In the past I would buy knives that caught my fancy but lately I sort of figured out what I want in an EDC knife. I did some soul searching and I figured out what I really wanted in a knife. I work in an office environment and I wanted something classy but I could also use to actually cut stuff. Breaking down cardboard boxes, cutting cheese and other general use sort of tasks. For me a small lockback with a good stainless steel blade is what would really serve me well. At home I have a pair of garage knives that can do the big and messy jobs so my EDC doesn't need to do that stuff at home. Right tool for the job as they say. I ended up with a small Buck lockback out of the Buck Custom Shop. I think I have stopped buying knives.
