Your Everday Carrying Knife

Daily carry set: Spyderco Wegner & Wegner, Jr. and SAK Soldier
For suit & tie days or airline travel: the large Weg and SAK soldier get locked up and out comes the SAK Cadet.
Both sets are supplemented by a Fallkniven WM-1 in a cf pattern multicarry sheath by Normark. The WM only gets locked up during hunting season and gets replaced with the Fallkniven F1 or an old Buck 102.
------------------
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, It's the sudden stop at the end.

David Broadwell's LDC-107 (Les Robertson) gets carried more than all other 20+ folders I rotate between. Very comfortable to carry and hold/use, great blade geometry. One fine design.
2nd place: 3-1/2" Kit Carson model 4 in D2.
3rd: coupla custom Terzuola's.
Life is too short to drink cheap wine.
I need a Darrel Ralph EDC in 420V or Norris San Mai someday. Trying to figure out how I want the handles to look.
Back yard work: Spydie Terzuola & Military, Benchmade 710 and 800.
Hunting: backup is Carson Model 4 in 4" 420V.

Usually a small sebenza in a pouch. A perfect size for comfortable carry that's still knife enough handle practically any cutting chore.
Man, some of you guys carry more knives than I have in my whole collection

Sheeze, and I thought I needed suspenders!
At work
right front small CRKT CKFF or Spyderco Jess Horn.
left front SAK mechanic attached to a Mini-Mag Solitaire
CRKT M16 in winter coat pocket
large CRKT CKFF in brief case.
Other times when wearing jeans I've got a gerber multitool on the right hip and a 'Pockit' on the left hip with a BM WH Axis set up for the left hand and a MiniMAG-AA.
Paranoid? no, just feeling comfortable!

I bought a Case XXX Barlow back in 74. Paid about $15 for it. It has the best "walk and talk" of any folding knife I ever owned. It's a good knife. The blades take and hold and edge well. Best part is that it is a very traditional style pocketknife. I still have it and carry it at times.

SAK classic on keychain
Buck/Strider everday either IWB or in a Gould & Goodrich police type leather magazine pouch.
Sometimes I'll have a set of strap-on throwers, on ankle or wrist.

See you in hell, Liquid. That takes care of the cremation.

I have to wear a suit every day. With my suit I carry a slipjoint Toothpick from Richard Rogers:

After work could be any number of cutoms or autos.
I am also trying to decide which neck knife to buy. I'm looking at knives from RJ Martin, Bud Nealy, Kit Carson, and Al Polkowski. Can't decide.

I've been carrying a Swiss Tinker I got for a B-day gift when I was 17 for about ten years now, when I'm working EMS, I carry a Spyderco Rescue as a companion, when working my other job (Hospital Security) I carry a Benchmade AFO along with it. Feels strange carrying two knives alot of times, but it seems to be a pretty effective system so far.
