Here are mine:
- In the tiny / key chain category, it's the Walker - huge utility in 84mm.


- For compact (2-layer) 91/3mm knives, the aptly named Compact for indoor / urban use. And of course an alox option with the slightly longer saw and the awesome awl for the outdoors. I like the venerable Bushcrafter, but if you need a tool layer, the Seven (aka Pioneer Pruner) or the Electrician Plus (Electrician with a saw).

- For mid-sized (i.e. 4-layer 91/3mm), the Fieldmaster or Supertinker (if you don't need a saw).

For the larger models, the Hunter, and when you want the best saw without bulk, the Wenger Ranger 10. I wish they'd bring the original Ranger pattern back and build it around the saw. I use them when I want a light saw to go with a larger fixed blade. 2 layers with a full-size saw, medium plain blade and combination tool would be perfect for me, but a 3-layer option that added a philips screwdriver and scissors would also be interesting.


Excuse all the fingerprints on the blades - too many mosquitoes in the garden to take my time.
