Nah, I just pick what fits me that day, sometimes that can take awhile.

These are mostly small traditional knives, small pens, a few jacks, some canoes and some trappers along with whatever other smallish pocket knives I get.:D
 
I recently purchased this Ken Coats' swaybacked jigged boned Wharny, in ATS 34 (RC 62), and posted it elsewhere, but it really belongs right here. At slightly over 3 1/8" it fits into my Levi's watch pocket... just.

My new Case Wharncliffe Copperhead in red bone and CV. Loving this knife.

I'm also carrying my Wenger Canyon, and a Kershaw Sapphire. It's not traditional, but that Sapphire is a great little knife.
 
Office today so it was a 71 Case 6383. Yeah they are little knives, but for some reason I am a sucker for balloons.
I would love to see Case go back to making these the way they used to. They are tough little knives.
 
Case 9 Dot, (1981) 62032 Small Texas Jack rec'd today from Durbin. :cool:
 
My new 6.5 Bone Stag medium stockman in CV. Been in my pocket since I cleaned it up today. It's on kitchen duty tonight to start a patina.

Case amber bone peanut at the office, swiched to my new green bone swayback when I got home. I am really impressed with the new Case Bose Swayback. Great knife.

I also briefly used my yeller sodbuster jr. to open some packages, zips through thick cardboard.

(Gotta admit I also had a large wood sebenza clipped to my pocket too, as much as I love my slippies, it is a rare day that I don't carry a Sebenza or two at some point during the day.)
 
This one today. As I handle different brands, I am finding myself going full circle and going back toward Case. It seems that the open/ close, fit and finish is more to my liking on Case, other than old knives like NYK. I can buy a 63032 out of SMKW's for $40.00 in CV, which is half the price of a Queen, and just as good if not better quality.This ons just a tad big, so one of these days I'll be getting the medium in amber and CV, to see how it stands up to the original.

Case Amber Bone Damascus peanut today. I blame all of you for this serious Nut addiction that seems to have developed!
