what's your EDC carry knife

[moose76]

I carry a Spyderco Caly 3.5 G-10. Sits nice a low in the pocket.

I've got a caly in zdp89. Too expensive for me to comfortably carry it. Insanely sharp knife.

Gerber 06 Fast Tanto

What I disliked was the Safety. The switch always disengaged the safety when I didn't want it to (in my pocket) and was a PITA to operate and stuck when I wanted it to open. Other than that it was a decent knife and got lots of use, and fit really comfy in my hand.

Completely agree, that safety completely ruins these knives. I never engage the safety, but it always seems to engage itself, not a good feature at all.

Never had an issue with the real deal 06 Auto.

I really liked the grip too, and the balance, but that one point about the safety just ruins it... It is exposed to everything in the pocket, when I get things out or put things in my pocket the safety sometimes disengages, or engages, I never know at what state it is at.
The reason I bought it was the way the handle extended outward where the index finger is... almost like the handle makes it's own "hilt". It works well and feels solid in my hand. It has also opened in my pocket numerous times.

Not sure about the real deal thingy or whatever. It was labeled as genuine gerber, and I bought it at the BX. just the position of where the safety is is bad design. perhaps I got a bad batch with the engage/disengage issues.

The 06 FAST is a wannabe close copy of the 06 AUTO, a fully automatic (push button) knife.
