EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Haven’t posted much lately. Life has been a whirlwind while we sold our old house, packed everything up and put it into storage, moved into a new temporary place, and started the process of building on some property we bought last year. All of the packing and moving was done with some variety of CRK in-hand.

Although we only moved 45 minutes from our old house, we’re in a much quieter area and closer to my home town and office. The scenery isn’t bad either.

Much as I like 15V, when an all day rain settles in S110V is the better choice.

It's not subjective if its the subject of a technical discipline at the core of the modern manufacturing we depend on. The definition of "Quality" is "fitness to purpose." In this context, if a reasonably affordable knife meets all my objective criteria for use and reliability and has proven itself in years of personal use testing, I'd subjectively be a damned fool to chase some mythical unicorn of better paper specs in one narrow dimension. When I venture out into the sea of commercial knife offerings for a new purchase. I find that once I get a bit beyond the $100 depth, the water can get a whole lot deeper, but it doesn't get one bit wetter! (I just bought an SRK 3V new, in a short run color, for $82,49 - just by waiting for the right deal - they do come along eventually.).
I certainly understand your cheapskate viewpoint and largely share it .

But this here forum is more about enjoyment and pleasure seeking via the "knife hobby" .

Function , performance and even value , is often a concern .

But the primary concern is for entertainment and improved quality of life (fun) .
