What’s your every day carry “EDC” knife?

[Sgt Shultz]

I really like a Slimline Trapper..Good tool never know it's in your pocket..made in the USAView attachment 3173959

One of the reasons I've carried the Gerber Bolt Action for so many yrs, slim, lightweight, great locking mech, takes and holds a nice edge.

As an electrician my tools are important.

Yep, my CRKT have stripped many a cable onboard ships.

When used as a tool they need to lock!!

I have a good friend who always brings his Gerber when we go camping..That knife really holds an edge

I found my newest EDC knife, the Kershaw 1304BW Speedsafe for virtually free at an estate sale. It has a smooth thumbstud flipper action for easy one-handed opening.

My go-to EDC blade before the Kershaw was the vintage Schrade LB7 Lockback knife (bottom), a workhorse which was purchased along with its leather holster for a song in Tijuana, Mexico over 40 years ago! My easiest carry due to its size is the Schrade Old Timer, a great find for me at a garage sale! It may be small, but works for anything I need a blade for.
I picked up the Sheffield Boreal knife pair at a local garage sale simply because I liked the look of the hardwood handles.

one of these are with me at all times...


but it is usually this one when out and about...


or this one while walking / working on my property...

Always had a 110 on me the first 12 yrs in the Navy, then I switched to the original Leatherman, still have both.

I have one of the little Swiss Army jobs on my keychain, the blade is hardly usable but the other tools are. I have a big folding two blade Case that I will carry if I feel the need.

Glad someone posted a buck..the 110 is still made in the USA today

 

[mkane]

Benchmade here also

I don't carry a good knife on a work day because they catch so much abuse..sometimes I take two just in case

 

[leesonic]

Didn't realize I needed an everyday knife. Probably need an everyday screwdriver more.

my 110 is from their custom shop a bunch of years back. The wife always steals my knives... so she got me the buck for xmas engraved saying "Hands Off" on the blade and "James" "Only" on the bolsters. It was my EDC for a while, but I found it too heavy for my pocket at times.

I've carried my Gerber skeleton for more years than I remember (which may be a sign of other issues).

You never know when you will need to deflate a lung or 2.

 

[Govany]

Just a couple licks on the diamond hone makes this old buck scary sharp..

Lots of Gerber love so far.

My brother always carried it on his belt same as the 120.
