EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Having a pretty much lazy day here. I went for a light grocery shopping this morning just ahead of the usual Sunday 10 AM store onslaught of tourists and prepared us a noon meal after. Otherwise I've been hanging around the house and yard while puttering just the least amount and carrying my full-sized Wayfarer Classic. While the Mokume is really attractive, it's also pretty easily scuffed, which bothers me less than the fragility of the clip which is fairly easily bent. I've been thinking of sending it back to Olamic to have the bolsters and clip replaced with something more durable--say brushed Ti or something similar that would make this really solid, beefy knife more of a practical user than showpiece.

Still, she's quite the looker as is, an excellent cutter/slicer, a pleasure to handle and carry, and I'm grateful I had the chance to acquire her.

Tough knife to photograph, too, with all the differences in contour, variegated materials, finishes, coloring, and plenty of reflectivity....
