what's your EDC carry knife

[Omicron]

Should have gone on to say

• Knife sits really low in my pocket, not much is visible but the clip.
• Clip holds pocket firmly, but no so firmly that I'm tearing up my pants when I clip it in place.
• Profile of the knife is thin in the pocket, and is lightweight but not too much so, barely makes a dress pant pocket sag.
• Fast easy opening with the flipper or thumb stud, has a back lock (which I prefer) instead of a liner lock that's back far enough to be out of the way but easy to access, also has a lock on the back lock to lock the blade open or closed.
• Steel and build quality is superb, blade is nice and tight once open with almost no play.
• Black "TiNi" coating on blade is very good, I've used it on some tough stuff and it barely shows any wear.
• Handle material of black one feels like a thin piece of steel, coated seeming with the same stuff the blade is.
• Wood version is just a tiny bit lighter than the black version, very nicely finished.
• These cost about $65-$75ish on Amazon, and come in a variety of blade styles and finishes.

• Mine are the XL model with a 3.25" blade. There's also a smaller SOG Twitch model available with a 2.65" blade.
• ONLY drawbacks I've been able to find are that the handle is a bit wide (not thick) in pocket, narrowing the pocket opening access slightly more than I'm used to (maybe 1/4 inch?). And secondly, because clip allows the knife to sit so low in the pocket, getting it out takes a little bit different technique than I'm used to.

Go ahead and laugh, but I've been carrying a leatherman skeletool for 6 years now. Decent enough blade for everyday use, pliers come in handy all the time, and ya never know when you might need a screw driver or bottle opener. All in a (somewhat) lightweight and slim package.

I have a couple multi tools with me at all times but I don't pocket carry them. Nothing wrong with EDCing a skeletool.

Shrade Old Timer. Belonged to grandpa, grandma gave it to me as graduation gift. Been carrying it ever since.

Have had to have it repaired twice.

I bought a skeletool solely for that reason but never was able to get used to the feel of it in my pocket.

Mini-griptillian. Foreblade is serrated, but that's what they had on amazon.com at the time.

My EDC is a CRKT M16-10z or a Spyderco Delica. The M16 cost about $15 on sale at Big 5. Neither is anything fancy, but they get the job done.
