Best knives you carry?

SIFU1A - "nealy pesh kabz w/M2 blade and MASS sheath system - my fav fixed blade "

I always had my eye on the Pesh. May get in in Nov. at the show if Bud shows up. Hows the grip? This one had a nice index finger guard.

SLIDE 13 - "Small fixed blade- Dozier Straight Personal, carried every day on my belt (can be seen as my avatar) "

Yet another knife I keep going back to and gazing at wistfully, like a distant beautiful woman. This looks like an ideal size for horizontal belt carry. How's the sheath that Bob makes? How's the knife in comfort and handling? Some folks have called Straight Personal the ideal urban carry fixed blade.
 
I love the knife and the sheath. The knife has a great feel in the hand. Theres something about the shape of the handle and the finger grooves that just really make it feel good. The blade is outstanding and the sharpest I have ever seen. The sheath is also probably some of the best done kydex I have seen. It rides nice and tight on the belt, and has a unique methad of getting the knife out. Bob's sheaths work like mechanisms, where by pushing down on the belt clip part as you pull the knife out, the sheath opens up and allows you to draw the knife. As you go to return it, it snaps securly into place. Once the knife is in the sheath, there is actually no pressure on the knife from the sheath. The sheath is just ever so slightly larger that the knife can wiggle around in the sheath the tiniest bit, but the snapping action of the sheath means the knife is held incredibly securly. Its hard to explain properly, but its the best I have seen as far as kydex goes.

I love the knife for EDC. It rides tightly on my right side, is quick to draw and return, and I have the coral micarta handles so its a little more sheeple friendly then some others. The cutting performance is the best I have seen, and this size is my ideal length for daily use.
