How many knives do you carry daily?

Always one folder,(Generally a Strider SnG, or Para 2, Occasionally a Mercator k55k, or Opinel #7) and a sak classic on the keys. Most of the time I have a juice c2 with me as well.
 
3-4" locking folder, usually a ZT in RF pocket. 3 blade stockmen with wallet in RR. Vintage boyscout knife in coat pocket. classic sak on keychain.
Thats 6 edges, I also carry 3 flashlights...
 
Usually just one fixed blade and a flashlight. Sometimes I bring a multi tool along as well depending on the day. It seems odd to me when people carry two folders of roughly the same size and utility.
 
lately its been one a mid sized folder today it was a emerson cqc-10 in my RFP but if im going to a not so great neighborhood ill carry two seeing as i cant carry a firearm yet usually another emerson in BLP so i have one available to each hand or a fixed blade under left arm
 
on average, 3 during the week and 2 on the weekend. During the week at work and in class I have a ontario rat 1, leatherman wingman, and a leatherman es4. On the weekend I cut it back to just a folder and the es4.
 
Keep in mind I'm a knife freak so take that into consideration, now I just pulled 5 knives outta my pocket a Case SBJ, a Spyderco FRN Dyad, a Case/Tony Bose Sowbelly, the GED 2012 Forum Trapper and the 2009 Queen/Schatt Morgan Forum Barlow.

Now I'm not includin' the Spyderco Mini Police Necklace, the SAK Mini Champ on the keyring or the other 5-20 other knives I carry in my bag, oh and don't forget the Bud Nealy Aikuchi I carry in my back pocket or the Pat Crawford Framelock I carry in my wallet, yea, I'm a knife freak.
 
esee 3, izula, salt h1, leatherman squirt on the keys, and i usually have a sak somewhere in my pants. if im working or outdoors and not just hanging around i have a leatherman wave on me too.
 
Off the job one: a Greg Thompson/Benchmade SOCP dagger or a CRKT neck knife.

On the job three: WKII Striker, Benchmade SOCP and Leatherman wave.

My rule of thumb has always been to have one large Utility knife, one small utility knife, One multi-tool, and ill occasionally throw a neck knife or Balisong into my EDC sicne there legal to carry here. I dont like to carry any designated self defense knife, but i believe any of my large utility folders could stand up to the task.

an example of this would be

Large utility: Kershaw Blur
Small utility: Kershaw Drone
Multitool: Juice s2
Bali: BM 51
small fixed: Izula
 
Wow, today I just realised I had 6 on my person...I was wearing my 5.11 pants so I was carrying the following: Manix 2 RF knife pocket, BF skyline LF knife pocket, Spec Elite Mini LR. I also had a Izula and Vic huntsman in my vest and a Vic classic on my keys.... I have a serious problem.
 
3 edc knife brouse blade silent soilder fixed or zt 0561or 0560 back up boker subcom or spyderco dragon fly and beater spyderco tenacious or rat 1
 
Most of the time I carry 4 to 6

Main blade= zt200 plain blade sometimes a benchmade 741 onslaught or both one in each pocket
Secondary= piranha fingerling
Multitool = gerber suspension
apple peeler =sog micron but I lost it Iam trying to find it
Last ditch = cardsharp folding credit card knife
Sometimes = a fix blade of some kind

Along with other things in my edc
 
On a daily basis I just have my CRKT Drifter on me which fits perfectly into that awkward coin pocket that jeans have that no one ever seems to use...but anyways, back on topic. Just one hahaha. xD
 
I usually have at least two on me. I always have a modern folder now of some kind, usually a Spyderco or Benchmade. And, I'll generally have a SAK of some variety. Every now and then I'll also carry a traditional slip joint. When I hunt I will always have a fixed blade of some kind, plus the modern folder and SAK.
 
A SOG PowerLock multi-tool (has two blades), a Leatherman Style CS multi-tool (has one blade), and a folder of some variety... so four blades...


When I say it out loud, it feels excessive. Whatever. lol
