SAK Outrider, Opinel #8 or 9 (food prep only), NWA forum knife, and either a Fiskars hatchet or Bahco Laplander saw, depending on my mood.
 
Folder and fixed at least 6'' blade, at least 1/4'' thick, sometimes less than that. (If I already have a folder, I have no use for a small fixed blade)
 
Fixed blade of less than 6" and 1/4" thick on my belt. An SAK and Tact folder in my pockets, along with a folding saw in my pack. If I'm deeper in the back country I'll swap out my tact folder for a small fixed blade.
 
Oh my damn, I carry way too much stuff.

Leatherman Wave (Belt)
Spyderco Manix (Pocket)
Folding Silky Saw (Pack)
Ray Laconico 8" Fixed Blade (In/On my pack)
Smaller fixed blade of some kind (Belt)
Sometimes I carry a GB Wilderness hatchet in adition to the big fixed blade, sometimes I carry it instead of the big fixed blade. (Pack)
 
Hi all Here is I carry every day rain or shine, whether in the
timber or town. My Pathfinder has a 6" long by 5/32" blade.
And as of the last few days I have added to the back of the
sheath a knife I call the Handy Little Knife. This handy little
knife has a 4" long by 3/32" thick by roughly a 5/8" wide
blade. It is just a great back up blade to the bigger blade
and cuts like a handy little knife should. Both have Orange
handles and are full tang. Along with my firesteel and
my E-Z lap sharpener, this sytem just works for me.

Here is a couple of fuzz sticks I carved up with each knife.

if i'm going out about town i have a endura#4 in a belt pouch, a slip joint and a outrider sak. if scouting the backyard i strap on a becker bk-7 or a fallkniven s-1.
 
I always have one of two, either my Case Canoe or my Spyderco Delica.
 
I'll take a stab at it - Around the place these days, I almost always seem to have a Leatherman Wave and a BRKT TUSK. Always close by is something bigger, maybe a golok of some kind, or a khuk.

Last time I went camping I had a SAK Locksmith, a Mora 2000, and an HI 18" Pen Knife.

I choose slip joint folder for climbing rescue purpose. It will be hang from climbing harness.
Fixed blade will be chosen in case of doing rich(from my point of view ;) dinner for cooking.
 
Would you define "carry"? IOW, are we talking EDC, here, or something else?

I was wondering about this too,

In my pockets when I go to work. Kershaw Blur, Swisstech keychain folding pliers, and a large nail clippers. I lost my leatherman micra, need a new one.

But if i got to the field, some type of hatchet er few, small saw or fiskar folding saw, under 6 under 1/4 knife. plus stuff in pockets. this is in the truck. thinned down for walking around.

Where do I heck off my bill hook? Its ove a 1/4 thick and is an old one from england. chops brush good and make a very good makeshift drawknife for peeling bark off of wood. Pat
 
Great Googly Moogly!! :eek::eek:

I seem to be ... ridiculously, relentlessly, remorselessly ... average. :confused:
