Tradtional Knife You Have Continuously Carried Longest

I always lose my knives. Seldom does one last pass a year. But I carried Three bladed Old Timers for ten years straight.
 
I can't seem to keep one slippie only as an EDC. I seem to change my mind too often, but I have probably carried my Case/Bose Dogleg Jack the most in the past yr or so.
 
As a kid I carried a Case 3318 for several years as well as a Buck 110 for close to ten. These days I switch around some with a small hand full getting the most pocket time.
Since the 3rd week of August I have carried a Camillius made Buck 303.

I've also had an Alox Vic Classic on my keychain for a while and for the foreseeable future. It's always just for backup though. I like to use all my knives :)
 
A camillus made barlow in sawcut delrin. I had it from 9 years old to 19, having it confiscated when arriving at boot camp.

I've had a thing for Sawcut delrin carbon steel barlows since then. Pretty much all barlows in fact, especially carbon steel ones. My "new" carry barlow is a remington green camillus made barlow, carbon steel of course, circa late 80's?

I was pretty poor then, starting out my state career and the "remington" knife was expensive to me compared to the "imperial Ireland" barlows in carbon steel that were available for under $5 just about everywhere. ( I got more than a few at Ace hardware, the most expensive knife in their display of imperials was $6.99 for a scout type knife)

I still have most of these knives, still sharp enough to dry shave with. I caught the Spyderco bug in 92 with the FRN Endura, but have began to come back to traditional slip joint folders starting a few years ago. My current favorites are GEC Northfield #23 liner lock 4.5" Spiral Buffalo horn, and Queen D2 line, Cocobolo ( when possible) 5.25" Folding hunter, or 4.5 " Mountain man.
 
I've only just got into slippies like 3months ago, so a Case medium stockman for 2months lol.
 
I carried this Marble's whittler during several years of the late '90's and into the 2000's. For a few years I got away from collecting knives so I just carried my favorite one. Then I came to my senses and started hoarding again so I was rotating slipjoints all the time.
 
I carried a 33 OT for about 8 years, the longest I carried one by far. Now I have a SAK Executive squirreled away in my desk at work that goes into my pocket as soon as I get there. Been doing this for over a year. We are not allowed to carry "WEAPONS" at work so it is what I got through the guards on my key chain.:rolleyes:

A Buck 303 in one form or another. One Scharde contract 303 the longest and most often. (440c)

300Bucks
 
Sadly, my longest consistent carry is a Spyderco, with a record of about 10 or 11 months. My second longest, a Buck 371, clocked in at about 3 months. I suffer from knife infidelity.

thank you every one for the great input
 
I have an older Boker stockman that I've been carrying for the last 7 or so months. It's not the best looking of what I own, but it takes and holds an edge well and shows a lot of character.
 
I have been carrying a benchmade 710hssr for 8 years and just got into slippies so ill take you up on the challenge I have a giant eye brand stockman on the way and i don't plan on going back to the plastics!

I've carried a Case medium stockman for the last 6 years. Before that a Schrade stockman and an Uncle Henry Bear Paw for about 20 years.
 
I carried a Carl Schlieper German eye brand stag copperhead for 20 yrs. and a spyderco/Terzuola Starmate for 9 yyrs. Both have been "retired". I now carry a Terzuola ACTF, satin plain edge , with the g-10 scales.

I only started carrying a traditional knife three years ago, and I've been EDCing my Case Bermuda green swayback since it first came out, so about two years now.
 
Camillus TL-29 almost 3 years while in Iraq. Normally kept it in a Spec Ops organizer with a spare Inova X1 in a cargo pocket.
