EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I like this because those look like they've actually been carried and used.

The finish on the acebeam light is deceiving, it's actually quite new. You're correct on the other items though. Not exactly sure, but the Bugout could be the most used knife I own, it's seen heavy use. I really like how the RSD scales have worn over time, the edges are almost polished now.
 
I wish more flashlights came in colors instead of black. Black makes no sense - it’s not even meant to be stealthy! What is the hardest color to find if you drop it in the dark? Black. (tactibros might disagree).

Check out Convoy Flashlights. They are affordable, high quality, and come in a huge variety of different configurations with all sorts of body colors, emitters, color temperatures, battery types, and more. The mechanical ones are generally programmable to use one of twelve different mode groups. (For instance, low-medium-high, high-medium-low, moonlight-low-medium-high, groups with a strobe function or not, and mode memory can be set on or off for any of them.)

The best source is a website that gets a lot of hate here but it's a major global market place where the quality of individual sellers matters. (One of our supporting companies here has an authorized dealer over there.) Simon Mao, the guy that runs both that store and the company itself, has been a participating member at Budget Light Forum for years and specialized in catering to the flashlight community.

Anyway, here are a few of mine. The color correction on my camera mostly mashes together the different color temperatures of the emitters here. Of course, you can definitely tell which one is filtered UV. I don't know what I did with the deep red one, but it also has a red body. You can see it illuminating the fixed blade I was using earlier today in this older picture. Lastly, here is the one I'm bringing out tonight with today's folder. It uses a 21700 battery for longer run times.

Another Al Mar day for me. While it may seem a bit much, in Spanish al mar means "to the sea" which, here on Cape Cod, is not entirely inappropriate as that's where these two knives journeyed recently. Anyway, I carried the Eagle HD around the house his morning and on my walk, switching to the SERE while I worked on my Stihl power pole pruner in the shop in the afternoon. I'm not quite ready to bang up the nice black clip with logo on the orange knife yet.

How do you like that ASK knife? I'm tempted
I’m so sorry brother for the late reply I just saw it after realizing how many pages I missed .It’s been a busy week. I really like the ASK knife it’s very light also With good blade steel cpm154 I believe. It’s also modular so you can change out the blades add or subtract tools and Change covers/scales .
