Your favorite Traditional User

In all honesty, my most used, longest carried, is my Victorinox Rambler. It is the one knife I do not want to be without (even when exercising). But that's probably not what is meant by the OP. So here it is with my current favorite that has been with me every day since I got it almost 2 months ago.

Northwoods Presidential

 
I would have to say my Northfield 53 equal end stockman. Stockmans are by far my favorite knives to carry, and since I traded my Uncle Henry (an EXCELLENT knife) I haven't gone much without the Northfield. I do carry a number 8 opi in the back pocket for heavy/abusive cutting nearly everyday too.
But until the snow melts, I'm going to try to mqke myself carry my Case medium stockman, because it hasnt had more than a month of carry in the three years I've owned it.

These........Two Queens,
A 2003 MooreMaker 1095 steel (by far my best carbon steel blade. I don't know what Queen did in terms of HT, but that knife sharpens and holds an edge as good as any custom I have. And my Queen-Dan Burke collab stockman in ATS-34.

 
My favorite knife is a medium stockman. I use others but if I had to stick to one, it would be the stockman.
 
The one that is in my rfp when needed.. Tomorrow it will be a different one!!! John
 
I have way too many EDC knives that get carried regularly, but not really a lot, because the rotation is too large. But this photo represents about 60-70% of my carries, either an alox SAK or large stockman, or both.

That is some fine wood on the stockman. What type is it ?
 
Thanks Randy & happy to post other pics Josh, here ya go (for what it's worth, I couldn't be happier with the mod - it wouldn't be a favorite without it):



 
I carry all of my knives, but the 47 Hayn helper I have on the way is what I imagine will be my go to "dirty work" knife
 
Thank you, sometimes the gec pen to cope conversions place the nail nick way forward and it looks a little odd, fully functional al though. Yours turned out gr8. I really like it.ive always felt a jack knife should have one flat blade and one with belly. Take care.

It's spread out over what is on me at the time, but this one is all ways on me at home and sees the most use...
 
This has been my EDC for three years. About two years ago I decided that I wasn't going to baby it anymore (ie stop carrying a second knife) and i will use this for whatever.


This large trapper from my friend Adam has a much better blade shape/grind for general usage and its my favorite to use, but i don't carry it that often.
 
I prefer to carry a single blade jack. For myself I've found the usefulness of having a secondary blade doesn't outweigh the additional bulk in the pocket.

This one is with me most days. Disappears in the pocket.

I don't have a single favorite. I have far too many knives to label one as such. I like these and carry the OD green canvass micarta with bail daily.

This Schrade Fire & Ice makes for a nice carry when not carrying the Bull Nose.

Nice ones..!
 
I love that Adam DesRosiers knife ISKski.


This knife gets used hard almost daily. It doesn't hold an edge well but takes one easy and keen. I use it for all kinds of things you would use a knife for in a auto mechanic shop.



this one gets carried and used often, though never as roughly as the Old Timer. This one came to me in a give away from Paul Hilborn and I have truly enjoyed it.

What ever else rides along for the day this one is always with me. Most days it is all that I carry. Always there if needed and no unneeded bulk or weight.
