What are your most used folders?

Since last summer, my Spyderco Byrd Meadowlark has been averaging about 7 cuts of baling twine per day (we only have 26 adult sheep now). But the Meadowlark had an exciting day today, because it happened to be the only knife I was carrying. It got to cut the amniotic sac off a newborn lamb, cut some 1/4 to 3/8 inch roots out of the grave I was digging, trim some 6 foot long raspberry vines out of the tail of one of the guard dogs, open a new jug of Triclopyr to kill fireweed, and open some ebay packages for my wife. I switch around the other knives too often for them to rack up as much use as the Meadowlark.

I agree with all but the comfy in hand, and the back lock can be hard to disengage with wet hands.
Hence a custom @davidmary fixed blade modeled on the Tuff Lite, is on it's way to me.

: )
We willl need some pics when that comes in!
 
I usually carry pair of folders, the one for heavier work are rotated about every other week,
the one for just every day cutting of boxes and tape I rotate not so often.
Left side, top to bottom are what I usually use for heavier stuff,
the one on the right I just carry with me because I can and I like to have more knives in my pockets.
I miss my "working" tanto Griptilian but it enjoys retirement now... 😂

Few others that seen hard use and I retired.
The GB1 is unbelievable knife but I broke the tip of it, fixed it, cleaned it and set aside, same with the Grip, and the laminate Manix2.
I did fix the Manix and gave it away to a good friend who needed reliable knife, he still happily using it to this day.

For years it was my trusty Al Mar Sere 2K. Everybody on here’s seen that thing so I won’t bother with pics. Lately it’s been this one, by a lot.

Got a really nice bugout recently in a trade so I’ve been working it in. It feels tiny (big hands and I’m used to the Adamas) but capable.
