I like little fixed blades for their carry ability and use ability,and my fav's are a CR Aviator and an old case leather handle mini fixed.Many times I overlook these little blades but they are so handy at camp and on the trail.
 
That would be the Benchmade 145 satin Nimravus Cub that the guys at "The Benchmade Forums" bought me for my 50th birthday gift. It's an excellent little knife with a nice birthday greeting lazer-engraved on it, and it's a numbered special edition, to boot.
 
I picked up a Neil Blackwood Miami Ninja that's been my secondary EDC for a while now.
Sometimes I carry a Busse Assault Shaker, or a Michael Burch little japanese style blade.
 
No question: I have a Mantis by Alan Folts. Awesome knife, great sheath--it's a well-thought-out system. Mine was the only one with green Micarta when I bought it (hey, for a Mantis, it seemed only natural) and also the only one with a groove for the index finger--but Mr. Folts told me once he made it, he thought the finger groove was a good idea. Having used it for a few years, I agree. The kydex isn't as tight as it once was, but the finger groove still helps me draw it.

It's small, sharp, extremely pointy, and fits the hand perfectly. It also weighs next to nothing. I still love it. It was my first custom, and I've had others since, but none to match it.
 
My Bark River Mini-Canadian. Fits my hand well for a small knife, has the great steel and convex edge of Bark River knives, and is attractive but also unthreatening.

I just got it and haven't put it to use yet, and won't for a time due to medical recuperation (not in relation to knives!).

Mine would be a Jens Anso damasteel personal drop point.

With a 2.5 " blade, it can easily be carried in my pocket with its kydex sheath.
 
Toss up between my Dozier Bodyguard and my CRKT/Polkowski Companian.....the Bodyguard because it has a sharpened top edge and the Companian because it just feels sooooo good in my hand!

I like my drop point dangler by John Greco,,,use it at work every day,,
it's small, stays wicked sharp, and I like the dangling sheath.
And the prices are quite reasonable for the knife you get,,

My Moore itty bitty in damascus. It's 3 1/2" long and comes in very handy. It's also my wifes favorite knife.
 
My RJM Handiman has been with me for a few years...a great little neck knife that conceals well and is easy to grip (and ya gotta love that recurve :D )...the second is my little Brusletto Profileringskniv (from Ragweed Forge ), which has been an awesom little camp/trail knife...does wonders on carving traps and general whittling and camp chores...

I will say that little Bark River Micro Canadian does look like a handy little blade...

I should be getting a Mission MCU ti and a Busse Active Duty in the mail this week...I'll test em and see which one becomes my EDC little fixed blade. Christmas in August.
 
Swamp Rat / Wally Hayes rat tail. I had one and sold it to help finance a bigger purchase, then ended up buying another because I missed it so much. I see it as a simple but very refined, practical design. Easy to conceal. Tough as hell with 3/16" SR-101. It just feels great and cuts great and I use it every day now.
 
I find the Strider WP a great small fixed blade for carry/EDC.
I also have a small fixed blade by Ram of |ZERO| knives.
2 WP's and a WP XM01

Another very under rated small fixed blade is this Utility by Allan Folts
