How many knives do you carry daily?

A modern folder and a traditional folder, plus a Leatherman on my belt.
 
I had these to day my freinds were like is it the zombie apocalypse today!?!

One in my pocket one in my bag and at least one in my truck, plus I useualy have a leatherman in the truck.
 
Two. Folder clipped to my pocket, and an SAK in the other pocket(I often use my folder when one of my hands is full, so 1 handed opening is a plus, then I use the SAK for the other tools).
 
Always a modern folder in my front right pocket. Mostly a small micarta seb or small Insingo seb. More recently I've got a Bk11 on my belt and very recently a case Copperlock wherever there is room.
I always have my leatherman rebar in its black leather belt pouch, even when I don't have a belt on (rarely) I make sure it's on me or in my bag at least. I usually swap out whatever modern folder for my grip while I'm working.

They don't all get used, I just like knives and enjoy carrying different types to have the right tool for the right job although just one paired with my leatherman can knock out pretty much any task.

It's not just a tool, it's a lifestyle.

Amen.

I carry a ZT 0121 (fixed), ZT 0350, ZT 0700, and a CS Spartan. Then there is the SAK Traveler, and a mini multi tool. Always having the right tool for the right job and the right blade type for the job at hand.
 
3 Almost every day. A SAK Rambler with the keys always. An Alox Soldier in the RF pocket most times, and then a one-handed flipper after work. I've been using a bullnose a lot lately, and love it. The Bullnose would easily bump the Soldier, but I need a pry tool, so I need to re-think my load. the Soldier is so useful though. Hard to bump it.
 
2-3 usually. Victorinox Manager on the keys and either a 2+ blade traditional knife or a 1+ blade traditional knife and a modern folder/fixed blade. Either way, I like having 2+ knives with 3+ blades available to me.
 
On my person I carry a traditional slipjoint in a pocket and a locking folder with a clip.

I have a very small knife on a key ring, and both fixed blades and folders in the emergency/tool box in my car.
 
Lately, LOL: a Micra has been on my keyring forever, but I hardly use it. I defer to a SAK in my left front pocket, kept there with an AAA Streamlight, and an OC spray. The right front pocket has had a medium Buck stockman for a month or so now. I replaced it today with a large Buck, and I felt a bit self-concious opening a blister pack of anti-acid pills at my desk with it. When I go back to the car, I normally clip on a Stretch or Vulcan as a back-up defensive tool.
 
Holy cow.

I feel so under prepared.

I carry 2. These 2.

Well... sometimes I swap the Opinel for another locking folder. And, fessing up, I keep a full size Leatherman in my EDC pack for bigger things. Rarely use it.

Use the Micra and Opinel both daily.
 
2 Knifes I carry daily. one is my trustly old SAK Explorer and other is my most recent acquisition, Backwood customs 2.75 inch fixed blade with Carbon fiber scales.
 
2.5. A red Bantam on me, an Alox Bantam in my wallet, and a Gerber multitool in my work bag.
 
It varies regularly, but last few days it's been:
1: Leatherman Micra on keyring.
2: Victorinox MiniChamp on keyring.
3: Leatherman Surge on belt.
4: Wenger Ranger(can't remember what #) in LFP.
5: Esee 4 with improvised deep carry pocket clip in RFP.
6: Esee Izula in right cargo pocket.
7: In RBP either a nice retractable box cutter at work, or a
large Cold Steel Voyager (29TLC) after work.

I don't tend to use the swiss army knives and the multitools as
knives. They are mostly there for the other tools and or back-up
blades. And the Esee are there because I tend to go hiking or
four-wheeling alot after work so I like to be prepared any time I
leave the house. And the box-cutter and Voyager are the main
work blades.
 
I usually carry a folder in my right pocket, then either a small fixed blade like a Crkt minimalist on my left side or a neck knife, then i have a little spyderco bug on my key chain
