Show me your EDC Case knives!

Here's the whole gang! (they are few but proud)

Just got this Back Pocket knife about a week ago. Since then, I've been carrying it in on my belt in a KSF Clovis pouch (thing just disappears underneath an untucked shirt). It's actually way more knife than I need on a daily basis, but I just like the dang thing so much I want it with me.

This Pocket Worn Red Bone Barlow has seen a lot of pocket time as well. It was my EDC for a good while. Since my BP is carried on the belt, I've been tossing this one in my pocket too, though the BP has been getting used more.

what did I do with my peanut today? sharpened it lightly on the 3000 grit Japanese water stone, then stropped on a scrap of deerskin, oiled the scales with Olive Oil, opened some mail, cut up some apple pie and some pecan pie

Regardless of whatever other knife I'm carrying, this peanut always rides in one of my front pockets. I've picked up a few other Case knives recently but none of them have made it to EDC status yet. Some are just fancier handled peanuts but I've added a couple of Medium Jacks, Stockman, and a single bladed trapper.
But this peanut has seen the lion share of carry so far.

Here's what I've picked up so far this year. I was too lazy to take them out of the boxes when the pic was taken.

Thanks John

This one is in my pocket today: a 3 7/8", CV bladed, yeller stockman.

Today I took this one to the local BBQ fest. It sliced brisket like a laser.

Nice slimline John. I recently acquired one with a 1998 date, but the CV blades look brand new and unused. I am hoping, if August becomes trapper month for the TOTM, that mine will develop a nice patina such as yours has.
 
John G- Your picks of the slimline inspired me to pick up one for myself and I am glad I did. Thanks!

Thanks, Doug! I find it to be a great knife for food. The blade is long and thin, so it's perfect for slicing up a sub, or peeling an apple. That patina is purely from food prep. Limes, apples, BBQ, you name it! :D

Nice. :) Enjoy it!
 
Occasionally I carry this one. Case Rogers Bone, Damascus Steel, Lockback knife. The blade is Case 512 layer Damascus Steel. The tang is stamped Case XX USA with 1-Dot dating this knife as a 1989 issue and the pattern number ROG61405L D. This particular pattern was a new pattern introduced by Case in 1989 and sold by them in 1989 and 1990.

With the addition of today's arrival, the 6232 jack (just to the left of the slimline trapper), I thought I should update my Case family picture.
