I usually carry two knives every day. Out of these three knives which two would you pick?
1 Swiss army tinker
2 kershaw blur black plain edge
3 case medium stockman
Which would you carry?
What two knives do you carry everyday?
Thanks
 
1 & 2

Most days I'm carrying only my Leatherman Charge (TTi), but often (not at work) I carry a Wenger Traveler (slow access, multi-tool) and a BM 585s or BM 745 (quick access knife), pretty close to 1 & 2.
 
2&3

I used to carry an OLBLK Blur with my 180T Old Timer (sentimental) but since my 0560 arrived it's that and the Old Timer.
 
1&2
I carry a swisstool sprit X and an umnumzaan. Sometimes I ditch the swisstool for a vic rambler or a one-piece like an Atwood.
 
Which would you carry?

tinker = most utility
blur = quickest deployment (to impress the chicks, open a package, or repel an evildoer)

What two knives do you carry everyday?

Victorinox Classic, primarily for the scissors
medium to large Spyderco or similar folder for general utility and quick deployment
Case Peanut CV, just because I'm trying to develop a patina on it, and I have to slow down to use it
 
Right now, my EDC is a BOKER PLUS Vox BOB Elegance.

7mm thick, slightly more than 1/4".

I prefer fixed blades. But my folders are as follows: CS RECON 1, Ka-Bar FIN w/o serrations (thanks clich), Remington Heavy gauge #RE17519 large stockman, Boker trapper w/lockblades. LeatherMan Surge & an Original LeatherMan.

blur and stockman probably
at least you do have some smaller blades and a "food" blade (the clip point one)


my daily carriers are often a small sebenza and a stockman
 
The Tinker and Stockman. I used to have a Blur and it was way too good at shredding pants. With the variety of blades and other tools on the SAK, the other knives are more useful.
 
To be honest I would just carry the stockman.

What I carry daily is a Vic Electrician and sometimes I add an Izula 2 or Spyderco military to it but mainly just carry the SAK.
 
The Blur And The Super Tinker.
A Main Blade And Some Extra Tools Just In Case.

Currently I Carry My Spyderco Chokwe And Most Times My Custom SAK. But Sometimes Another Blade Like The Sage 2.
 
Tinker and Blur.

The alternatives are too redundant. Tinker and Stockman gives you 2 slipjoints - you'll be carrying 2 knives and neither lock. Blur and Stockman just gives you 4 blades of different shapes.

Oddly, if I were to carry just one knife, it may very well be the Stockman.
 
put me down for 1 + 2, that's primarily because I've never had experience with 3.

I just realized that I edc 4 knives on me at any given time, now:

1. ladybug on chain
2. swiss signature
3. boker/ burke thorn

and the primary switches from what I have in edc rotation:

4. xm18 3", small sebenza, zaan, uk pk, etc...today it was the zt 0551.
 
I have a blur and I really like it so that would be my first choice, then what I usually carry to supplement it is a leather man juice s2.
 
I'd say the Blur and the Tinker. The Tinker for the utility and the blur for the quick blade access. Never had a Blur myself, not a huge fan of spring assisted blades.
NORMALLY I carry a people friendly knife like the Delica and something more robust like the ZT200 or my Emerson. Unfortunately i'm in college so I'm limited to the Delica and my Leatherman Wave.
 
my vote is the tinker & the blur. My reasoning, as has been stated already, is if you already have the SAK why choose another slipjoint (unless you really like them) if you have the option of a one-handed opener for convenience.
depending on what I am wearing to work I carry either a SAK tinker & CRKT Mirage (with dark pants) or the tinker & a Leek (with khakis). At home i'll usually upsize to a leatherman core & a balisong.
