I use the folders in this picture quite a bit.  My normal EDC rotation is primarily SAKs or a Gerber Shortcut, but my Bucks see a lot of activity (not shown is a Buck Ranger, which has seen a lot of time on my belt for over 40 years).

Yeah, I got caught up in the Orange handles...probably due to spending so much time on the water.  Either that, or it's because finding a dark covered handle on the ground or in the snow, can be challenging at times.  That collection has grown a bit over the last year and now has a few BO Bucks in 12c27Mod steel.  I seem to like blades in the 3" category when it comes to slip joints. The fit to my hand and fuctionality works for me.

I've given away a few locking slip joints over the last year...if the knife only cuts, I don't seem to like them.  In a pocket carry, I seem to like versatility, which seems to be SAKs.  When it comes to just a blade, I want it to lock and be very sturdy.  And I do use fixed blades for heavier activities like camping.

Alright we've got

My shiny (or not  :D ) new spyderco paramilitary 2

Walnut/stainless opinel #6 (secret Santa gift a couple years back!)

My dad's (gifted to me) old uncle henry schrade LB5 given to him by his company at the time

Spyderco C38 lightweight Jess Horn (mild reprofile)

The only multitool I'll carry without a dedicated knife. Leatherman skeletool

Spyderco grasshopper, given to me by a best friend, a few years ago.

SOG micron II, love the tanto for package opening

At this point I'm mostly para2, but they all get their time in the sun (or pocket).

Nice. I have been debating getting a RAT II for carry in blade restricted areas. I have the Delica4 for that currently, but options are always nice.

I have a serrated Pacific Salt incoming to cover for days spent fishing or on the beach.
Living in the big city so not many of those during winter but come on summer!

Part of the inspiration to get one came from the Captn

I got one coming too, one of the guys on the Spyderco forums talked me into it. Needed some SE in my life.

The Pacific Salt is one of my favorites! Getting it in serrated is a great decision and i'm sure you will love it.  :tu:

Just got these in today, they will be carried regularly.

These and a Spartan for $18 shipped on eBay, the 8700 is brand new, the Spartan is decent, the Gerber has been used, but the serrations are still fresh, so not too much. Never had knives like these, I like them. The Kershaw is shaving sharp, and is an amazing little knife. Solid lockup, great ergonomics, just wish it opened a touch easier. As for the evo, I've wanted one for a minute, but didn't want to spend the money in case I didn't like it. I guess $6 is the right price  :rofl:

Pretty pleased!

You can adjust the pivot to make it open easier.

Do you have a Cybertool? They have some torx bits. They were the right size for a Skeletool. Who knows you might get lucky.

Very nice, captain! I should work on getting some more myself. It turns out the good old century-old tool is the most useful for me.

After a long nap in storage, the mighty Minigrip has found a place back in the line up.  It has some stiff competition for pocket time, my BM 940's (especially the 940-1) have really been a pleasure to carry daily since around April.
