What carry knives are you in love with?

[stevie_d]

Lately I'm all into Spyderco. I have 5 and 3 on the way!

The one I've had the longest and the most use on, still running strong as ever, is the super bang-for-buck spyderco tenacious, running mid-$30s right now on Amazon, but I got it for like $30 a while back: http://amzn.to/Kd8OOg

What are you guys carrying these days?!

Pretty cool! I've never tried carrying a fixed blade

Anything OTF by Microtech.

Ahhhhh don't even tempt me... Microtech makes some sweet stuff.

Tell me about it. I eat Ramen noodles every day but I have some nice knives.

I recently picked up a Case Canoe that I absolutely love. It rides in the bottom of my left front pocket.

And I also tote a Leatherman Skeletool clipped to the inside of my right front pocket. The Skeletool is different than most Leathermans. Instead of being a multi-tool with a knife blade, the Skeletool is kinda like a folding knife with a pair of pliers and four screwdrivers.

It has a folding blade that is accessible from the outside with a thumb hole kinda like a Spydie, but you can open it up to reveal a pair of pliers, as well as two double ended bits with both a larger and smaller sized flathead and Phillips head screwdrivers. It also has a carabiner built into the handle that doubles as a pop/beer bottle opener.

Here's a vid...

I also have my blue Leatherman Squirt PS4 and a Fenix E15 on my keychain.

Maybe after my Spyderco habit winds down a little. I added the Ambitious to my Tenacious (2 of the series of 4 identical looking but different sized) - then last night I ordered the other two models - the Persistence and the Resilience.

I also got the Spyderco Manix 2 in lightweight translucent blue grips :O

I have been carrying the Spyderco Dragonfly lightweight model, and I have a purple grip Delica 4 on it's way for my girlfriend - going to duracoat the blade pink and engrave her name!

I like that!

Spyderco Paramilitary 2 in all black.

I freaking love it. Wicked edge, great blade shape, premium steel, fast deployments, awesome ergos. And it's light! Less than 4 oz weight.

ETA: Gotta add two more things. (1) The Para 2's fit and finish are wonderful. It's one of the Spydies made in Golden, Colo. Go USA! (2) The compression lock is a great system once you get used to it. It's kinda like a "backwards" liner lock (operated from the back of the knife) with strong overtones of the Axis lock mixed in. Very secure in lockup.
