i have to many to pick a favorite, but i have a custom Sean O'Hare finback, hidden tang, ironwood, and his own 672 layer(o1 & L6) coming soon that will be at the top. It was featured at the Blade show and it was said that some thought it was the nicest knife there. other than that my Boker Leo IV is a knife of great craftsmanship with 600 layer and 4 steels. Let me hear about yours!

I have one of those in Quincewood, it is a terrific knife, just took it apart to fix a crack in the scale, lubed teflon washers. and it is super smooth. Love that knife, the pocket clip is darn near perfect, if you have the same one, thanks for sharing
 
That's an easy one,it's my Case Damascus Peanut.I don't even notice it in my jeans pocket,I can if I focus on it.It is the one knife that I always have on me,though I carry a couple others as well.

When I got the knife it was mint but you can see by the scratches on the bolsters that I carry it in my pocket along with change, keys, etc. regularly.
 
I'm not a big fan of damascus, since I'm mainly a user rather than a collector, but I carry and use this friction folder quite often. When I talked to the maker about getting a simple friction folding knife with a wharncliffe blade he just assumed that I wanted a damascus blade. I expected plain 1095 carbon steel and was surprised when I opened the box.

Very nice friction folder!! The grain and pattern of the wood handles and damascus blade compliment each other. Almost flow together from one to the other.
 
The only Damascus blade that I use, and the first one I ever got just to say I had a damascus knife was the Kershaw Shallot in Damascus. It's great looking and at a good enough price point I'm more than happy to use it as an EDC.
