EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Just added a MXG DP clip on one of my
Hogue Deka’s And I’m liking it. Looks great with a nice and deep pocket ride but still snatches from the pocket easily. Think I will leave my FDE Deka’s with the stock clip since I like that one to. Feels good in hand also with no hot spots.

Awesome knife man, I really wish they made a frame lock flipper, I'd buy the clip point and wharnie!

That Swayback looks awesome, how do you like it? is that on bearings or washers? Action tight or smooth?

The Swayback is a very cool knife! I have been waiting for over 6 years for this one to finally go into production! Fit and finish is what you expect from a Taiwanese Spyderco, feels very high end all around. There are a few things that I don't like though. They didn't chamfer the lockbar which creates a sharp edge there. Not a huge deal but a little disappointing in this price category. Really annoying is the clip. I don't know what they were thinking but that polished steel looks horrible on this beautiful knife! Replacement clips are available but from what I have seen they all sit a bit too high. For now I took the clip off. Finally, in my opinion this is the perfect timeless gentleman's folder design. The perfect blend of modern and traditional. But then I don't understand why the blade has to be over 3.5"! A 3" blade would have been the perfect EDC...
The detent is pretty stiff, knife is running on PB washers. The action is good on mine but not the drop shut type. Ergos are OK but not amazing, the access to the Spydie hole is a bit limited by the frame. Overall I'm very happy with it, I just wish it was smaller!
