EDC knife

The Scallion is nice, but a little too small for my hands. The Leek or Shallot fits far better. If you got medium to small hands however the Scallion is a good choice for a light use EDC. My wife however likes the Chive, so out I go to buy her one.
 
Victorinox Executive rides under the wallet in my off-side front pocket. Various other slippies ride in the watch pocket or front right pocket or rear right hand pocket, or even on my belt. Various Victorinox, including the ancient Tinker, Mechanic, and Soldier make the ride some days. Case jackknives, and one Queen, make up most of the rest of them.

The Case Slimline Barehead Trapper is one of the most common. Today, it and the Soldier are on the right hand.
 
Normally, Emerson custom CQC-8, Leatherman Charge Ti and a fixed blade of some variety. All depends on what I'm doing and where I'm going. I often toss in a CRKT folder of some sorts as a loaner knife just in case too.
 
I carry a Klotzli folder with carbon fiber scales and a TI liner. Swiss made, it's an absolute work of art, and I'm extremely carefull never to put anything metal in the same pocket it's carried in.

It's light, thin, and with the combo blade,very usefull.
 
Same as last few threads - one of these:

1. Kershaw Leek: S30V / G10
2. Kershaw Avalanche: S30V / G10
3. Kershaw Spec Bump: S30V / G10
4. Kershaw Needs Work: 13C26 / Santoprene
5. Outdoor Edge Pocket Lite
 
Spyderco Dragonfly. EDC 24/7 for at least the past 9 years. Ladybug for 15 years on my key chain.
 
Bechmade Griptillian in my pocket, original Leatherman on my belt. Ive also been carrying a small Winchester lockback that I was given Christmas. Its nothing great, but its new and still sharp. LOL
 
Keen Kutter boy scout pattern knife I found in the Smoky Mountain Knife Works catalog. It's US-made, with a 1095 carbon blade and the other tools made of 440 stainless. Strange combo, but I like it. Yellow no-loss handle scales.
 
I currently carry a Benchmade 14250. It's one of the H&K knives, and the black clip really blends into the dark suit pants I usually wear.

I recently got a Benchmade 440 Opportunist to wear when I'm in casual clothes. It's a lot more slim and lighter, and the aluminum/wood handles with a chrome clip aren't as noticable when I'm in jeans or khakis.

Kershaw Leek (w/Speed Safe)

Unfortunately, it's not very durable. The metal is just too soft for a rugged EDC.

I love the knife, but I do need something w/harder steel so I won't have to carry around two knives.
 
I've been carrying a full size Benchmade Rukus that I got used for $100cdn.......couldn't say no at that price and it carry's real nice in my jeans pocket for such a big knife!

jahwarrior, looks like you also EDC some peanut butter cookies.

I carry a sodbuster jr, some kind of 2-blade victorinox that weighs like 25 grams, and an orion k2 caper (just posted review). The Vic is like a "why not" knife because it just disappears in the pocket, it's light, and I can even loan it.
 
I like the Vic SAKs. I carry one daily and find a use for it daily. I have been carrying a SOG Mini-Vulcan quite a bit. I like this blade a lot. Just picked up a SOG Access Card 2.0 with the sheepsfoot blade style. Interesting little knife and it would make a good discrete EDC knife; it is no fighter however. I occasionally will carry a Spyderco Endura in a back pocket in place of the Mini-Vulcan. I like that blade a lot as well. I'm going to try carrying one of CRKT's Ringed Razel in a front pocket in the near future. Too many choices and they each seem to meet a specific purpose very well.
