I think you've put together my perfect "real world" knife combination.
If nothing else, it's an excuse to pick up a Wrench Knife of my own, to pair with my Alox....

Nice, I want to try a Stitch some day.Going to give it an honest tryout, see how it lives up to it’s mythical reputation. So far it carries very comfortable and is nicely balanced in the pocket. I like the clip but dislike the color of it. I doubt it can knock my Socom off the top of the hill, but I’ll have some fun while trying to.

Silly question but why is this thread called EDC XIII? Were there 12 other EDC threads before this?
Retired UPS Driver Congrats on the Stitch! I agree with you on the clip. Funny how that seemingly less significant detail can either enhance or detract from the overall impression a knife makes. Hope you enjoy it.
Going for some serious heat!
I'm right there beside you with my Sawbys, I always thought they were out of my league and WAY past what I thought I'd ever drop on a knife...but damn if I don't absolutely love them with zero regretsFor a long time the RDD was my grail and one I thought I'd likely never own as its price point was considerably beyond my self-imposed Maginot Line for sharp, pointy objects. A while back, I'd even passed up what I figured was the best price I'd ever see on one in a surprising display of self-discipline for a knife knut. When I got an even better opportunity earlier this year, though, I reached not too-too far across that line and acquired the object of my desire. What I wondered at the time and later was if another blade would become my new grail, but now, even some time later, there are knives that I'd like to acquire, but none that have really taken this one's place as my ultimate.
Y'all are probably getting sick of me posting this Tom Mayo/Sergey Shirogorov beauty, but I assure you I'm in no way growing weary of carrying, using, and showing off this baby.
