EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I think this is my favorite knife with a sub-3" blade: Buck Vantage Pro, small. (2.5" blade) It's got nice rosewood scales flush within the Zytel grip frame, S30V blade steel, DLC-coated blade and an unobtrusive deep carry clip. Blade centering is not great and it requires a tiny bit of wrist action to flip open reliably, but that doesn't bother me; it makes me feel skilled.

The centering is the usual deal with less expensive liner locks in which we have to choose between blade centering and low friction pivot action.

Here's an old pic with my Hamilton Khaki Mechanical watch, which is in the WW2 field watch style and has a fun hand-wound movement.
