At this moment in time, there probably wouldn't be a single Bussekin on the list <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

First would be a multi-tool, either my Gerber legend or Leatherman wave. I have a bunch of others, but those two are my favorites.

Second would probably be a more substantial folder - the old classic Spyderco endura with the plastic pocket clip makes its way into my jeans pretty regularly.

Third would be a big blade for serious work. At the moment, this pack is lead by my CS LTC kukri. I have a new M9LE but haven't had a chance to put it through its paces enough to be comfortable carrying it out into the great unknown. Without having actually used the big Rat, even my cheap Ka-Bar heavy bowie beats the M9 at the moment.



Once my new toys have gotten some more serious use, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Spyderco replaced by a smallish fixed blade, Bird Dog LE or something of the like for fine slicing, and the LTC replaced by the M9 or something else....

plus, with BLADE coming up in a week, I expect to have a couple of new goodies that could take the top of the list...
