What do you carry when you don't carry a Spyderco?

If I don't have a Spyderco in my pocket, it doesn't feel right.
 
If it is a folder it is a Spyderco. My fixed blades are mostly Fiddleback forge custom knives (Warmly recommended btw)
 
As of the last few years I carry Spyderco. Once in a blue moon a Benchmade Ritter mini Griptilian. I used to collect Benchmade in the mid to late 90's got a bunch of them. But 99.9% of the time I carry Spyderco now. I really enjoy the ergonomics of Spyderco's design.
 
For Office EDC, a Kershaw OD2.

For non-Office EDC, the Kershaw Skyline was a mainstay of my rotation until an increasing assortment of Delicas and Natives finally bannished the Skyline to storage.
 
fwiw, IF... Spyderco came out with a chisel ground folder, sprint run, I could retire my HD7.
 
Usually one of these a Rough Rider half whittler (love it), it kicked the GB Air out of my pocket. New acquisition slippie


I rotate a few others as I don't have too many knives. But I really dig the above knives. I carry one or the other now about 5 days a week. They take care of most of my needs for regular everyday stuff.
 
if im not carrying a spyderco, then that means im usually asleep or taking a shower lol

Then I think it's time for you to acquire a Spyderco ARK for those times. Then you'll be covered 24/7. ;)

I've been tempted to start showering with the ARK just for a fun experiment. Not that I am concerned about being accosted in the shower, my wife knows that I addemately encourage it. :D I'm pretty sure the H1 would have no problem with rust/corrosion, but I'm wondering about how the rivets/gromets in the sheath will fare. It's been touted as a 24/7 military neck knife, especially for those times when you would have absolutely nothing (showers etc.), and really play up the "rust proof" H1 blade. But say nothing about how the specially made sheath would fair in the same environment. I think that little knife is pretty genius, but it's really no good without that sheath.

So there you have it.....the Spyderco for when you're not carrying your regular Spyderco.
 
Sebenza's(Regulars and Classics), Moki Fish Owl, Victorinox Cadet, Fallkniven TK4, various slipjoints, for the most part.
I always have a Sebenza or Spyderco on me, and one of the others goes in another pocket.
 
99% of the time is some sort of Spyderco. Sometimes a Benchmade Hk 14716, CRK small 2000 Classic Sebenza or a Kershaw Blur s30v. Love my Spydercos but a little variety is nice.
 
Sold all my other knives. I have some CRKT's but those were mostly purchased before I caught the bug. Now everything in my pocket has a Spydie-hole.
 
I love Spyderco, but I am presently carrying my Southard AVO. I have had three Spyderco Southards, and they are so nice...that I thought I would try out the Brad Southard AVO midtech. I really like it.
But, I'm not selling my gorgeous all-black NIB Spyderco Southard...
