EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

The above CPK is a work knife, that I use when under car or bike.

Yesterday, my 99 Fatboy got a "post-pandemic" service.

Fuel-valve was stuck, and the carburator was beyond service ... so I replaced both. The "new" carburator (on the right below) came from ebay, $200 taken off another softtail with 7k miles on it.

That 80 cubic inch softtail has an aluminum "primary chaincase", that runs wet. Every few years, I check the case for integrity, check the starter (after some years of use, the starter destroys the large gear wheel behind the clutch - happened three times so far on that bike).

A few years back, the bike sat a couple of inches lower; one day, the chaincase touched the ground in a curve. Just a cosmetic issue though. All good with it yesterday.
