What's your favorite SAK?

Ever notice how the soldier model never seems to wear? Mine looks almost new on the outside, same goes with its walk and talk.

It's got some dings here and there, but they just add character. The alox is a lot smoother around the edges than it was seven years ago and the blade has a few scratches from sharpening.

But it's as tight as the day I bought it, and the walk and talk are perfect.

Every time I clean it the thought that I could buff those scratches and dings out and have the scales looking brand new crosses my mind. But I don't want those scratches and dings to go away.

I find myself playing with this knife more than any other if I'm sitting around doing nothing. I don't necessarily open and close the blades, but I'll spin it around between my fingers absently. I guess it's almost become like a security blanket maybe, or a worry stone... no matter where I am, it's there. It's comforting and I love feeling its weight in the bottom of my pocket.

I don't know what I'd do if I ever lost this knife.

So yeah... it's my favorite SAK.
 
If I had to choose only one, it would be a SwissChamp.

I like the hardwood spartan a lot for every day. Otherwise the Spirit X is great.
The hardwood models don't get enough love around here
 
I've been carrying a Vic Executive every day since around 1999 or so. It doesn't seem to get much mention on these forums, but I have used every feature on it.

On the regular-sized models, my fave seems to alternate among the Soldier/Pioneer/Farmer. I love the Alox handles, and hope at least a couple Alox models will always stay in production. I use every feature on these as well. The Executive pairs up well with any of these models.

If I carry my Swisstool Spirit, I don't carry an Alox model, but still have my Executive on me.

My EDC is the Advernturer. I like the plain edge One Handed Trekker a lot also, but it is a tad thick for me to EDC in my pocket.
