I pretty much ALWAYS carry my 3" framed SAK Executive.
I find the 2.25" SAKs to be way to small for my liking and the 3.5" - 4" SAKs are too large for my front pockets (poke out too much).
The 3" SAK Executive gives me most of the tools I like to use. I use the scissors and tweezers a lot and occassionally the flat head tip and flat phillips.

*** I just wish the blades were decent knife steel and the tools were decent tool steel!!!!

When wearing dress pants, I can't usuaully carry much else. Sometimes I throw in my Kershaw - Ken Onion Leek or Chive for fun.


But, when wearing casual pants, jeans or shorts, I always have a 2nd "REAL" knife.


For me, my primary EDC is always a folder unless I am camping, hiking or hunting.
If camping, hiking or hunting, I will often have 2 - 3 knives.

- I usually have a larger 3.5" - 4" SAK (or leatherman), a "Real" folder and a fixed.
The fixed blade is usually a 4" - 5" blade.
But, that is where the "which week is it" thing comes in!
Sometimes I want a big chopper.... many more to choose. But, currently, my large chopper is my (personally made satin) Battle Rat. (Truth comes out.... I am missing one of the most significant Scrap Yard knives....) I passed on the Dog Father because I thought the DFLE would be shortly behind it and I didn't want to have to strip it myself. So, I have been waiting..... and waiting....


My current rotation of "REAL" folders are:

- Heavily modified CRKT Apache
- Heavily modified RUKUS
- And I am wanting to start carrying my Lone Wolf Tighe that I have also modified. But, I need to adjust (modify) the clip some. It is currently too tight.


I have lots of other folders that I consider very good and worthy. But, there is always some little detail I want to change, customize, and/or modify and I haven't wanted to modify so many of them.... yet.

I used to EDC a Kershaw Ken Onion Whirlwind that I only had to lightly modify. Still a good EDC choice.

Others with great EDC potential (for me):

- Al Mar - SERE 2000 (a little too bulky/thick, but awesome and very well made knife)
- Benchmade - McHenry & Williams
- Benchmade - TSEK large with axis lock
- Boker - Brend
- Delta Z - Osprey Scale release D/A (....but, not legal to carry. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />)
- EDI - Genesis I
- Kershaw - Ken Onion - Boa
- Spyderco - Military (WISH it had a thumb stud and not a hole)
- Spyderco - Terzuola (WISH it had a thumb stud and not a hole)
