EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Been carrying these all day, think I will tomorrow as well. I did go ahead and purchase a Boker Barlow Integral in Brown Micarta from DLT. Now the wait begins. Moved about a year ago to a small town in NM where the place to purchase knives is Walmart so my choices have been limited. Loved to shop at the knife store in Phoenix area, no lag and they did carry a good selection of knives. Got to know the owner and that made the shopping fun as we chatted about more than knives. Will miss that, too bad it is a five hour drive now. The trade is lots less people and traffic and close to the Gila National Forest, thank goodness for on-line stores!!

One of the real early ZT fixed blades, the 0100, back when 3v in production knives was pretty dang rare. I've had this thing since they came out. I actually had 2 and this was my spare, but I sold the other in desperate times. This one is sheathless, if anyone happens to have a ZT 0100 sheath around for some reason I'm all ears. And my well loved James Barns. The hipster knife, which is a damn good knife, although way too expensive at full price.

Its been raining all day (and looks like all week) so just been hanging indoors and got the new washer and dryer all set up. No more laundromat woohoo! Have the WMK exclusive micarta frag Raccoon on me.

Thats my son’s Lego set which looks cool and is the fanciest so far. It has 3 motors and a controller, should be fun building it with him!

inexpensive knives. They're really in a whole different league than they were a decade ago.

Part of it is these inexpensive knife companies enlist some really solid designers occasionally like Ken Onion .
Speaking of Ken Onion . . . one of the managers where I work . . . I said to her : I see a pocket clip there . What do you carry ? It was a GOLD PLATED Leek !

I see all this silly noise about prices of "real knives " going up and up ...
Well I keep seeing two of my fave cheepies I bought long ago , the Kershaw Chill and the Coast DX126 ( folding box knife ) and they have not changed in price AT ALL in five or six years ! ! !
I can HIGHLY recommend that Coast to give as a gift to non knife people who need a knife . Super quality at three or four times the price , really safe to use and easy , easy to replace the blade when it gets dull .
AND the crazy little thing is great looking !

Edited for spelling I HATE TYPING WITH MY THUMMMMBS !
