What are your top 5 EDCs??

I'll play.

Stayglow Classic - keyring
Alox Cadet - work, EDC, travel
Sage 2 - usually off work, clips to rf pocket of shorts or jeans
Small 21 Silver Dog Paws - CRK sheath rf pocket of jeans, rides deep enough to satisfy my fear of losing it
Para 2 - hiking

This has me thinking that I don't carry a GEC 15 nearly enough...soon to be remedied, thanks.

Top 5 lately:
(1) Victorinox Adventurer
(2) ZT 0770CF
(3) Spyderco Native 5
(4) Hen & Rooster Small Stockman
(5) Benchmade Mini Barrage

The last two change quite a bit. The Benchmade is new. Been carrying the little Stockman just to get used to a really small Slippie. Sometimes I carry the Kiwi 4 also.
 
PM2
ZT 0450 (so light and small for a good sized blade)
Mini Recon 1
Delica
Chaparral

Can't bring myself to EDC a Sebenza, and maybe the Sage 5 will fight into the top 5 once it's released

2. Strider SNG
3. Large sebenza 21
4. ZT 0450
5. Benchmade 940
 
Custom Bud Nealy Aikuchi, made back in the late 80s when he went full time. It's been an edc for 30+ years and I've used it for everything from scrapin' gaskets off a flange to makin' kindlin' to start a fire in the weeds. In fact it's been used for everything other than what I bought it for, self defense. I know it's way more capable than just for SD but it's always there for that

1911 Union Knifeworks Moose, I use this as my box cutter, work knife, I got it and it was rusted shut, when I finally got it opened one of the blades were broken, I knew nothing about the knife other than it cleaned up knice and it was tight with walk and talk of a custom slipjoint so I reground the broken blade into a more usable shape and used the heck outta it. About 5 or 6 years ago because of the internet I was able to identify the age and origin of the knife. Even knowing the rarity of this knife, the company was in business for only a year in 1911 it made this knife so well it'll last another 100 years and output 80% of the modern knives out there.

Lone Wolf/Loveless City Knife, a modern slip joint made very well and it's non offensive. This is my office knife for light duty, opening mail/boxes, cutting up food instead of usin' the dull steak knives they give you in the restaurant.

I always have a Sebenza on me for a one hand opener with a lock, can't beat it bar none the best production knife out there. It does all the things the other knives do and if I only can have one that would be it. I'm lucky enough through the generosity of others and by trading to have three to pick from a large and two small, one for every occasion. I won't say any more, you either agree and understand or you don't, I'm not here to convince you to change if your mind is made up. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

Finally for those special occasions when I want a little man jewelry I have my William Henry T11-P Pearl Lancet. This was from Matt Conable's initial series of knives. This is my Sunday go to meetin' knife, carried at weddings, funerals any special occasion where I wear a suit. (yeah I've worn suits)
