Best knives you carry?

My EDCs consist of:

1. Small carry--Spyderco Jester SE on keychain
2. Medium carry--Spyderco Lum Chinese PE, or Calypso Jr. PE
3. Large carry--Military PE, or my new full sized Calypso PE
4. Field carry--Black Ka-Bar

1. small pocket every day knife, either my 1970's Queen Serpentine Jack, or Gerber Silver Knight.

2. medium carry folder, Preproduction Spyderco Calypso Jr. with Micarta Handles, or AG Russell One Hander.
3. large carry folder, BM AFCK, or BM 730 Ares
4. field/camp knife, Custom Bud Nealy Aikuchi.
 
Small pocket everyday - Well... occasionally carry would be a Victorinox Recruit.
Medium carry folder - At work Spyderco Delica, at home Small Classic Sebenza.
Large carry folder - Benchmade 710 ATS-34.
Field/Camp knife - Hiking, Fallkniven F-1, for Camping it's SOG Seal 2000.

Best Value So Spyderco does not get all the votes I'm going to say Camillus EDC (nice solid framelock) and Benchmade 550 Griptilian (smooth axis lock with hole opener).

Fun thread!

Let's see:

Victorinox Tinkr or Super Tinker
Spyderco Endura
Cold Steel Gunsite Voyager (though not so much anymore)
A 12" machette bought from Brigade Quartermasters

Best value: the machette...keeps a good edge, fairly lightweight, and CHEAP. If I break or lose it, so what.
 
And my large carries have changed..........just that quick, although the first three I listed, large bloodwood inlaid Classic Sebenza, large model 16 Carson, large anodized ti frame Crawford KFF are the same (don't see those three changing), the others have. They now are;


-----Mike Obenauf large model 2
-----Mike Obenauf large model 1

and one I haven't gotten yet but hope to have next week:D :cool: a Cutter Knife & Tool Brend DA.
 
Ok, here we go:

Small folder: Chive

Medium: BM 814 OR BM 690 OR small Sebenza with Pao Ferro inlay (I really can't decide)

Big: LCC D/A

Field/camp knife: Roselli Carpenter knife - or if I need something bigger then it is Camillus U.S.M.C Ka-bar

Best value for the money with about 3" blade? IMHO, no doubt, BM 814
 
Mine are:

1. BM 330 Mel Pardue, on my keychain
2. BM 556-GRN mini griptillian or Spyderco Calypso Jr.
3. BM 710 Plain edge
4. I don't have anything really large. Guess I'd use the 710 or my BM43-BLK.
 
Obviously everyone's view of small/medium/large is different. :)


Small EDC and duty: Camillus Talonite EDC

Medium option choice: Spyderco Military PE

Large EDC and duty: Camillus Maxx

Field/camp knife: Becker C/U 7

Skinning/dressing knife: Camillus Talonite Talon
 
1. Small Classic Sebenza
2. MOD tempest
3. Busse Mean Street(Possibly now, The Public Defender)
4. Busse CG SJ or SH-E Depending where i'm goin
 
small - Jester, Ladybug, Dyad Jr

Med - Calypso Jr PE, Merlin PE

Large - Calypso SE, Military PE, Sebenza

1: Obenauf Small or Mini Model 2 or Jeff Hall Model 4
2: Obeanuf Small Model 1 or Tom Mayo Skinner
3: Boguszewski/Wegner modified Frame Lock or Large Model 2 Obenauf or Terzoula ATCF
4: Obenauf Large Model 1

For number 1 you can mix in a bunch of mini neck knives I've been carrying front pocket as my edc's quite often as well.

Best knife for the money:
Production big blade = Spyderco Chinook
Production small blade = ?
Custom big blade = Obenauf Model Large 1 or 2
Custom small blade = Obenauf Small model 1 or 2

Sorry, I can never pick one of anything ;)
