My current favorite is the Victorinox Adventurer.

The Wenger Snap-Shackle. I think its out of production now but i'd like to find another. It has all the tools i need (Phillips screwdriver and corkscrew -hard to find both on one SAK sometimes), plus it has a carabiner style clip that folds out.
 
Alox Farmer or Soldier. I don't like how the lanyard hole cuts into the back of my hand on the Farmer, but that saw is very handy.
 
Victorinox Pioneer Rancher. I love the Pruner bade. It's great for cardboard and opening packages! The reamer is top-notch also. This coupled with the Vic Spitit is a perfect EDC for me.
 
My Stayglow Explorer. Small enough that I forget that it's in my back pocket next to my wallet, yet enough tools to handle most anything that I normally worry about.

My favorite Sak is the Vic Cadet. Smaller and easier in the pocket then the already comfortable Soldier/SI, and I LOVE the 84MM blade. The small screwdriver on the can opener twisted up on me, so I filed it away, and now have a round tipped Can opener. I've kind've angled the edge on the can opener tip, so that it's not so much a screw driver but a chisel. I sharpened the tip of the file, so it's more of a reamer, and I've ground down the lanyard ring since it cut into my hand when doing any heavy cutting. It is now gone. I've basically customized my Cadet to meet my needs, which makes it MINE!! Probably no other one exactly like it. I love this little guy.
 
For now... my favorite(s) are:

My Vic Alumnus, riding in my left front pants pocket.

My Vic Rogue, riding on my key chain.

However, my "favorites" change from time to time.

My favorites are always changing... I love my Deluxe Tinker and Skipper. I use my Wenger Swiss Clipper all the time. But right now I have to say that my favorite is my carbon fiber OHT.

Cybertool 34, emerald scales (got the scales from Rich, aka Nuts4Knives, as he was kind enough to sell me a pair of these limited edition scales he had at that moment)
I keep it on me almost all the time now (in the velcro pouch of my Fatboy Versipack)
