Hi, I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks, but just became a member. I was wondering what all of your EDC rotations were? For me its a Spyderco Native II, a benchmade mini-grip and a kershaw skyline. I also keep an SAK on my keychain and sometimes a white endura 4 in my back pocket.
 
I have quite a few EDC-worthy knives to choose from, but the most common ones in my pocket these days are:

  • Case CV Swayback Jack
  • Spyderco VG-10 Delica
  • Kershaw Composite Leek
 
Most common to be in my pocket is a S90V military and a BM760. I also rotate through, ZT0300, BM mini-rukus, G-10 endura, JYD II CB, and a wave delica gets thrown in the mix on occasion.
 
4 have served me well. A Kershaw Mini Cyclone in Ti/ZDP has been in my pocket most every day since April of 2007. The others I mix in with it are the Kershaw ZDP composite blade Shallot (swapped with a set of CKT handles), a Kershaw 110V Shallot (again, with a set or CKT handles) and a Jason Clark custom in CPM154. An extremely well made knife, it is the smoothest opening knife I own. I was so impressed with this one it replaced my Sebenza. All are frame locks.
 
My EDC rotation include: small 21 sebenza, strider PT-CC, SNG-CC, Caly3 ZDP, BM mini-Ritter, BM 930 kulgera. And joining soon are two benchmades, 710 and 705.
 
Right now I always have a Hen and Rooster slippie (frost cutlery era =/) Vic Classic and I switch between a Kershaw S60V Blur and the SOG Aegis.
 
Rat Cutlery Izula
Rat Cutlery Izula
Spyderco Endura4 (one of my 4)
Spyderco Tenacious
Spyderco Delica
Rat Cutlery Izula

and a Vic. Fieldmaster every day.
 
Rotate these as EDC depending on my mood, where I am & what I'm doing that day:

Busse Game Warden
Busse Active Duty
Rat Cutlery Izula
Rat Cutlery RC-3
Emerson Mini CQC-7 (when traveling to states/countries where a fixed blade is illegal)
 
For me it's not just a matter of EDC. It's base on what duties/ attire I'm expected to be in on that particular day.
Suit and tie...William Henry, BO5 CTD Attache.
Casual, jeans tee shirt, Small Sebenza.
Camping, jeans tee shirt, Lg. Sebenza.
 
Office knife - U2, Ritter Mini-Grip, UKPK

Out and about of late - 710HS, 800HSS, UMS, Mayhem, Gaucho M4, full-size Ritter Wilkins-Grip

Extras of late - P'Kal, Offset, 41mc
 
I have alot of knives but i consistently carry my waved emerson cqc-10. It seems to handle everything i throw its way

With the weather being so hot and me wearing shorts all the time, I've been pretty biased to smaller/lighter knives lately.

I've been carrying the Skyline the most by far, followed by the Trance/Tuition, and occasionally the Spyderco S. Although today I went with the Ram and yesterday the JYDII CB. I like variety :D
 
I just rotate pants... the SnG follows. I have a Paramilitary, a Presidio Ultra and a Mnandi... but there is no "rotating" going on between them... been EDCing a Victorinox Swisstool "Spirit" lately on the belt... BEST multi Ive ever owned!
 
I rotate between a Spyderco Manix, Emerson SOCFK, Al Mar SERE 2000, and when I'm feeling adventerous the Spyderco Citadel. I always have a slipjoint too which could be my Erickson custom or a variety of Case cv slippies.
