Anyone carry a large toothpick?

I have lots of slipjoints, but never bought a toothpick. I always thought that at 5 inches closed, it would be cumbersome to carry. Last week I finally bit the bullet and purchased a large Queen toothpick in D2 with Birds Eye Maple handles. What a pleasant surprise. The knife is so slim and slender it almost disappears in your pocket. And then when you open it, you get that nice big narrow 4 inch blade, which I found is an all around excellent blade for so many tasks. What do you think of the large toothpick pattern?
 
I love the Texas Toothpick pattern, and I carry one from time to time. Sometimes that long, slim blade comes in real handy.:thumbup:
 
Toothpicks are one of my favorite patterns.

Large, medium, and "tiny".

I used to carry a large toothpick, now I tend to carry a medium (4-1/4" closed).
 
I don't carry a large toothpick, but I have carried a Laguiole in the past. Doesn't carry bad at all. I don't even notice it when it's right next my wallet.
 
I don't own one but everytime I go to a steakhouse and give me a butter knife to cut my steak I think a full sized toothpick would make a great gentleman's steak knife. One of these days I will see one that just scream out to be taken home and I will succumb to the pressures and take it home.

This is why my collecting is so scattered across the available styles of slipjoints. I don't collect a particular type but when I see certain knives I know the should belong to me.
 
I have a Queen in Amber Bone
A very lovely knife

I use it often on my table as my bread knife

I have a Case and I think it is a great folding kitchen knife, or like a picnic knife or something. Its pretty slim so it carries well.
 
I like medium to large toothpicks, I have a Case or two:) and an AG Russell Texas Rangers(the one with the leaf shaped blade).
And I snagged this one from Don Hanson III.
