EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I was happy today both to be done with with my PIA job and coz I don't plan on taking on another project (other than what sheetmetal shop work might pop up) for some time to come. There's plenty enough to do both here and in Vermont and while I'll carry work users as appropriate for our own tasks, more leisurely days will afford me the opportunity to pocket some of those knives I use but keep nicer.

I happily got my new Hudson out this morning but then saw @Mako109 's post of his handsome Sonoma which led me to retrieve my GM3 which was the basis for that subsequent ACE release. As I was headed over to work out on my day of leisure, the smaller, lighter GM was a good choice for T-shirt pocket carry given that the nice warm weather had me in b-ball shorts. For a smaller knife, the GM3 still carries the long and pointy vibe that's very much in my bailiwick and looks fitting in pics with the much larger Cheburkov. I also like that it's a somewhat rare configuration as a Ti-both-sides knife that's also a linerlock as well as having a nail nick for more discreet opening as may be deemed more seemly.

Part of Fantastic Friday carry :thumbsup:
I’ve had many knives come and go over the years with some 3 or 4 times past the price point of this ZT 0562 Ti and this one hasn’t left my modest collection and don’t think it ever will.
That right there says it all about this knife.

In my collection there are 3 beloved XM-18s and several ZTs yet i have never owned an 0562 although have almost pulled the trigger many times. After acquiring a quite excellent 0392 recently, which is the ZT version of the Hinderer Eklipse as you probably know, i think an 0562 is still on the list. Now Ti like yours or CF? Wonder which is the heavier version?

I’ve had both the CF version 0562 and currently the Ti . I believe the Ti is heavier from memory but actually haven’t checked the specs. I think you would be happy with either. I just love the feel and looks of the Ti and it makes this clink sound when opening and closing that I really like that the cf does not do.

Just having a cold beverage and getting ready for Some UFC action :thumbsup:
I got lucky when I bought mine. I was also on the hunt and BHQ had a big ZT sale a year or two ago and scored mine for far less then what the cf version sold for :eek:
