This one has seen MANY outings this year. Here is my 9 year old cleaning up a stick with it for making 'smores. It is a Spyderco Salt 1...in spite of what some say, it holds an edge quite well while doing this sort of work.

Here is a better look from today's outing:

I usually have a one-hander clipped into my pocket and a traditional in my other pocket. It has varied a lot over the years, but this year it has been these. For car camping/dayhikes it is the Vantage Pro, for backpacking it has been the Mayo

For car camping/dayhikes I have carried the GEC ebony #73

And for backpacking it has been the Queen #9 carved stag bone in the middle here:

I like carrying a folder in the woods. I use a folder daily so I also use one in the woods. I find it easier and more comfortable than having a sheath knife on my belt. I always have a Vic Huntsman in my pack and a one hander in my pocket. It's usually some sort of Spyderco and for the past year it's been my orange Military:). I just made this one for myself. It's heavy but it's BIG. I'm not yet sure if it will replace my Military for hiking or backpacking because of the weight but I may get used to it. I do plan to use it for EDC.

Thats nice work Ray!

I would take a picture of mine, but I would have to take it outta my pocket! Its my VIC FARMER, and I dont leave home without it...unless I am feeling crazy and carry one of my Opinels.
 
This is the one I'm packin' in the woods these days. Love the heavy saw on this one.
