Off Topic What size do you use most?

[Don't drop it.]

Want to know what most folks think about there knife habits , not depending on the job your working on but what is by your side most of the time?

 

[Soulrack223]

I like 3.5" blades in both fixed blades and folders for everyday use. The Busse I use the most is the medium sized Skinny ASH-1. I love that knife!

 

[Jameson77]

A 3-4 inch folder. Lol

 

[Boss1911]

My most used is a 4" blade Emerson Super Commander. It's been my EDC for the last 7 years. If we are talking fixed blade it would be my SAR5 and P&L statement for normal carry. MO BURP and TGULB for camp duty. INFI BB13 or D-Guard Battle Mistress to get some work done.

 

[HexY3co]

3-1/4 is my sweet spot for daily carry however I love big bowies to collect.

 

[Grendelsnap]

An Emerson CQC-7. I've always wanted to commit to a small fixed blade, but haven't found the right one I guess.

 

[TENTEX]

Alpha Dog 6 is my new go to. This blade takes a beating and keeps going.

 

[toker]

Usually a folder around 3.5".

For years, I would have answered with the venerable Buck 110. When it comes to Busse blades, my most used model was a Basic 9. This knife is now semi retired but ready to go if I need a solid multi purpose tool. Another well used knife has been the Ratmandu. I sometimes carry my now ancient Randall Crider for light duty chores for a slight change of pace. Then there are the Spyderco folders that make it into the rotation or the carbon Opinel when fishing trips are on the horizon.

As far as a carry blade goes, I like the Pork Shank. This design may be my favorite fixed blade for EDC. Most carried Busse would be the AMS 20th Anniversary Mean Street.

EDC: 3-3,5 folder, or a fix'blade.
"Woods EDC" - 3-5" fixblade and a 8-10" fix"
I use my Basic 8 the most, from my Busses.

Carried without a folder, I like -4.5” - 5”, like the SOB or Ratmandu.

I used to think -6” was ideal carried with a folder, until I got my DSF (top in your pic). That knife is so light and easy to carry that 8” blade length is no problem anymore

Battle Saw is my go companion for yard work. But Recently the Boss Street, WTH, and Leaner meaner, have been with me more often because they're pocketable.

 

[dogboye]

Folder 4" or less.
Fixed, camping, 7-8 inch. Usually the a TGULB.

 

[resinguy]

The biggest one I have. It's the only one I have.

 

[Andy the Aussie]

I never travel without and ASH1 but use either my B4 or HRLM for most tasks.

 

[airrick2003]

4-6" for me.

My SOB has the most carry time by far out of my Busse's.

 

[littlehoot]

My AMS 20thanniv. Ed gets more use than any knife I've ever owned

Same here. Well, any Busse. That needs to be a permanent seller on the websites.

Wish I could name some big choppers as my most used blades, they’re definitely the most fun, but my BG AMS sees the most action by far.
