Folders - What's in your pocket?

I almost always have a Benchmade Griptilian 551 PE
Now it is either the orange handle with a black blade still PE
Or the original Black with uncoated blade

The only thing that has been able to bump my grip is the Emerson CQC 7A

I like my folders to be able to handle anything and the grip just feels right, altho my Emerson is more pocket time lately.

Great looking knife! I currently have the same one in my pocket.
 
Spyderco Delica 4, right front pocket
Queen Cutlery Texas Toothpick, left back pocket

Work:

Buck Small Bucklite Max, right front pocket
Case Texas Jack, left back pocket

The ESEE Izula Folder and the DPX Folder cannot get here fast enough.
 
RAT Ontario 1 folder.

good knife for the price ($27-30) it gets used quite a bit. love the fact that is very very easy to put a really sharp edge on it.
 
SAK Climber in left pocket and Spyderco Delica (gray, full flat grind) in right pocket. The delica trades places with a Kershaw Cyclone and a Buck Vantage Pro (among others) on the weekend.

RAT Pack # 177
 
Most of the time I have to carry a sub 3" folding blade due to our laws but when I can justify it I have one folder that will directly compete with the HEST for time.

Its a custom made Shing Dreadnought. 96mm Blade, 220mm overall length (when open), D2 blade with a Titanium housing! :D
 
Depending on how much weight I want in the pocket that day, I rotate between: Benchmade Rukus, Emerson CQC-15, Spyderco xhp Manix 2, sog-tac, or a Kirby Lambert Sniper.
 
Rat-1 folder in the right front, Blade Tech Mouse Lite in the left front and a Vic Farmer in the right rear...

For years it was an Al Mar SERE 2000. When I really started getting into knives I started rotating it. I've recently retired my Rat 1, Spyderco Tenacious and Cold Steel Voyager for my new BM Griptilian 550HG. Amazing knife.

Waiting for the H.E.S.T folder which I think will top all of the others. :)
