EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

First Ladybug I've seen with a taste for blood

Good thing I keep it sharp, I didn't feel a thing. I wish I could say that for the stitches I'm about to get though

I've been carrying one daily for years, and have a back up in case I lose it.
Amazingly... I've lost it 5 or 6 times, but always somehow managed to find it.
I keep it dummy corded to my 'Magnetic' TUMI money clip.. it sticks to it.
CountyComm made a run of them years ago with H1 steel, I bought two.

I finished all my trim fabrication for the door replacement project this morning, cut and sanded the interior arch-top template to send to the millwork shop, and made a couple test joins in my shop before heading to the job site to fit, join, and install the pediment along wit the fluted pilasters and kick board.

I seemed to recall abbazaba abbazaba and @ScooterG looking for more K390 goodness, so I carried my only example of that today. The Police 4 is so slim in pocket and slicey, it makes a great work knife.

After I dragged my weary ass home after a too long day (bailed out at its end by my loyal son who came by to stow away the myriad tools, supplies, and fasteners I had out), I sat in the shop and shaved a few pointy shingle shards to clean out the PVC adhesive nozzle.

My new Clyde just showed up in the mail today..... it's one of the smallest knives I've held but it's well balanced and fits my hand decently. Going to be rocking this guy for a while.

Thats lil guy is sweet! Was just scopin it out on A dealer site earlier. Love the micarta. Must resist...

Civivi plethiros came in today. Its a very unique looking design (as most Ishams are) and feels like its gonna be very useful with the tall FFG grind, the highly arched handle that places the knuckle away from the cutting surface, and its thinness BTE i think its going to be a great performer. Interesting vertical flipper tab and lightweight for a 3.5" blade with a great action as expected.
 
Nice! Make it shorter if you can ;) This is the one CRK that I'm certain isn't going anywhere, and I knew it the minute it was in my hand.
I had one years ago when I was younger (and apparently foolish). I traded it for another knife and have been meaning to replace it. It could possibly be my next purchase. But I'm easily distracted by other sharp things that fold and clack.
 
How do you like the Bareknuckle? I've been thinking of picking one up.

The bareknuckle is the direction i hope Kershaw is heading towards with more ball bearing pivots instead of assisted openers. a full size knife made in the good ol USA and its affordable imo with a good action and a larger and useful blade shape. the aluminum handle has a finish thats not slippery and similar to a BM 940 feeling. My only gripe is the width of the subframe lock and that the handle is not very wide at that point so you have to be very mindful of not putting finger pressure on the lockbar when deploying. I swapped out the stock short deep carry clip for a longer one (HOB style complimentary from Kershaw) and that gave more purchase area for the fingers when deploying and helps to keep them off the lockbar. While sandvik is ok Im hoping for an upgraded steel version to come out but i would recommend getting one as its a good knife and carries nice being thin and not heavy.
