EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Sorry, off-topic but: I had a ‘55 & my folks had a ‘53. I see the badge on the front fender: do you have a 327 in it? Beautiful little “semi-woodie”!

Thanks ! This used to be a 150 Handyman.

Now it has a Jegs GM 350 CID in it. Photos with knife content :) :

It was rebuilt in Long Beach (still has a surfer sticker :) ). Made its way to NC from where we got it. On a side note, the wooden roof is from a VW bus.
 
Ten minutes after opening the Bailout I was Googling pommel replacements. 😂

...But an hour later, I remembered two things: 1) on an ordinary day I don't open my knife 800 times, and when I actually get it out, use it, and stow it again I barely notice the pommel. And 2) on the Bugout, my instinctual closure method of bracing the butt in my hand caused me to nip the meat of my palm with the tip more than once because it's so close to the end of the handle. The pommel on the Bailout completely negates that issue.

I had to try the small Krypton. The lines of the knife just look like they would be a perfect EDC. I wasn’t disappointed. Very well made for the money. Hydraulic smooth. Ergonomically friendly. The Kickstop flipper tab feature is sick.IMG_0096.jpegIMG_0095.jpegIMG_0098.jpegIMG_0099.jpeg

Now try some scales from AWT for a major improvement. IMO, at least.
