EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I missed my Delica -- my first real EDC, going on a decade ago now -- but I know in my heart that the Bugout has fully eclipsed that model for me. But I love the Salt series, and the Salt 2 is basically a Delica that never rusts and has a chainsaw for a blade. :D

Also carrying the Smock, because these days I'm always carrying the Smock.

I spent a short day by myself in PTown as K and C were called to another job instead of us boring out the joist tails and piping the 10 floor drains. Instead I went up late, finished up a few odds and ends to complete my original contract, cleaned up and re-organized, and left early. I carried one of my favorite work knives today.

I came home to my two new beauties and spent the rest of the day carrying them around the house. They'll be users, but more of the EDC ilk and likely not work knives. The wood is warming and showing more luster just from handling. I sat out back, lubed the pivots, and the action is starting to break in bit by bit--the Endura ahead of the Delica as one would expect for a bigger knife. I had some decent light in the shade of the house and got some better pics than those hurried indoor shots last night.

I really love the finish along the handle spines with the stainless spring/Boye-dent lock release/backspacer/liners all nested together. All the bright hardware contrasts with and complements the wood which looks better and better with every touch.

Whew, finally catching up (I’m a late starter...) with all 1540 page of this truly inspirational thread - one I look forward to contributing to in the future (for tonight, I’ll include a pic of what had been in my pocket as I was reading the final pages... I know, maybe not the PC EDC with what we’re all dealing with; that’s something I’m still coming to grips with - so please forgive me.)
Looking at images like this, and SO many before, I can’t help but to think “holy crap, look at that beautiful knife someone just left behind in the tree/on a rock/sitting in a field/on a log/etc.” Then it’s a matter of wishing I could find the rightful owner. That all, said, beautiful knife, and knives that I’ve admired through all these pages. Thank you to all who’ve provided inspiration to those of us who are new(-ish).

My carry today...
(Edit... crud, can’t get my pic to take, so I’ll try again later. Main thing is to thank all the sharp people who have visually inspired me to undertake, really strengthen, this amazing passion).
