    Hey guys! ^_^

    So if you saw my other threads, yes, my Buck 112 arrived! It is beautiful. Very well oiled, which has been a bit messy. But here it is, next to my Victorinox SAK Explorer, and I have to admit, it was a bit painful getting the 2nd shot of the Explorer... *doesn't include picture of bloody finger and broken thumb nails so as not to seem weak*

    So, officially my two favorite EDC knives. Do you have two, or only one perhaps, that are/is your absolute favorite thing to have on you always? The Explorer's scissors are so useful, almost everyday.

    Cheers!

    This old thing is almost always in my pocket. I've carried other stuff in its stead: GECs, Case, Lsatherman, etc. Always find myself missing the Cadet.

    Nice T.L.E Sharp! ^_^ I've heard the Cadet's a good one. I forget all of its functions, though?

    Just looked it up - looks like 8 functions (+ key ring). It's got a nail file, which is the one thing I miss on my Explorer for sure.

    I love rotating through my collection based on the schedule or task for the day. For example, today is beach day so the Spyderco Pacific Salt and Spyderco H1 Ladybug come with me. In truck is a carbon Mora companion, Tramontina 12 inch machete, Condor Hudson Bay, and Condor Greenland Axe. In my “man bag” is first aid, leatherman charge, SAK climber, fisher brass space pen, etc.

    It’s better to have and not need than to need and not have. My family thinks I’m crazy hahahaha!

    That's a great collection, Molokai Rider!! ^_^ I REALLY want to get myself a blue Mora Companion. They are literally $13, but I'm pretty broke from getting the 112 haha! Someday. :] <3

    My two absolute favorites,
    today,
    are :
    The Brand Zinker, Boker Urban Trapper with drilled titanium, a frame lock, VG-10 steel.
    and
    My brand new Spyderco Ladybug, dark green FRN handle in ZDP-189
    The large knife in my shirt pocket and the little 'n in my pocket.
    a brilliant pair . . . for a day off.

    IMG_5132.jpg

    Come Monday my all time favorite pair will be the Syderco Para2 in natural G10 and M4 steel and the Ladybug.
    (before that I was carrying the Buck 110 LT in my pocket (not in the pouch) but it collides with the Ladybug. Maybe I will use the belt pouch . . .
    How do you carry your 110 ?

    Nice Wowbagger! :]

    I'm currently carrying my 112 in my pocket, but when I get my 110 I'm planning on putting it in my bag. It's a bit large for the jeans girls have to wear, hehe. ^_^

    The Urban is great. One of my most carried knives. It's so light and unobtrusive.

    Always have a Victorinox Cadet clipped to my pocket (TEC), typically accompanied by a Sebenza 21 or PM2.

    Hi Sparkly - welcome!

    Hard to pick two favorites from my collection as I like them all. The two that get used the most are a SAK (not sure about the actual model) and Spyderco Delica 4 zdp-189.

    The two that get flipped/fondled the most are ZT 0562 with custom cf scale and titanium hardware, and Spyderco PM2 with DLC S30v steel and digicam g10 scales.

    I rotate what I carry. Lately has been my ZT 0393 or a Benchmade 808 Loco if I’m feeling something more beastly. But if I had to name a favorite, it would be my ZT 0801ti, hands down. I had to force myself to rotate from that one. Also have one of various Case Trappers on my belt.

    Really enjoying these two lately. The Pioneer that my wife/kids gave me is in my pocket everyday.

    I like ' em all and I switch ' em up weekly, so how about this.
    Sure, I could easily call these two my favorites if you twisted my arm.

    My EDC rotation contains 4 versions of the PM2 so that is my #1, and 4 versions of the Manix 2 so that is my #2.

    Classic duo, and welcome to BF.

    I rotate through 8 or 9 different folders for various reasons, but these 2 are my favorites.
