What's your current EDC rotation?

Spyderco Endura C10PBK
Spyderco Starmate C55PS

and Bob Dozier Trapper I (for a week now:) )

And sometimes if I only want to carry a small one:
Moki Pliant Thuja
Spyderco Worker C01

If hiking:
Fallkniven S1 BLK with open leather sheath
 
Dozier Straight Personal-always with me

starting to carry a Case Trapper in a G2 belt sheath everday and a BM524 pretty often as well.

Am getting a BM31 for Christmas so that will take the place of the 524.
 
EDCs:
CRK small Sebenza
Victorinox Pioneer II
Victorinox Soldier

"Dress carry":
CRK Umfaan
Victorinox Secretary
Victorinox Classic (Alox)
Buck 565

A Victorinox Swiss-Tool RS rides in the console of the vehicle.
Either a V-nox Rucksack or Hiker goes with me in the woods.

I have a pretty good selection to choose from( not as extensive as a lot....12 folders....but enough for me) I feel. I have a Carson, a Tighe, and the already mentioned Obenauf's and Smith's. Regardless of what I carry I always seem to come back to the LS-1 series of knives by J.W. Smith. Right now as I type I have the LS-1 Eighties in my right front pocket. There is just something about the handle shape and the way it feels and fits the hand that draws me back to it.
 
I've been on a small fixed blade kick lately, temporarily putting down my beloved large Classic Sebenza. My rotation now involves my latest couple of customs, a Jens Anso damasteel Hybrid and a convex ground Dozier General Utility. These knives are always accompanied by either a SAK or Leatherman juice.

Schrade-Walden Stockman
Camillus Large Trapper
Marbles Large Stockman

Or when I'm feeling a little more modern...
Spydie Calypso Jr.
Benchmade 940 Osborne

In the woods...
Marble Fieldcraft
Lee Reeves Hunter, forged 52100

Fishing, in addition to whatever is in my pocket...
Either a Newt Livesay NRGS neck knife, or my Raker Lil' Blue II in 52100.

These are the main ones, but I do have various other slipjoints that I carry some, like my Henckels red bone Trapper, my Old Timer Bearshead Trapper, and a Remington Stockman, made I'm sure by Camillus.

Me too. The benchmade river and rescue is a great little knife. Strong, easy to keep sharp, no problems with sand or salt water (within reason) and small/easy to carry. Very underrated knife I reckon.
 
Buzz, love the Anso and the Dozier. The Anso looks like it would be so darned handy for just about any chore, not to mention how good it would look doing that chore! I have a Dozier Tactical 6 with 4" blade and kydex horizontal belt sheath. Thought I might give it a try as an edc when it gets a little colder. :D
 
The latest rotation:
A Benchmade Mini-Griptilian
A Leatherman Micra

And in my raincoat, a Wenger Handyman.

Good luck,
Allen.
 
It has boiled down to three here:

* WH Evolution 05 Cocobolo - in my left-front pocket right now, in its sheath

* BM 690

* 710 for non-working days - got tired of freaked-out colleagues and customers. What a difference one inch can make... ...no giggling there please :D ...

I very rarely carry a Buck Duke 500 as a slipjoint -quite a handfull and not too comfortable to carry this way- and I decided to leave my Laguiole - bought in Lourdes BTW, pretty authentic :) - out of my pockets at all.

My three fixed blades are entirely illegal in my knife-frowning country - a Helle Eggen, CS SRK and a SOG Bowie. Can only admire them at home...

In my city-rucksack, a medium-sized Vic always accompanies me - I couldn't do without the scissors!
 
My EDC list is pretty sad compaired to you older fellas :(

Timberline Discovery
Timberline Wortak
Kershaw Scallion
Bear MGC 113 grey handles
And sometimes but very rarely BM31s ;)

And soon to be my one and only EDC is a SOG Flash 2 w/Aluminum handles and partial serrated plain blade :):D And I can't wait to get it :cool:
 
Can't wait for my Dozier small utility fixed blade to arrive from Dozier. This will then add to my current carry rotation:

Always a Companion fixed blade lefty appendix carry.
Soon to show up, a small Crawford KFF styled titanium neck knife
Many times, my Polkowski Amigo neck knife
Snody Retaliator fixed blade in back pocket sheath.

Folders: Hammond's Cruiser (da BOMB)
Mayo TNT; Sabenza (large lefty) Darrel's mini Mad Maxx 4" dagger blade; Crawford lefty KFF, Emerson LaGriff; Spydie frn Endura and SS Endura.

Not necessarily in that order and definitely not all at the same time!! :)
 
CS Recon 1 (Most of the time these days)

5 3/4" CS Tanto (Winter Time mostly)
 
My EDC Rotation has changed a lot in the last couple months.
