I was just wondering if any of you carried just one modern folder for the entire year. I don't seem to be able to stick to one knife that long. I have had a Vic Small Tinker in my pocket everyday, but the modern folder keeps changing. But there were three that I carried more than others.

3rd Place was the Benchmade 710
2nd Place was the ZT 0566, but it may take over first place because it was recently purchased
And 1st Place was a Spyderco Stretch zdp-189.

For the coming year I'm going to try to find one knife and stick to it! Yeah, right! Wish me luck.
 
My ZT 0350 held the title longest, but my Utilitac II came later and has since dominated.
 
Not a full year. 7 months for a ZT0301, since the day I got it.

Don't see myself changing this year either.
 
This probably had the most pocket time...

Hmm, talktalk photo posting is turned off... :(

Was a PM2
 
Spyderco endura 4 followed by my composite D2 leek
But have a large insigno on the way so that might be a all year knife
 
Pocket time my spyderco ti Millie is winning.

Actual use, spyderco se pacific salt. (By a mile)
 
The only knives I carried almost every day was a Leatherman Juice and a CRKT Stockman. My Spyderco Military saw a lot of pocket time, though.
 
Yo2 - 3.5 months
Caly 3.5 - 2.5 months
Benchmade 710 - 2 months

(and about 4 months I couldn't carry a knife)
 
G-10 Endura 4 - last 5 years 10 months steady.

There was a time I tried to replace it for about 6 months, but nothing lasted the day, and the E4 was still with me during the trial periods. Tried about 1/2 dozen knives including several Spyderco and a Seb. I guess I'm hooked....

Nothing seemed to push this from my pocket this past year.

For the first third of the year, it was a Kershaw Zing-ZT 0550 pair. Then, over the summer, they got sucked into the void that is my house's clutter. For the fall and winter, it was the Spyderco UKPK-ZT 0801 pair. All throughout though, I had my Leatherman Juice S2. Really would like to find my Zing and 0550 though....
 
I generally try to rotate my knives out on a somewhat regular basis, but discovered that I enjoyed carrying my ZT 0350 more than some of the others. So I was carrying that for awhile until I picked up an Ontario Rat 1 on a whim in the green scales. I ended up carrying that knife for almost the rest of the year, until I got my hands on a Spyderco Endura 4, a replacement for one I'd lost a couple of years ago. That's been in my pocket ever since, and will most likely do for awhile.
 
1st place - Kershaw Knockout


2nd place - Gerber Firestorm


3rd place - Emerson Mini-Commander
 
I carried a Spyderco Sage 1 all year.

But... I bought a PM2 and BM 710 in late December so they are now getting the majority of pocket time (for now).
