Hands down ... Spyderco Delica in ZDP-189.

There have been many usurpers to my pocket throne but the Delica ZDP always reclaims it's rightful place from these pretenders.

Hands down ... Spyderco Delica in ZDP-189.

There have been many usurpers to my pocket throne but the Delica ZDP always reclaims it's rightful place from these pretenders.

Similar: Spyderco Caly 3.5 in ZDP-189 is my benchmark/default. Others rotate in and out but it's the baseline and probably will be until it breaks.

 

[Rare blade]

My newest edc is Crawford tanto.

 

[Insipid Moniker]

Spyderco Manix 2 XL and Cold Steel AK-47 get the most pocket time. After those two it's the Yojimbo 2 and Pacific Salt.

 

[hhmoore]

Most carried & most used - ZT 0200KW

 

[JR88FAN]

Small Sebenza 21 Insingo.

Just built for EDC......
I am usually good at moving new sharp things into my pocket, but this one is glued to me.

 

[Ankerson]

Sebenza 25 and Spyderco Military

Spyderco Mantra

 

[SALTY]

So much depends on what I am wearing that day.

S&T or lightweight slacks, Endura Wave.
Jeans, utility/cargo pants or anything heavier than lightweight, Emerson Roadhouse or CQC-8 ... in one of the three sizes.
Vacation, or in the Keys or the Caribbean, hands down the Spyderco Salt series ... mostly Pacific sized.
And while not technically qualifying as EDC, either an Adamas 275 or Sebenza 25 for those not-so-ordinary days.

Other than the above, everything else is pretty much just everything else - even my beloved Buck 110s.

For my needs/likes an EDC will have a satin or stonewashed blade. Blade length of 3 1/2"-4"ish, black G10 scales. I currently prefer a Ti Walker Liner Lock but compression lock is good too.

My current EDC is an Emerson mini CQC 15. Every day for the past 9 months.

Before the Emerson I alternated between these for a year.

Spyderco Military and Paramilitary 2.

Before those two I was into Ti frame locks and carried a ZT 0301 for a year.

The only knife I see adding is an Emerson CQC 7 to alternate with the Mini 15.

I've been carrying one of Gavko's ultralight neck knives for over a year now. It's rigged up to sit right over my belt buckle in line with the belt, so I barely even notice it's there. By far my favorite small fixed blade I've owned.

 

[SW-EDC]

As of late, My Pro-Tech TR-5 AO

 

[Basp2005]

Xm-18, Izula combo.

 

[Colorodo]

ZT0300
ZT0200
And I want the new ZT0909.

 

[bt93]

Vic Explorer Plus.

 

[Henry Beige]

For a one-handed opener, Benchmade Mini Barrage or a Leek. But more often I carry a multi-blade traditional like a Case medium stockman or a RR improved muskrat, along with some flavor of single-bladed blue collar knife, like an Opinel or Svord peasant, or Higo No Kame. Today, it's a brass Otter-Messer Mercator.

I am essentially a cheapskate, perhaps because I am retired and on a limited income, so you will rarely see me spend over a hundred bucks on a knife. Ten to twenty bucks is more like it.

 

[GB940Rookie]

Most used edc's are my Spydie Rookie G10, Techno and BM 707
Favorite edc is the Benchmade 940-1
I want a ZT 456

 

[Ajack60]

Sebenza 25, Umnumzaan and a Strider
On occasion, the cornucopia of other knives I have.
