It'll be one of these, but struggling to say which for sure  :think:

When not carrying my Multiplier 600,I used to carry a Spartan and lately (after finding this forum and SAKWiki) it went into rotation with a Compact.

My Spartan
It was the first one I bought from a car boot sale with damaged blades
These were the first SAK blades I worked on
These were the first SAK scales I made (Iroko)
I used it to first practice on with my Lansky system
Its been riding in my jeans pocket with my keys and coins for about two years now and still looks good to me  :cheers:

Everything’s adjustable

I have a group of about 5 SAKS that get carried and used on a regular basis.
But since I modded a Passenger last December I can, without a doubt, say that this is my most used SAK.

I have two EDCs - a Compact and a custom Yeoman w/ watch that I made. Neither are my most used. That would easily be the 91mm alox Spartan I made as an experiment a couple years ago. It got thrown in the junk drawer in the kitchen and is the go-to knife to open bottles and packages. Also high on the list is the Voyager Lite that I keep in my nightstand. Too big for my tastes for pocket carry, but the perfect bedside SAK.

Nice! I EDC either a Para 2 or one of my full Millies, also. Love that orange Millie! I'm curious, though? How did you achieve that effect on the scales of the Compact? Mainly in relation to the Victorinox shield? Did you create them from the ground up, including the shield? I mean, they don't appear to simply be painted around the shield. What they look like (to me) is laminated G10 that has been gouged out to create that tiger stripe effect. How did you do the shield? Please forgive me if that's a stoopid question. But, inquiring minds need to know ???

CT 34.

Ditto!!!

I've been carrying the CT34 every day for almost 12 years and I still use it regularly.  I use the small blade to open boxes (keeping the longer blade clean & sharp) and the bit driver to open computer cases, unscrew the panels on laptops, build PCs, etc.
I'm a computer tech and couldn't imaging living without my trusty Cybertool!

The sak I've used most would probably have to be my old swiss champ, which I've had for 18 years now. More recently I would say its the super tinker that I edc at work.

It has to be either Harvester, Handyman, Craftsman, Spartan, alox Soldier, GAK Solo, alox Solo, alox Settler, Pocket Pal, Spartan Lite, alox Soldier, Camper, Forester or some variation of Nomad. ;)

I think those are the knives I usually end up actually using most. I would love being rich and careless enough to use my 1884 Soldier replica a lot, though. :D

I made it ;). It's black and orange g10 hand ground scales and an inlaid shield.
If I remember correctly, wait, what was I saying?

My two mostly used Swiss army knives are: the black Victorinox Spartan for my pocket and a yellow Wenger EVO 18 for my work backpack.

Both are eclipsed by my favourite MT of all time - the LM Skeletool CX.  :D
