I've been carrying a SOG Flash 2 for about 6 months. I went on a knife shopping spree. I bought several knives. The folders I bought are a Spiderco endura, Cold Steel Recon 1 clip point, CRKT M16-DSFG, Benchmade model 51 but I don't know if that's classed as a folder. The rest where fixed blades. I also bought my girlfriends kid a Spyderco Delica, he loves it. I also have a gerber gator. Not including the Benchmade and the Delica which would you carry? I can't make up my mind.

Thanks.
 
I can't help myself, the Delica. If I cant, the Endura, better steel, carries a little bit smaller than the Recon 1. In all honesty, I would carry the BM Morpho also, g10 and d2 in an easy to use, strong package, with BM quality? Sounds kinda awesome to me.
 
Just carry whatever you feel like carrying on any given day. They're your knives, so you can decide to carry a different one each day or rotate your carry knives each week, etc..
 
there's no rule which says you have to carry one all the time. I have one I carry every single day, which is an ALOX SAK Farmer. As far as locking folders, I have several but three get the most pocket time...and Endura, American Lawman, and Griptilian. More often than not, the one I carry ends up being the one I grab when getting dressed. There are also a Boker Action 2, Kershaw Storm, and even a little SRM 710 which might end up getting pocket time. Depends on my mood.
 
I only have 2 of the ones you mention, Recon1 and Endura. I don't like either of them but if I had to choose I'd carry the recon1. I have smaller hands and the "ergonomic humps" on the Endura's handle are in the wrong spot for me. I love the Delica though.
 
I'd carry the Benchmade but I'd probably loose a finger. Just today I nicked myself 3 times playing around with it. I haven't messed with one in a long time. I finally gave in and taped the blade. Dam thing is sharp out the box. I think I'm goof to have to buy a trainer.
 
Endura's are hard to beat for a general use EDC knife I especially like the ones with the FFG blades.
