What knife does your significant other carry? My wife doesn't carry her knife on her person, but she does use her knife and keeps it in the box it originally came with. Inside the box it rests, on her desk. She does in fact use it quite a lot, it's a cheap little Bug I think or Grasshopper from Spyderco. I've gotten her better knives but she prefers this one for some reason.

I think my wife usually carries 4 knives in her purse. When we are out and about, she prefers to use one of my mine because I can draw it in seconds but it would take her 5 minutes to find a knife at the bottom of her purse. I would guess the ones in her purse include a small blue SAK, a Kershaw Shuffle with a teal handle, and a Nagao Kanekoma Higo no Kami with a teal handle in a plastic bag to keep it from getting wet.

When she is out without me, she often carries an MKM Mikro neck knife, because it does not get lost in her purse.

At home she uses a Fantasticar folding utility knife, and a semi-custom fixed blade that I gave her. There are other knives scattered around.

She recently asked me to sharpen a small blue slip joint with 3 blades. I do not know the brand, but the main blade has a small etching of a buck. The main blade is only 5/16 of an inch wide, which is too small for my TSProf. I would not want to free-hand it because I cannot even see the bevel without a magnifier. I am trying to figure out how to use the magnetic tables with a Hapstone or the new Work Sharp, but that is not going real well.
 
My best gal has a few that she likes but only one I would consider her EDC.

Small Micarta 21- almost always on her dresser

Knife bright GEC 14-in her pocket if she has on jeans ( rare as she’s a dress girl)

Custom Prison Pink S30V Leatherman Charge Ti- her always in her bag knife. I get a text thanking me for it probably 3 time a week for the last 7 years since I gifted it to her.
 
My Spouse usually carries one of three knives.

The most common is a modified ZT 0566 with a tumbled blade, an Anso textured micarta scale and a 0.308 over-travel stop. She beats the crap out of that knife. I have to pry it out of her hands twice a year to take it apart and clean up the torsion bar.

When she’s dressing it up a little she grabs her small 21 with striped plantan wood that was built on her birthday.

In her junk bowl she keeps the Kizer Dorado that she stole from me years ago. I still miss that knife.

It’s ok though; she helped me get into this addiction by giving me some of my first, true, good knives many years ago.
