Which knife do you edc???

[OddOne]

Currently a CMG Infinity Ultra (pre-Gerber) and two pocket screwdrivers in left shirt pocket, heavily modded LED Lenser V2 3w 2x123 in right pants pocket, and Gerber Legend 800 multitool on belt.

Tomorrow I add a SOG X-Ray Vision (SOG's answer to Emerson's CQC series, apparently, using the same grade of steel but for half the $) to the mix. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I EDC (except when at school) a CRKT Rollock (slick auto-like action, but without the whole illeagal business), but carry my Gerber Chameleon II when in more demanding situations.

For the past dozen or so years a Benchmade AFCK has been in my right front pocket. Every pair of jeans I own has knife profile outlined with in faded white lines from years of carry.

Want to feel "naked"? Leave home without your favorite knife. I'd sooner leave my shoes home.

SOG Pentagon Elite. IMO it's the smoothest knife I own. And it's there if I need it.

I edc a MOD STH685 manual which my son got for me, not too small, not too large, but just right.

I just got a Strider PT , sub 3" but all Strider . This bumps my other EDC's . I usually carry a Vic. Spirit ( of duty)or a Vic. Electrician (while working ). I also carry a Benchmade 960 or Chris Reeves Mnandi in my shirt pocket siding my pens .

I just made a drastic change in my Knife EDC by purchasing two new knives for me to edc.

1. Boker Infinity, Ceramic 3.38 in. Drop Point blade, plain edged. Zytel handle for general carry with a clip.

2. Boker Ceramic Lockback, With a Titanium handle for pocket carry.

I don't have em yet but I've been in love with ceramic blades for a while now.

Whatever you do, don't cut anything hard with those, nor try to do the slightest bit of prying!

Also, while you can sharpen them yourself using a diamond stone, you need to watch your angles. They require a blunter angle than steel knives do. 35 to 40 degrees.

Thanks for the gouge, I knew about the sharpening, I was planning on sending it back for pro sharpening. I didn't know about the prying but I usually don't use a knife to pry things.

thanks again

I would have sworn I already answered this "SAK Tinker in left front and SAK Classic in watch pocket".

But the Tinker has been retired in favor of a Schrade Lock-Back 50T after the SAK tried a couple of times to cut me by folding up at the wrong time!

The Classic comes out for the Scissors mostly (and any time I think there could be ANY problem with the bigger Schrade!).

I used to fool myself by carrying a Tactical one hand knife clipped in my right front, but I know I don't know enough to use a knife for defense. I try to use my brain (and keep the scowl on my face) to stay safe.

I carry a Kershaw Blackout straight blade. I love it, assit open and sharp as anything, pretty light too. That is in my right front pocket and on my hip in a sheath is my Leatherman Charge Ti

 

[Wolfen]

Benchmade 940, Benchmade Mini-griptillian D2 or BM Snody Resistor Auto. I have a couple of Buck 110's and SAK that I like for camping and such but I go with the BM for EDC.

 

[rscanady]

oh yea besides the Microtech LCC in front pocket, I keep a CRK sebenza in back pocket.

Spyderco Calypso Jr. Plain Edge -- it's nickname as a 'pocket scalpel' is well deserved.

 

[TOB9595]

for the past week or so a BM 635, Mini Skirmish.
Quite a lovely knife. I expect it to do ALL that I ask of it.

Does a Gerber MultiTool qualify as a knife? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/str.gif
