New Terminology: Regular Carry Rotation

[gooeytek]

I EDC a knife. That means a knife is part of my everyday carry. To me, it doesn't have to mean a particular knife. I don't wear the same clothes everyday, and I don't go to the same places everyday. I might not even use the same car everyday. So why should I have the same knife everyday?

The best part of this thread is everyone taking it seriously.

We already had this out in the Traditionals forum and came up with QK. Quotidian Knife.

Edc is a word, I say it all the time.

Rcr makes sense. pronounced arce / ee / ar

Neither of those are pronounceable words.

Indeed. George Carlin had a good bit about that. Most of his stuff was great.

I love all his stuff.

 

[sabre cat]

None of these are acronyms. Acronyms spell out a pronounceable word, like SCUBA or NATO.

These are all just initialisms.

You Sir, are 100% correct.

However, many writers and publishers consider them the same. I doubt if most people know if there is a difference.

As my fellows have stated, 'tis a good idea..... So say we all!

Now, thread needs moar pics!

 

[Chris "Anagarika"]

I simply carry 3 knives or 5 as EDCs

 

[Sonnydaze]

And if no one else ever uses it, it'll enable me to be more confusing in my communications.

It confused me already. No offense, sir. I'll stick with EDC; have no trouble with it.

 

[RedLynx]

I like your idea better than EDC

Also, smokeeater's term, CCK- current carry knife

This could also be Concealed Carry Knife. I mean most folders are by default but, still.

 

[The Aflac Duck]

It's a rare case when someone actually "EDC's" a knife for 3+ years. I'd say 95% of us phase out our knives within 6 months or less.

Just like RCR, it's a phase

I've recently added another Military and Sebenza to my RCR.

Good choices.
A ZT 0801 went into my RCR, and it's been a nice surprise how well it does in that role.
One of those knives that feels better in the hand than I thought looking at it on a screen.
I thought the handle looked funky, but it actually curves in all the right places. :thumbup:

The 0801 is such a great knife. Functions well and looks good doing it!

I also like the term "user" it's just one more letter, and it says everything people need to know. I don't keep it on a pillow in a safe, I use this one.

It sure does, and it's not even too big.
I generally go for slightly bigger knives, but it seems to...act bigger than it is, for want of a better term.
Definitely well-designed.

Also good.
