EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

The Spyderco Polestar landed yesterday: G10 handles, BD1 blade, liner lock. What drew me to it was the liner lock, (which I prefer) and the fact that almost all of the blade length is edge. The result is that it carries smaller in the pocket than my Manix 2, but has more usable edge. Build quality is excellent; I wouldn't guess that it was made in China if it were not printed right on the blade.

On the flip side, blade centering is not great (but it doesn't rub) and the liner lock is a little bit sticky, but seems to be breaking in already.)

it's a more substantial knife than the Manix 2 and 30 bucks less expensive due to it being made in China. I think I'll keep it, but I'm not going to get into the habit of buying China-made knives anymore. It just feels dirty, these days.

It is not shown here, but I'm going to drop a Victorinox Small Tinker in my coin pocket as well. (going to gift it to a boy tonight, via his mom)
