EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I have several knives in the $75-$150 range. They are in my knife drawer and I carry the above most of the time

Still taking it easy post surgery, so hanging around the house in my jammies...
Nice lightweight option to break down some boxes in pajamas...

Just a personal experience, but... I’ve found small-scale woodcarving to be a great post-surgical diversion. You can do it with any blade and any wood, though basswood and those specialized woodcarving knives (oversized, ultra-ergo handles and small fixed blades) are best. The only thing to watch out for is that if you’re on pain meds (a/k/a brain relaxers) you need to be careful you don’t start carving your own fingers. I’m presently going through another round of post-op woodcarving and presently working on some “comfort birds”. Happily, no carved fingers yet... Good luck with your post-op layup.

And on the subject of this thread... I’m not really “carrying" anything today because I don’t carry anything when I’m post-op and alone at home, but I’m using a couple Pfeil brand carving knives from Woodcraft.
