small,well worn,Sebenza. Occasionally,when going for a picnic in the park with the wife and manchild, I tote along a rare SAK "Swiss Cheese" .

I haven't been carrying a one hand opener much lately.

But I modded this CRKT Mirage to tip up. And until I can score a Sanrenmu 702 this will get some pocket time:

What type of features does that SAK have?

 

[PlayboyJoeShmoe]

Today I made the mod on the Mirage look better and be more secure.

Had this VERY sharp little 'nut in my watch pocket:

Got this little bugger from China recently. A little work with a ceramic stick and it shreds paper!

My favorite knife to go to is a Spyderco Delica. I have been using mine for about 5 years now, and it has never let me down. Easy to sharpen, and holds an edge well.

I've got a few knives and i try to give 'em all a bit of EDC. But one knife I carry every day is a Kershaw Leek.

TiZDP, Random S30V, Damascus with Black Tungsten DLC handle, Damascus with plain handle, Composite D2, G10/S30V are among my favorites but I"ve got a few less high end models too. I love that knife!
