EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?


Picture of my hospital wrist band before leaving the hospital with my baby boy who was born Saturday evening. What a great father's day gift. Came home to my 2yr old daughter who just wants to hold him and feed him. Feeling blessed... But exhausted....

Congratulations, I’m really happy for you.
 
here's today's: over-the-top design, but some redeeming qualities. kershaw 2035 "Parsec", apparently Star Trek inspired. got it at a Woot! sale, about $30 shipped. when it arrived, it was almost impossible to overcome the closed detent. having seen enough shabazz youtube, i disassembled it, put a tiny drop of Daiwa gear oil on the ceramic bearings, put it back together, and it was still stuck. i then found a youtube reviewer saying that because of the design of the lock, squeezing the knife kept the flipper from working. doh! without a death grip, action's fine. i'm still learning.

P.S. - after reassembly, i found 2 tiny yellow metal washers left over. i didn't know if they went inside or outside the bearing, so i put 'em outside. still works.
question: is there a good source for knife schematics? i tend to have leftover parts when i assemble/reassemble stuff.
