I ask... as over the last few weeks my collection has umm grown 
I have now got a decent(ish) size of Sogs... but I live in the UK too... which makes it *really* hard to carry any of them. At the moment I use a Buck Tempest ATS34 as my everyday knife. Which even that to be honest would be difficult to explain the the police should I be searched. The area that I live in is not rough but is not perfect either. And in the main the thugs are nothing but youngish kids... but they are youngish kids carrying stanley knives at a minimum.
Thing is that in the US you guys have more realistic laws as regards to carrying knives.. in the UK its goofed up. Seems that the police dont worry about searching a gang of kids... but they will search a single guy walking out at night (ie ME).
Dont get me wrong... I am a collector more than anything.. I have over 50 knives now.. some rare.. some not. Some totally illegal in the UK. I am not a Rambo (all my sogs are way better than his POS
)
But I am more than happy to buy another knife that you guys reccomend.. not for show.. but to use as a EDC...any suggestions?
