I'm actually not carrying anything right now as I'm sitting at my desk in my skivvies; however, I do have this Schrade Fire & Ice Trapper by GEC and this Boker Sheath on my desk and will actually carry them if I decide to put my pants on later.

I've been sitting on the porch, wearing pants, and whittling.
Isolating with this sucker today. It sliced up an apple for me a few moments ago.
