EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I've been looking to gradually winnow down my stupidly overlarge accumulation of folding knives and have been trying to carry a few on some days that don't see much pocket time. I haven't had much luck so far in finding candidates for exile as their inclusion in this process has tended to remind me why I liked them in the first place. Today's candidate is my RHK HalfTrack, which I've thought a bit small and thick for much use.

I bought this in 2018 about the same time I had my hip replaced after finding it on the Exchange. whitty whitty had generously let me use one of his personal knives to try out and I subsequently bought one from USAMB. This one replaced that one which I sold here and I added the copper hardware, bumbling through that process in a heavily medicated post-operative state. Its initial stages patina-ing (is that a word?) disappointed me, but now I really like it in its fully developed state. I'm also enjoying having it with me and using it today and it will go back into the drawer tonight, safe and secure for future use.

Only problem I have with it is getting it out of my pocket without it opening, and I've got it way too sharp to make any mistakes. 😳
Yes sir, carried only Emerson for quite a few years. Made a habit of holding the blade closed with my pointer finger as pulling it out the pocket. Works well from having it accidentally wave. Still do it to this day with all my knives out of habit.
