Your knife you carry everyday...

I always carry a Vic Classic on my keyring.

Right now, I'm carrying a Benchmade Pika clipped to my pocket. Sometimes I'll carry one of my other knives.

I usually will keep a multi-tool in my jacket pocket or in the mag pocket if I'm wearing 511 pants or shorts. That used to be a PST, but know it is a Sog Powerlock.

I really like carrying SAKs. Usually a Vic Spartan or Wenger Standard Issue.

Traditional folders are also nice.
 
One of these:

Top to bottom:

S&M Deluxe English Jack
Queen Canoe (1095)
Benchmade Automite
Jeff Cover
Hiroaki Ohta single-blade hunter
Rick Nowland Wharncliff Copperhead
Rick Nowland Sowbelly

Most of the time at work, it is the Ohta, but the Nowlands get some quality time too. If I'm clunking around, it is usually the Benchmade or the S&M.

S&W HRT boot knife in the boot (duh) since I wear combat boots to work. Coolest $20 (I think) I've ever spent - this thing is sharp and strong. Get one if you can!

Mini survival tool w/knife, mirror, lense, scissors, stone, file, screwdriver, canopener, and bottlecap opener from the Nature Store in the malls, I believe. An unforgettable gift from a forgettable girlfriend.

Benchmade auto sometimes in uniform at work, sometimes out of work. Usually a S&W HRT folder in civvies or a Buck, can't remember the model.
 
darn you sm- now you've made me want a Case

How are you fixed on 28 gauge Shotguns? :D

I grew up with Chrome Vanadium blades on Case knives.
Oh there were other brands, like Cammilus, Old Timer, and even some custom carbon steel knives , still, Case is just part of my growing up.

My role in life includes:

-"Blame Steve" - so get a Case CV and blame me.
-giving hso fits about Pocket Knives/ Slip-joints,
-keeping it simple, real, practical, and being a minimalist.


hso's reply ought to be good...;)

How much simpler than 3 slabs of shaped metal and 3 bolts and 3 nuts can you get in a folder. :evil:

Old Hickory Paring knife is pretty simple.
1095 carbon steel, wood, rivet...

Word is [tm] these things are not expensive, pretty sure they will not fold on one's fingers....something that "seems" to tickle the daylights out of Health & Safety Officers...

My preference is easily sharpened plain and relatively straight edges

Exactly the preference I've settled in on. And, I like it light, with a good thin blade (see "easily sharpened"). So, I've taken to carrying this Leek:

3 oz., flat pocket profile, 3" Sandvick 13c26 blade.

If I want something sturdier and am willing to carry a bit more to get it, a fullsize Griptillian, also plain-edge.

Sunday carry, a Buck 279. For everyday pocket duty, a Taiwan made, aluminum bodied, sharpen everyday who cares knife. The thing has been with me for 16 years and still does the job.

Buck Bantam

CIMG1346.jpg

CIMG1347.jpg

Less than $20, 420HC blade, poly handle, locking back, comes in multiple sizes.

The one above was just recently retired for the largest model Buck offers. he he. Looks the same, but the blade is about .5" longer and larger handle fits my hand better.

The one thing that I absolutely love about these knives? The lock back. I HATE liner locks.
 
I carry a Vi SAK Champ in a holster on my belt with a small miniMag AAA lite. In my pocket sometimes, I'll carry a Spyderco that I picked up at WalMArt a few months ago. Other times, I carry either an Old Timer 3 blade or the equivalent Uncle Henry. I always have the SAK with me no matter where I go. It'll do any job I need it to, no questions asked.
