Does some lucky person out there have all 3: ATR, Persian and Chinook II?

In some ways these are amazingly similar on paper.

ATR:
longest handle (5.125"), shortest blade (3.4375"), strongest lock(?), thinnest, cobra hood, lightest (135 grams), US made, S30V, possibly strongest blade tip though perhaps least "pokey"

Persian:
shortest handle (4.875")

Chinook II:
heaviest (172g), longest blade (3.75"), perhaps grippiest handle? S30V, US made

If you had all 3 (price independent), which one would be your EDC? Would it depend on what clothes you wore (jeans, suit, cargo shorts)? Could you decide on one or would you have to implement a rotation policy?:)
 
I have had all three. the only one I don't currently have is the ATR.

The blade on the Chinook II is 3 3/4 by the way.

The one I find myself carrying most is the Chinook II. I really like it. When I want to carry a more "gentleman's tactical" I carry the Persian.

I plan on getting an ATR again when the next run comes out.

I'm not sure I could pick just one of them. They all rcok.
 
My bad, I used the Chinook's cutting edge length instead of the blade length. I'll fix that.
