Hey Omer!!
I love smaller blades and usually carry them with something larger!
Here's a few.

Remington peanut is a trim little package in the pocket, but a very capable cutter. Both the Boker pen knife and Remington peanut are 2 inch blades with a 1 1/2 inch secondary blade.

Sardinian resolza is a 2 1/2 inch blade, very light in the pocket. Rams horn handle feels great in hand. Handles day to day cutting well well.

True unsung hero of daily cutting, the Victorinox classic on keyring. Used for a lot of cutting, snipping, phillips screws, and whatever. It's always there on the keyring so I can't leave the house without it.

HAha!!! I know what you mean my friend!! Picked that one up on the Exchange recently!! It's been discontinued for some time.
It's a smaller blade ~ 3", but it fits the hand beautifully!!
I'm kind of sick of black G-10 and satin finishes, I have tons!

There are also some GREAT smaller autos!
This is the one I have and it is an extremely tough little performer!! Flies open very hard, s35vn blade and locks up tight as a drum!
It's cute, but gets the job done!!

That's a Christy knife, from the Christy Knife Company, Freemont Ohio. They are a small family company that has been making the Christy knife since the 1930's. Very very handy little cutter, and has replaceable blades. Slides out from handle and was maybe the first one hand knife of the 20th century. Quite a unknown history, with them being sold in army PX's and Navy exchanges during WW2, used by quite a few service men in the war.

Company now run by Hal Christy, who took over when his father passed, who had taken over when HIS father passed on. A true small family operation struggling to stay in the game in the 21st century. Every knife nut should buy one just to support a true piece of cutlery history.
 
For EDC I prefer blades 2½" or less.

I no longer carry a "tactical" knife, but when I did those averaged a 4" blade.
 
I often carry my Spyderco Manbugs. I have a G10 and a Superblue. I have gotten scared of carrying the G10 because the price has gone out of sight! Still, these are the best small blades I have ever found. I also carry SAK Classics and Cadets.
 
I like them small.... or just 4 inch folders now a days. I have had a small SAK or H1 Ladybug on my key chain for years now. Just started carrying folders with a 4+ inch blade though. You know the rule though: two is one and one is none.
 
Yes, I do. Most days, I carry a small Sebenza or G-10 Manbug.
