I rotate my blades but just picked up the excellent Kershaw Chill, thin ,light,elegant,sharp and inexpensive. A gentleman's knife and not  really suitable to those tough jobs but more than able to withstand everyday light duty. I've been carrying it for a week now and forget it's even clipped in my pocket.

Just picked this little guy up at work.

 

$19.99 isn't a bad price for a simple knife. Even comes with a kydex sheath and paracord.

 

Today's carry

drool.... what is that?? very sleek looking.

A Swiss Army knife - a tinker or cadet-type for normal everyday carry - a classic or a bantam for more formal occasions.

 

Always a Victorinox, and always in the right front pocket (with my comb).

 

 

EDIT - forgot to mention - a Buck when out deer hunting...usually a bucklite folder with a knife/flashlight combo sheath - I don't know if they still make that combination, but it's been awfully useful...

Today's carry

Very nice

I have a N.I.C.A. Tanto, wouldn't dream of using it everyday, only "special occasion" carry

My above post was a Chris reeve sebenza 21.

Today's carry strider slcc( the black fixed blade) & strider SMF.

I just picked-up a Spyderco Delica 4 FFG in blue.  I plan to EDC that.  Seems like a nice knife so far.

I love the look of that, but I'm not that serious about my knives to justify that.

currently carrying a crkt m16, wich replaced my long standing edc of husky utility folders

I really think its one of the best choices for edc. I've dropped that knife 3 times & used it hard but you can't tell.

During work(slacks) I carry a small sebenza or a Benchmade Aphid. Weekends it usually a large sebenza.

My EDC's get beat to hell, wouldn't want to subject this to the abuse I can dish out

 

I've been carrying a Kershaw Chill

Extremely light, surprisingly sharp and handles well for a budget knife.

The 25$ price point is nice, since I tend to destroy knives pretty quickly

 

sorry for the crappy picture but this is what i usually carry

spyderco tenacious, the blade is stone washed (and pretty beat up at the moment)

Been carrying a Spyderco Dragonfly-2 the last couple of days. Nice and compact, but still very functional.

I just started EDC'ing a small Chris Reeve Sebenza. I like the look and workmanship, but I have to admit, the opening is nowhere near as smooth as my prior EDC, a Benchmade Griptilian, which costs less than 1/4 the sebenza.

Usually I rotate between: XM-18 (3"), Strider PT-CC, Bark River PSK or a GITD Spyderco Manix 2. (And I always have an Atwood MSoPT in my wallet.)

 

Sometimes on the weekend I'll carry a ZT-0566 or a Boker Pry-Mini, especially if doing yard work or something... but they're generally too big for my weekday work-wear.

How the eff did you get a 0566? Everywhere I look says its still not available!

Kershaw Blur. Love it.

... and if for some reason you lose your Griptillion while EDCing it, you won't feel as bad as if it was the Sebenza.  I tried the Sebenza once and sold it.  I didn't feel the value was there when comparing product vs. cost.

I fat fingered/had a brain fart... I meant the 0560. Not the spring assist. (To be fair... I'm not sure the 560 needs spring assist. It's pretty smooth.)

 

I waited for that one too though. I preordered the 0560 in June 2011 and waited something on the order of 4 months for it. (And I'm STILL waiting on my ZT0777 that I preordered on the same day. Ha! Kershaw/ZT better get cracking on shipping the knife of the year 2011!!! Hahahahaha!)

 

I LOVE the 0560... it's so similar to the 3.5" XM-18 that I had before I sold it to get the 3" XM. It's a great knife without the price point or hassle of finding an actual XM-18.

 

FYI... knifecenter has the 0566 for $144 pre-order which is very good. (The 0560 is still going for $250-ish.)

After loosing too many fancy knives, I started buying the SOG Micron II at 2 for $20.00.

 

It is certainly not a defensive or survival knife, but it is sharp, very thin & there are no tears when it is lost. 

I carry a well broken in Spyderco Delica. I purchased it over 13 years ago and have carried it practically everyday since.

Today's carry

How did you get the blade so dark? Both of mine are stone washed and much lighter. Yours looks great

Kershaw Leek with G-10 handle.

 

Must just be the lighting, it looks like every other 21. That NICA is killer! My new fav below

Got it. Thanks. I'm looking for an Umnum or Sbenza 25 now.

I want an Emerson...
