Hmm 
,caught me with my norm EDC 710 clipped to my right front pocket,
a 707 in my left front(No P-CLip),and a kershaw Scallion in left rear pocket.
Seems, since i joined this forum, i went from EDC'n 2 knives straight for 20 or so years,(Retired them to safe)and now carry an average of 3 on me at most times.
I find myself in a dilema some days,you know at night or early in the morning, one of them makes it into my robes right pocket,so i dont feel totally naked when in contrast i am

I'm doing a passaround evaluation this week, so I have the passaround Spyderco Dodo clipped to my right front pocket.
Watch pocket has a Bulldog bonestag 3-3/8" sowbelly.
Belt has a Leatherman New Wave in LM leather sheath, bit holder in the rear sleeve, Peak Matterhorn 3 LED in the front sleeve, Mini Sharpie in the rear sleeve. Oh, and my cell phone in the belt holder, too.
Keychain has the usual: Victorinox Midnite Manager, Photon Freedon micro LED light, Bison whistle, SecureID token, Traser glow ring, Apple Computer fob just 'cos, clip lanyard, and... oh, right, a few keys.
But best of all, in the side pocket of my carpenter jeans is the Manix I just got two days ago, just because I can't bear to leave it home!

Kershaw Onion Leek and a Victorinox SAK Fisherman.
I am carrying an inexpensive knife that I bought at K-Mart.It cost about $14 and is branded as an Outdoor Life.It is made by United Cutlery and is built like a tank.As you may suspect,it has its shortcomings:such as the blade screw came loose after many openings.
I fixed that by using self-made plastic washers:made from a detergent bottle.
It also has a suspect blade screw that seems to be made from aluminum and not steel.
In the event that it ever goes snap,I intend to fix it with a nut and bolt.
The reason that I have this knife versus a Buck/Gerber/Cammilus/Case/Victorinox/Wenger et al is that I have managed to lose or have stolen all of those brands.
So this time I went inexpensive.
By the way,this knife will cut through a hardcover 100 page book,before I have to touch it up.
I have inherent faith that it will get me out of an alley encounter with thugs;it is a strong knife.
My dream knife at this moment is an Ontario Knife,the Marine Raider.
For $55 I can get a knife that will cleave a pit bulls skull or take its head right off of its shoulders.
By the way,I live in West Virginia and I can carry that Ontario Raider tucked into the small of my back:as long as it is visible;the handle that is,the whole knife need not be.I have done that with a Cammilus Marine Fighter and gotten double takes along with being stopped by the cops.I walked away with my knife and a song in my heart.
I have had a .357 Mag in my front pocket and the knife as back-up:we can still do that here.
God Bless America!

CS Medium Voyager 3" plain edge clip point and an old Gerber tool that I don't know the model of. I've had it for years and still comes in handy.

Main EDC in my right front pocket is an old school Brend grind Microtech Socom Elite. In the same pocket there's a micra in a custom Lifter's Leather money clip with a Fisher bullet space pen.
In my left front pocket, there's a Vic Cybertool 29.
Left rear pocket has a bandana and a Surefire L4.
The laptop case has a new style WAVE, a small Cold Steel plain edge tanto Voyager (back up in case I forget to put a better EDC in my pocket) and a DMT Duo-Fold coarse/fine diamond sharpener.
The ever present ARC AAA LE hands on my keyring.
A trusty Seiko SKXA35 on an Oyster style bracelet adorns my left wrist
My wife laughs when I do a pocket dump when I get home.

I'm carrying the same thing I carry every day (since I got it)
Large Classic Micarta Sebenza.
I can't imagine carrying any other knife at this point.
