EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I had to go back and look up my receipts to see if my immediate love for the CruCarta PM2 led me to order the RGT nat Micarta scales for my Kapara or vice versa. Chronologically the Kapara scales came first but it may have been that looking at the CCPM2 on line led to that initial purchase. Anyway, the CF Kapara was a knife I kinda liked but also found to be not a great fit for my hand with its slick scales. I might have sold it off too if not for my wife liking it a lot. The way-more-grippy canvas Micarta made all the difference in the knife's usability and, despite my usual affinity for carbon fiber, it's much more handsome appearance is a not inconsequential bonus.

The RGT scales are really well made and fit great. They also came with a matching Micarta backspacer which I did not install as I like the contrast of the original red G10 piece and that it maintains a connection to the knife's Australian namesake arachnid.
