What pocket knife do you carry everyday

when not working:
pants front pocket large sebenza alternate with caly 3 + inside fatboy pack regular delica 4. On keyring an ARC AAA
at work: paramillie or minimanix or greco falcon or fred perrrin street beat, light fenix L2T
 
1) Mini Griptilian 556 for cutting.
2) SAK Classic Alox for snipping, screw driving, prying and grooming.

Often I replace the Classic with the Signature if I may need a pen.

All three for under a hundred dollars total and no big deal if I lose or damage one. And best of all, minimal bulk and weight.
 
Vic Scientist -- all day, every day. I have red, white, and black ones so I rotate them every now and then. Just about everything I need in a two-layer configuration.
 
Spyderco Tenacious sometimes
SAK Super Tinker most of the time
Spyderco Native always- in my watch pocket when wearing Levis.
 
I really am enjoying this one!

OMG...that is beautiful...I'm not even much of a bali fan, but...WOW!
 
Spyderco Native in my pocket and Swiss Army Rucksack around my neck in the eveyday world. In the woods the same plus either a Buck119 or TAK on my side.

Re: the Vic Scientist-- I never thought the SAK magnifying glass would be useful for anything, but now that my eyes are over 40, I am starting to see how it could be really handy. That end-mounted Phillips screwdriver should be on lots more models. It's one of their best tools. And of course, a pen is always handy. The Scientist is a really nice configuration. I can see how it earned a spot as your EDC.

As much as I wanted a Scientist because of its magnifying glass I probably use that tool least of all. The blade, Phillips head, and pen get used daily and I even use the straight pin fairly often for flipping DIP switches and such. I just like knowing that the magnifying glass is there. I used to carry a jeweler's loupe even though I rarely used it so the SAK has removed the need for that item at least.
 
Every day I have a Spyderco UK Pen Knife and Victorinox Classic with me, with a Spyderco Spin often carried clipless in my 5th pocket.






Sometimes I'll rotate in other knives, usually in addition to the above. Victorinox soldier, Leatherman Squirt P4, Queen D2 stockman, Spyderco Tenacious, Military or Byrd G10 Flight.
 
I usually always have a Boker Plus SubClaw on me, as well as one of my kershaw leeks, or Kershaw SpecBump. I just can't wait to get the Kershaw R.A.M., which will probably be carried with my subclaw.
