I want an Emerson...

Kind of vague

 

My pre 9/11 travel partner, couldn't take it on the plane after that so just left it in the safe

I like the CQC7 and Journeyman.

Lately I'm carrying a Bradley Alias.

 

 

Although, one of my all time favorite edc knives is the Kershaw Skyline.  I need to pick up another one.

I've had so many but my current the past two years (and all time favorites) are a ZT 0350 and Spyderco Caly

Update on my Chris Reeve Sebenza.

 

I initially complained that the opening was rough. I applied a little bit of the Chris Reeve fluorinated grease, opened and closed it a few hundred times, and it's getting into a nice groove.

 

Still not sure it was worth $350, but nice knife.

 

Incidentally, after a 5 year wait, I just got my Randall Model 5. Beautiful knife. Atrociously dull, but I can fix that. I placed an order for a Model 1, which I'll get in another 5 years.

Anyone have experience with Esee knives? I'm thinking the Izula may be my next purchase.

I am a huge fan of ESEE knives! Go on the ESEE forum and you'll learn a TON and not about their knives.

 

Look on usamadeblade.com for some good deals on them too (pretty sure tax and shipping is included in their price)

 

The Izula is a great knife. I've got one and you literally can shave with it after several weeks of use. ESEE's hold an edge unbelievably.

 

Here's a pic of a couple ESEEs I have:

Just got the new CRKT Foresight by Ken Onion.  Love it!

I personally don't have  a lot of experience with them but my friend loves his, he owns two of them.

I own 2 Izulas and an RC-4 (now called an ESEE-4). Great stuff. Tough as nails, SHARP out of the box and not crazy expensive either. If you're looking for a quality fixed blade... ESEE is a good choice.

I had picked-up a Ka-Bar Dozier folder online that I had intended to carry, however it had more up/down blade play than I liked, so I returned it for an exchange.  I'll see how that one carries.

 

 

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

My new favorite also....that is until I lose it.

My new EDC is a Benchmade 707 Sequel

My ZT-0777-M390 (preordered in April 2011)... arrived this week. (Really. I had almost given up.) I'm almost glad that ZT couldn't mass-produce the damascus and steel combo blade like the initial design, and had to replace it with the all M390 steel blade. If it was the original, then I'd never carry or use this knife, which would be a shame.

 

It's been my go-to since it's shown up. It's bigger than my usual carry (XM-18 3" or Strider PT-CC)... but it's lighter than both and rides nice in work slacks, even suit pants. (Attributed to the sculpted fully carbon fiber front and rear scales. If there is an inner steel/Ti/whatever liner, which I can't see, it's very minimal. It seems to be only/mostly the CF.)

 

While the blade has a thick spine... I feel the blade on my XM is much stronger do to the shape of the grind... but the 0777 is scalpel sharp... and the pseudo-warnclife grind is just right for most everyday tasks. The replaceable lock face on the lock bar is a nifty feature... but in all my years of owning and using framelocks... not a one has worn out so badly that it needed to be replaced so this, while nice, is kinda gimmicky.

 

Also, due to the construction of the scales... I would NOT consider this a hard use knife. (CF scales only to support the pivot? Any torsion at the pivot and it'll most likely give.) It's a much more "social" piece. It will never replace my XM as my "if I had only 1..." 

 

However... for those of us who fly/drive a desk everyday (that's me!) it works well. Isn't too flashy, not too scary, not heavy... looks great.

 

I'll try to get pics later.

The M16-14ZLEK.

Finally got my new blade... The SOG Flashback Black Tini Blade... Lifetime Warranty... They say it's the fastest assisted opening there is and I don't doubt it. Super sharp like a razor. Cut myself a couple times already doing a light drag test. I shaved all the hair off my hand... So I can confirm it's super sharp... ;)Suggested retail... $115.... Amazon for $68 for this variant.... http://www.sogknives.com/flashback-413.html

I've been carrying the smaller Kershaw OD-2 for the last month or so and really love it.  Don't even know that it's clipped to my pocket.  It's the 2nd one from the bottom.  In addition, you really can't beat the price either.  If it get lost or broken, just buy a new one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hinder xm-18 3.5

Kershaw leek several different ones

The Kershaw Hinder knock off

This is the current EDC knives I rotate.

I carry the surefire crank

Just picked this up for the Christmas season, seeing as I have a legitimate use for this knife and it conceals decently it might make it into the Edc rotation. It's s crkt m16 with tanto blade,veff serations and g10 scales, it was supposed to be a desert tan m21 spear point but they fffffed up the order do I got this and don't quite feel like going thru the exchange hassle. Anyway it's sharp as hell and the feels amazing in the hand. Here's a pic with my new edc light a foursevens quark 780lumen variant(which is amazing)

I just picked up a Benchmade 940 all black special edition. I'm loving it.

For a long long time I carried a Leatherman on a daily basis.  Always came in handy with the multitude of tools, because something always needed fixing, opening or building.  Nowadays in the office you're not allowed to fix anything, gotta call building services for that.......... but I still get some care packages and boxes to open in my 'cube so its nice to have a blade.  This collection only started about a month ago.  I'll post up a review in another thread when I have some more time.

My new favorite.

I've got a bunch of knives but here are my top 3 favorite folders: (the Spyderco is my main EDC)

I just got the kershaw 1670. The knife is bad ass

Ive added a Spyderco resiliance and Dendra Deer Hunter to my already huge pile of edc knives.  The Dendra is made by lion steel and is a beast, reminds me of a jacked up version of the ZT 0200.  It has D2 steel and its alittle heavy, but worth its weight in gold.  It seems indestructable.

i have a smith and wesson swat thats really beat up from work, and the trigger is broke on it....... I just bought the smith and wesson military and police knive .... kinda dont wanna use it tho =/ its too nice lol
