Down to 5 of your folders

This question plagues me quite often and I literally just reevaluated my answer last night by acquiring my grail knife. The answers evolve periodically, but if I had to choose right now:

- Oz Machine Co Roosevelt
- CRK Small 21 Black micarta with Insingo blade
- Quiet Carry IQ
- Hogue Deka with modified wharncliffe blade
- CRK Mnandi with bog oak inlay
 
Chris Reeve small 21 Insingo
Southern Grind Spider Monkey in either copper or carbon fiber 🤔
American Blade Works model 1 in micarta
JD Van Deventer EDC in carbon fiber
Leatherman Wave

At least those are my most commonly carried these days…

1) Buck 110
2) Ontario Rat 1 (D2)
3) Syderco Endura Gen 1 PE FRN Clip-it
4) Spyderco Tenacious
5) Victorinox Swiss Army Explorer

To keep to "treasure":

1) Kershaw Tilt
3) Olamic Rainmaker
4) Spyderco Nirvana
5) Tighe Breaker
5) ZT0452CFM390BLU

Fun question and very thought provoking between favorite (tend to be larger and more $) and most carried/used (smaller and less $)

Favorite: Shirogorov F3NS (Black CF)/CRK Sebenza 31 (Burl)/RHK Eklipse (Tanto-Red-SW)/Spyderco GB2 (Black/M4)/RHK Eklipse (Bowie-ODE-SW)

Most Carried (due to work limitations): Spyderco PM3 (S30V)/Enzo Birk 75 (ironwood)/Spyderco Pattadese (m390)/LionSteel BM13UL (burl/m390)/Enzo Birk 75 (carbon fiber)
 
Only 5? 🤫
Large Inkosi w/S35 steel
Custom Shop Mini Griptilian w/M4 sreel
Manix 2 w/S110V blade
Mnandi w/S35 steel
Mini Bugout w/S30 steel


But my Grampa Denman's hunting knife would just have to be close by, and well-hidden...
