ok, i'll start. of course i shld mention the rc izula first, boker subcom folder, a tiny little japanese made folder that was my mothers edc for more than 60 yrs, kershaw cyclone, crkt guppie. those are absolutely everyday, everywhere no matter what, there are others that are added upon occasion depending on need. those are the blades, will leave up to ya'll if ya wanna include firearms. will leave that for guess right now but it does fit in that cleavage holster. ;) (btw these are all carried on my body/clothes not in a bag)

Spyderco Paramilitary
Benchmade 530
Spyderco ladybug
SAK camper
SAK classic
oh and i am probably getting an izula in about a week and a half. :)
 
I normally just have my Leatherman and either a folder or a small fixed (Izula, 3 or 4).

If I'm going to the woods it's the above combo with an added machete or large chopper or the Leatherman and RC-6.
 
I EDC an Izula, Case swayback, EITHER a ZDP-189 Delica OR a Benchmade 530, and a TOPS Shango. :)
 
I carry a Spyderco Ladybug in my keychain and a folder. I rotate among the many folders I have, but lately it has been a Spyderco Sage 1 or 2, a Caly 3, or a WH.
 
Benchmite on my keychain and Boker Subcom in my fifth pocket.

John edgar hunter
Traditional sheepsfoot slipjoint
gerber clutch
Leatherman micra on keys(Great tool by the way!)
 
The RC-Izula (belt carry)

Buck X-Tract™ LED multi-tool (belt carry)
(This is a GREAT multi-tool because it has a REAL knife,
spear point with a really good serrated edge too!)
Plus everything locks in place. :)

Buck folding Omni hunter in real tree camo design (for food use only) (belt carry)

Will be adding a Buck neck knife next week,
just under a 2" blade. (emergency/last resort/back up-back up ) :eek:

Oh this thread just SCREAMS "post your bat belt photo."

I carry a Bark River Mikro Canadian in my pocket. I then have a couple of RATS in my bag (if I carry the my bag).
 
Black Wenger Pocket Tool Chest, with Photon Freedom (white LED) attached, in the watch pocket of my jeans, and a real folder. Usually a large regular Sebenza, but today a large Doug Ritter RSK Mk 1, in a sheath. Various Spydercos were in the EDC, but I've been annoyed at having the edges of my pockets ripped up by pocket clips, so I've been sticking with folders that I have a sheath for. Last weekend I went old school with a 30 some year old Schrade USA Uncle Henry Bear Paw LB7.
 
On me:

RAT Izula and Buck 301 Stockman (occasionally a different slipjoint, or maybe a Griptilian)

In small daypack:
Victorinox Locksmith model and usually RAT H.E.S.T.
 
LOL, Mrs. S. I was thinking the same thing, I almost look like I am wearing a bat belt, LOL.
Actually a bat belt would be an easier carry, LOL. :)
 
Mrs. S - you crack me up yet again. Bat belt, ROTFLAO! Thanks for making my day.
It reminds me of a female security guard at my last job, very nice, very common sense gal, but VERY petite, less than 5 foot tall. She literally had run out of belt space for all the stuff they wanted her to carry. We both had a good laugh about her predicament, not having enough waist to hold the gear assigned, and the phrase bat belt did come up. I told her the next step was a tactical vest, with lots of pockets.

Back to the parent thread - how do you carry your Mikro Canadian; in the pouch style sheath that came with it, or custom kydex, and which pocket? I ask because I'm considering EDC for my Izulas, and contemplating the best ways to do so. Just sticking the stock sheath in the back pocket isn't going to cut it. Thanks.
 
Emerson cqc-7 karambit and an old school gerber multi tool (somewhere around 13 yrs old, they dont make em like this anymore.) :)
 
I seem to muddle through the day with only one knife most of the time. :D Carrying five or more knifes......Holy cow I could see a cop asking to search you....I think you get life in prison...do not pass go! :D

Anyway, the Izula is enough for me, sometimes I will take a BK11 in it's place. Once in a great while the Subclaw or Crossbill will join the party, just depends on what I have planned for the day.

Fancy night out....you know wearing something other then jeans or shorts will be a Kabar Dozier folder in D2. My Sunday going to meeting scalpel.
 
Hmm. I always carry either a SAK or Swisstool, and a knife or two.

Today it was a new large Case Stockman, pink Izula, and (only because I found it in the house and tossed it into my pocket so I could put it in the right place, then forgot it was in my pocket...) a yellow Sodbuster Jr.

Been kind of digging the traditionals lately, but we are heading to the bar for a few beers in a bit, and I am going to throw on my RP RC3, just to be the envy of all deer hunters (with the orange handles). :D
