This weekend, my wife asks me out of the blue....next time you sharpen your knives can you sharpen this for me? And she pulls out a little tiny SAK with about a 1 inch badly blunted and abused blade, she says she found when we were camping this summer, apparantly she's been carrying it around in her purse ever since.

Now I had no idea she had ANY interest in carrying a knife, I was dumbfounded....This is the same woman that doesn't like me keeping the kitchen knives so sharp that she might cut herself......(lets not go there!)

Suggestions? What does your wife or girlfriend carry?

Lets stick with relativley inexpensive production knives, I roundabout mentioned a Mnandi to her and she doesn't want anything that expensive. She is actually pretty happy with the SAK, its more me that wants to get her something else.

So far I have been considering either a Kershaw rainbow chive, or a Spyderco cricket. Not so sure about the Spydie hole and her long fingernails, might not work well.

Anyway, lets hear your thoughts.
 
A mini griptilian would be great, but she might like a Leatherman better. My wife uses my Leatherman almost as much as I do.
 
My wife has several. She usually carries a couple of these along with one of her pistols.

Spyderco Delica
Puma 4 Star Mini Stag
2 SAK's minis(not sure what model)

In the kitchen:
Kershaw kitchen knives
4 CASE steak knives

She likes to buy me guns and knives for Christmas, Birthdays, and Anniversaries. GOD bless her!
 
My wife has a Mini Griptilian and a pink FRN Delica that I finally tracked down. The main issue for her was: no linerlocks or framelocks, because of her nails.
 
My wife, who never even dreamed of carrying a knife, now carries a Spyderco SS Cricket PE as her everyday carry.

She doesn't leave home without it....;)
 
Spyderco Ladybug in an On Scene Tactical Keychain sheath and a Benchmade 551 Griptilian in her Purse.

I bought my wife a Kershaw Leek for Valentine's...

Damn that's a fine knife...sometimes i just feel like taking it away from her...hehehe...
 
Wife carries a blade-tech mouse 2.

Only knife she has been interested in besides the Delica which see uses to prune the plants outside.

Mrs Mongo has both a Chive and a Craig Camerer stag handled bird and trout knife in her purse. And she claims to actually have used them!
 
My wife owns several custom knives, but the one she carries and actually uses is a Spyderco Native.
 
My wife loves to shoot her S&W 686 but is deathly afraid of knives. However, I have been wearing her down a bit and now she has on her keyring a leatherman micra (in red ‘cus red is cute) and a rainbow leek. She thought my brother’s regular chive was neat but loves the colors on the leek (it is really a great knife, I was actually surprised how much I liked it).
 
A Cold Steel Para Edge in the car, an SAK Classic with Alox handles, and a Cold Steel Medium Voyager on her key ring.
 
My wife carries a Leatherman Squirt S4 in her purse. She uses it often, mostly for the screwdrivers and scissors.

My wife carries the Delta Z Osprey I gave her. Too bade Delta Z went out of business. Great knife. She also sometimes carries a Leatherman Micra, but her keychain has is getting too large because of the Pepper Spray and Arc AAA...
