On the keychain, a Spyderco Ladybug and a Leatherman Squirt S4.

In the pocket, either my Victorinox Rucksack or my Spyderco Endura. If I could convince those two to mate and breed, their hybrid offspring would be the ideal EDC IMHO and YMMV. Blade and scales off the Endura, and the Rucksack's minimalist yet ideal-for-the-outdoors package of tools... It'd be perfect :p.
 
Spyderco Manix
Spyderco Ronin
Busse Satin Jack Tac
Busse Assault Shaker
Victorinox Soldier (for bottle opener)

Tomorrow a great new EDC should arrive- Busse Game Warden LE.
 
Damn good question.

Leatherman Charge
Al Mar Shrike
Benchmade Rukus

Every day:
Spyderco Yojimbo -rear right pocket
Spyderco Cricket PE-front right pocket
Spyderco Delica 3 CE -rear left pocket
Wenger EVO 10 -front left pocket

When permissible:
Spyderco Ronin
 
Okapi Sailor's Knife
Victorinox Gardener
Victorinox Small Tinker
Victorinox Cybertool 34
Once in a while... Victorinox Classic

The Tinker was carried for years. The Cybertool mostly over the last 5 years. The Okapi has lots of character, feels good and carries easy. The Gardener is just classy and minimalist. And cuts like a razor.
 
mine are as follows,

1) strider SnG gen VI w/black G10/gigicam finish

2) emerson specwar CQC8 zero bevel grind blade

3) spyderco Ti ATR plain edge

4) pat crawford perfigo

5) emerson SOCFK tanto
 
Right at the moment-
SAK Classic/LED light on keychain
SAK OH Trekker
Buck Tempest
Buck Juno

Sometimes on the motorcycle---Buck 102 Woodsman

Usually within reach---but not always
Ruger P95---and 2 extra mags
Classic Leatherman
Wenger Multi-tool
Buck 119 Special
Spyderco Delica

Need to send back my Kershaw POS---spent big bucks on the thing----clip started shifting in about 3 weeks----screws for the clip are stripped---put it back in the box it came in---and its been there for 5 or 6 years now---I spent over $100 for it back then and soured me on ever buying another Kershaw junker. Waste of money.
 
Have to agree with Stevekt That Victorinox Spartan is a great knife. Did everything I wanted while camping in Alaska, Chopping veg for the pot, opening tins, spreading butter and slicing cheese and opening wine and beer. It is like nothing in your pocket, it is the perfect swiss army in my veiw because of the lack of size and bulk.

While I was out there I bought some real big badboys, but that Vic has earned my respect.
 
In no special order:

BM Mini Grip in D2
Spyderco Caly Jr in ZDP
Spyderco KOPA in Black Micarta
Spyderco Viele II
Kershaw Nakamura
 
My latest EDC rotation has included the following:

Spyderco Chinook
Spyderco Manix
Tom Krein TK3
Spyderco Endura Wave
Leatherman Wave

I always carry the Wave, and 1 or 2 other knives.
 
In no particular order:
Spyderco Manix
Ritter Mini Grip M2 steel
Al Mar Sere 2000
Victoronix Swisschamp
Spyderco Waved Endura
