Nooooo! Not this thread again! Well we have new members and lists from Year 1 is locked down in archive. Can't add to it. I also want to see what we have compared to the guys at www.ar15.com. They have a thread going and it is interesting to see what non-knifenuts carry.

Also our tastes change. My daily carry went from a Gerber LST Magnum to a Microtech Socom MA. From a Swiss Tool to a LM Wave. From a SeberTool M4 to a LM Micra. Still have my Ladybug though. Instead of switching from a Princeton Tech Blast to a Photon I just added the Photon.

So let me rundown my list again.

MT Socom MA
LM Wave
LM Micra
Spyderco Ladybug
PT Blast flashlight and
Red Photon I

What do you carry daily?

"A knifeless man is a lifeless man"
-Nordic proverb

 
I carry a CRKT Apache II, for the work I do and the things I cut everyday, I just can't beat it for the price. It has been one tough knife!

Always More......

 
Pat Crawford's Kasper Fighting Folder. Just got it two months ago, and if it's not in my pocket, I feel naked. Isn't that weird? I also have a Ladybug on my keychain, and a Bud Nealy M2 Pesh Kabz in my jacket pocket. Oh yeah, and a JSP Credit Card Blade in my wallet...

Ooops! Also wear a Livesay Ti Tiger around my neck.

It'll be interesting to answer this question six months from now, cause I KNOW I'll have a new knife on me somewhere!

Currently a Schrade Old Timer 61OT Slim Premium, which is kind of a thin 4in stockman, and sometimes an Opinel #8. Also a ToolLogic in the wallet.
 
Well I'm still experimenting.

90% of this year I carried an Endura full serrated with Hatch gloves and Orange Photon II attached to keys along w/ Dr Grip pens and such.

The last month or so, Spyderco Moran sometimes with the Endura.

This past week, TOPS Street Scalpel with Endura. Possibly to alternate w/ Moran and plain edge Endura.
 
REKAT Carnivore, Leatherman Wave, Emerson LaGriffe, Glock 17

A serrated Military and a plain edge Navigator for the hoi polloi.

I'm thinking about adding a 3" or so plain edge in the mix, but that's three knives. Carrying two knives seems reasonable, but three is getting into weirdo territory. ("Oh. You have three knives on you at all times? Are you preparing for the aliens or the freemasons?") Nevertheless, a three inch blade would be very handy.

I kick myself at least once a week for not carrying a small flashlight of some kind. Every time I try to work my keys in the dark, I say, "Idiot! Idiot! Carry a flashlight!" Then I just forget about it the next day.
 
I carry one Swiss Army Tinker, one Case Sodbuster Jr., one large Cold Steel Voyager,
also a Leatherman Wave, a Tool Logic credit card, and a Pelican aaa penlight. My reason for carrying all this? I dont know, I just like having diffrent tools for diffrent situations.
 
I was all over my REKAT pioneer with tanto blade until I got my Sebenza.

Well, if it's a jeans day then it's going to be a Para-Ordnance P-12 and an Emerson Commander.
If it's more of a dress up day , then it's an HK P-7 and my Sebenza.
In my vehicle I always have my Hobbit Warrior, Gerber Multi-Tool, a SAK and usually a second handgun.

I like neck knives! I either carry my Lynn Griffith Sniper or my new Small Tanto (needs name).
Folders....M2 AFCK or M2 Sryker. Yesterday after a long wheeling and dealing session at my local cutlery store and KNIFE KNUT hangout, I wound up with a brand new Kershaw Ricochet! It has the Ken Onion Speed Safe mechanism. VERY nicely ground blade, after a little adjustment the mechanism works great with no blade play. I can't stop flicking it and will be carrying it for a while! OH and the best part, CPM440V Steel.....
Fixed blade: One of my Spit finger grip, Tacticals in a high ride, Kydex hip sheath seems to be always on my belt!

Well, let's see. Today I have a knife that I don't hear much about. It's a Timberline something or other. It looks like it was made by Spyderco. It has a diamond shaped hole in the tanto shaped blade and a stainless steel handle. It has been a beater for a while now.
I also have a K.I.S.S. for a money clip.
What I carry usually changes on a whim though.
 
Still testing different carries but lately:

LM Wave on belt
Gerber Multi-Plier in backpack
Spyderco Military in front right pocket
Camillus CUDA IWB (thanx again BF

)
LM Micra on keychain
Red Photon 2 on keychain
and sometimes a Spyderco Endura IWB (left side)
still looking for a smaller sized, but bright flashlight to be carried in the backpack

Of course, all of this is tossed if I'm dressing up for the office. In that case it's just a Spyderco SS Dragonfly IWB and one of my Multi-Pliers in the bag.
