EDC - What's in Your Pocket(s)??

Since some days a Lone Wolfe "City Knife" with snakewood scales is my EDC and I am so satisfied with it. It lies so good in my medium size hand and I even can open it with one hand - the half-stop helps very much for opening and closing with one hand. The modified wharncliffe is so good to use, specially for whittling. I don't know how long it will be sharp, but let's see. And it is so proper worked - it nearly looks like a handmade ;) .
 
Today it was my 2003 redwood sebenza and my spyderco cf military. Seemed like a good day to go large but balanced.
 
Kershaw Spec Bump for now, but the novelty is wearing off along with the edge of my pocket because of the poorly designed pocket clip.

Dave, if you don't mind my asking, what's wrong with the clip? I haven't heard anyone complain about the clip on the Spec Bump or the Offset yet. I'm interested to hear your thoughts!
 
Ummm... let's see... keys on a cheap chain that clips to my belt-loop in my left pocket. Right pocket is usuall Strider-Buck Full Size Tac-Tanto, non-serrated edge. Sometimes I alternate between the Strider-Buck-Tarani or a Cold Steel Voyager (Medium sized, partially serrated) Tanto. If I'm wearing something baggy, I'll have a Cold Steel Recon 1 Spear Point (partially serrated) in a sideways cross-draw pouch on my belt. Back pockets are for my wallet and smokes/zippo.
Alas, no Glocks for Rod.

It's too shallow. It's tough to get the clip over the pocket of my jeans and that makes it difficult to smoothly remove it from my pocket.

Mine is one of the CPM 154 knives, though. I wonder if they redesigned the pocket clip in later generations? It wouldn't take much to fix this small, but extremely annoying, problem...

Thanks for the response! That's very interesting. The clip doesn't look that shallow, but maybe its made more shallow with scales. Does yours have the 3D machined scales?
 
- Fenix L1P
- Leatherman Juice S2 (best EDC multitool for Powernoodle; has pliers, blade, 3 flat screwdrivers, real 3D phillips screwdriver, etc. but its still small.)
- Sharpie
- Keys with Arc v4 AAA
- Spyderco Delica 3
- thin business card case from ebags.com as wallet
- Kahr PM9 (Uncle Mike's pocket holster or Blade-tech IWB not shown)
- bigger light added at night, like Gladius or U2 (not shown)
- Motorola flip phone on belt in Maxpedition phone holster (not shown)

The gun often changes (to one of several Glocks, 1911s, Sig, Beretta, whatever) as does the knife (Endura 3, Tanto Griptilian, Military, etc.), but the other stuff generally remains the same. I've carried the L1P for months, which is a Powernoodle record for an EDC light.
