How many per day?

3. Sometimes 4 when I feel like it
Spyderco Tenacious
Ka-Bar Becker BK-11
Victorinox Adventurer
And sometimes, when I am either on or off duty (I'm a cop) I carry a Ka-Bar 1211 inside the waistband, sometimes concealed, sometimes not. And I also carry a Glock 17.
 
two sometimes three always my leatherman juice and some type of folder. Ill carry a small fixed blade if I have a spyderco with a thin tip and i know i might have to pry or stab into something hard
 
Majority of the time, 2. One is a user, and one is kept for food... People usually are a bit taken aback when I take out my own knife to cut up a steak or whatever, but when they realize that my knife is actually cutting the meat and not tearing it, they ask to borrow it to see for themselves...
 
Usually just one at work, because I carry a Surefire L1 digital flashlight clipped in my other pocket. We had the country Singer Charlie Daniels and crew playing golf at our course today, so I was cutting cups in the dark for two hours. It doesn't leave much room for another blade.
 
Four Knives:
Main Blade (right front pocket), Back up Blade (left back pocket), Sheeple blade (fob/watch/coin pocket [whatever you call it]), and small key chain knife on my keys

And

Two MultiTools:
Leatherman Juice/Wingman (back right pocket), Victorinox Swiss Card in my wallet
 
I've been trying lots of different knives out lately, and have been carrying some off and on. A lot roll around with me. My primary knife is a black alox Victorinox pioneer. I also carry a Case peanut sometimes, for discreet carry. One handed openers have rotated among Spydercos; Bob T slipit, Manix 2 FFG, Paramilitary 2 and Native 5. Slipjoints have been fighting for supremacy over one handed folders. Queen Dan Burke small barlow, Schatt and Morgan Heritage series single spear blade with a long nail pull, Case swayback jack, or Case swayback gent. Yep, I had ALL of the knives mentioned in this post in my pockets when I went out to start my truck up this morning.
 
Many interesting carry combinations in this thread. Each person has his own preferences. I carry a Mora bushcraft triflex and a Buck Mayo TNT in my fanny pack. Both are very light.

I don't carry a knife for loaning out because in my experience, when people specifically ask for your 'cheapo knife', you can bet nine times out of ten what they have in mind is anything but cutting stuff.
 
Until I recently became a "knife guy", just one (unless I forgot it). Now though...several. For sure a modern folder, plus a small pocket knife, and recently even something on my belt if I'm dressed so I can conceal it. And with two sets of keys, wallet, cell phone, pocket change, I really run out of pocket space in jeans - which is what I usually wear. Cargo pants are better.

And then there is other stuff for self protection...


So how do you guys also include a Leatherman??
 
As many as I want to. Why? Well, I don't always do much work outside of work and I've got seven pockets in my jeans.

I usually have my Case large sodbuster in my left-side cargo pocket because I like it to cut the baling twine on hay. Case doesn't put a liner lock on their sodbuster which feels a lot nicer in my hand. If I take up my Opinel 8 it goes in that cargo pocket too.

Left-side front pants pocket usually has a medium stockman. Right now the one I got from Jamppa in a give-away. I really like the feel of it and he filed the kick a little so the sheepsfoot fits a little lower and has a nicer profile.

Eisenhower in my watch fob pocket. Nice little general purpose knife that fits my hand better than a peanut or my 108 OT.

Usually a Pioneer Harvester in the right-side front pants pocket because I like to have a scout knife type of knife with me and I happen to like that one right now. Kinda reminds me of my Camp King that was my first pocket knife, many years ago.

In the right-side cargo pocket I usually have a Rough Rider canoe. I like the pattern and I haven't purchased a Queen or Case replacement to see if its truely a step up in quality.

I usually do not put a knife in my right rear pocket as that's where my creds go.

My left rear pocket is usually empty too but I've been known to pack around a AG Russel's Woodswalker in the pocket sheath or a Kerry Hampton 4.25" Bose pattern back pocket.

If I'm actually planning on doing some work where I think I might lose stuff out of my pocket or not want a lot of stuff in my pockets I'll probably put on a fixed blade and pick the one knife I think will best suit what I'm planning to do that day. Probably the Pioneer Harvester as it seems pretty rugged or just the sodbuster or even my Grandad's TL-29 all good all purpose pocket knives. At least for what I do...

On Sundays, if I don't wear my cargo pants, I will probably just have my Eisenhower and I will probably swap out the Harvester for a Farmer or my Pruner.

Of course I should also mention that I almost always have a Leatherman Supertool on my right hip and a Buck 110 on my left hip.

Yep, I'm a knife knut.
 
Usually two. A Wenger SI for the tools (I use the can opener quite a bit for eating on the go) and a 3" locking blade, usually one of my Delicas. If I can't decide what to carry I will carry three blades.
 
I carry one good sized folder 3.5 inches or more and a sak spartan at all times. I
might carry an izula or something like it if im feeling crazy haha.
 
Case Damascus Peanut,Sheathed Vic Climber,Vic Rambler(keychain),and a LM Blast or Vic Spirit X in my lunch bag.I use that set-up almost daily.Oh,and a serrated Spyderco Rescue in my jacket pocket,you never know.:)
 
Usually 2, a tactical folder(just to feel more secure) and a smaller slipjoint for more detailed work or if i end up going somewhere were a larger knife might unsettle people(day care and what not).
i also keep a browning fixed blade between the passenger seat and the console of the truck(again, just to feel more secure).
 
Three most of the time.
A little neck knife with a 3/4" blade for opening boxes and cutting paper or anytime I need a sheeple friendly knife, as 3.5" fixed blade in my right front pocket for more demanding or abusive tasks and a 3.5" folder clipped in the pencil pocket on my right leg that stays clean and sharp for cutting food.

Once in a while I'll clip a 4" folder in my back pocket just for fun.

If I'm out in the woods I have a monster chopper with an 18" blade that hangs off my belt on the left side.
 
Lately its been TWO...A little Buck solo (left front pocket) and a S&W assisted opener for the boogie man (right rear pocket)...

Almost always two, sometimes three. I will almost always have a large one-hand folder, and a smaller slippie on me. But sometimes I will have another large folder of some kind in my back pocket or the tool pocket of my pants, if my pants have a tool pocket.

Just 1, and pretty much the same one for 40 years till I broke it. It did everything I wanted it to do. Still open a knife probably 6 or more times every day. Works for me!
