Do you still use some of your other knifes or is it pretty much CRK...

I own RHKs, Les George, CRKs, Spydercos but believe it or not, I have been carrying Surefire EW-04 below for the past 6 years.

 
I virtually always have a my small cocobolo Sebenza on me, but there are times when I have a 0550 or 0560 with me for stupid abusive stuff. I know my Sebenza could take the abuse as well, but with street prices like they are on those particular ZTs, it's so much more economical to ruin them. :)
 
100% small Insingo. All my other knives are retired since this knife just works perfectly for what I need.
 
I rarely carry a Seb, at least over here. I keep a Hinderer in my pocket almost all the time.
 
The Sebenza 25 really helped me decide what I want in a knife. It's not just the ability to cut things but the build quality and high quality hardware that I want. It made me look at my ZTs and Spydercos, although great in their own right, as "not good enough". Therefore I sold all those and got another knife with the same build quality as the crk. For me that is the hinderer xm18 slicer. I think these two could handle my cutting chores for literally the rest of my life. So, I have a choice to make every day...Carry a sebenza 25 or an xm18. Tough choice but I feel fortunate to get to make that decision daily.
 
A Mnandi gets the majority of my pocket time. Others that get occasional pocket time are my Mayo Covert, Strider SnG and Hinderer XM-18 Flipper.
 
Mostly CRK's for me. I do carry some customs, mid techs too. The only production knife I will carry is Spyderco and even then it has an exotic steel.
 
Mnandi most of the time during the week (and all the Mnandi's I have find that rotation). I mix between small Sebenza's and Mnandi's over the weekend. There is always a small regular Sebenza in my truck, regardless of what's in my pocket.
 
My spydercos still get pocket time during work and I have a Rat 1 that gets abused during yardwork. I have too much respect for my knife and Chris Reeve to drag my umnumzaan through the things my Rat 1 sees. If I had even more money and ability I still think I would use knives other than Chris Reeves to do those dirty deeds.
 
My small Sebenza retired my other knives. I still use my custom from Keith Coleman for special occasions but my EDC is my Sebenza. Everything else sits in the drawer.
 
My Umnumzaan has been in pocket for several weeks in a row, which likely is a record for me. I find the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 to be too good not to use occasionally (for my purposes it really is a perfect EDC), and when I deliver to certain parts of town for my business, the Zaan goes to the left pocket so a waved Emerson is at the ready on the right (currently own about 9 or 10 EKI's). Also, when I'm in a "flippy" mood, a Spydie Southard that's been nicely pimped by Alex D gets some action. Looking forward to my first Small and first Insingo (same knife) that's currently inbound.

About the same with me. Switch out the Umnum with a 25 and that is pretty much what I EDC
 
I have a Spyderco Salt 1 SE that I use when I'm around salt water, or in a situation where I might lose or have to give up my knife. When I'm deer hunting, I carry a fixed blade from Fiddleback Forge, if I remember it grab it. The rest of the time (which in my case is most of the time) it's a large or small reg for me.

Nice knives. I miss that small BG42:) Glad it found a good home
