im gonna have to go with the mple, after some edge work.

Excellent responses so far and about what I expected. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I know the DM is a tough little knife - I used it to baton through some hard oak on my trip to the Smokies and it did it nicely. I definitely think, for me, that a small to medium sized blade is what I will get the most use out of. So far, the DM is serving that role perfectly. Not too big and not too small and tough as heck. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Lazi- I hope you washed the muk blade well between the chicken and the ice cream <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Chicken ice cream, hmmm... an al la king sort of dish in whipped soft-serve frozen cream... that might actually work.

I like all of my Scrap Yards, but don't live/work in an environment conducive to fixed-blade carry, so haven't actually used them.

The Scrap Muk is my most used knife, especially for cutting meat and veggies. Though that may change once I start bringing the S5 LE on some hikes.

Original Dumpster Mutt and DFCG are my two most used blades.

I'm still very partial to the DFLE... followed very closely by the S5. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

yup... my muk is also the most washed item in my kitchen. This is also why I wanted a sheath that coould easily be flushed out.

The S5 is rapidly catching up to the Regulator for me. Just easier to carry. If not carried, my Regulator is always at least accompanying me in the car, just in case.

But, my favorite is my desert DF!!!!

Both classics and heavy users of mine too, I find myself picking up the 5
a lot more but I tend to reach for anything near by <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'm going to say the S5. Perhaps I'm still infatuated with it, but it really is the knife I've been using the most. After that I'll say my Muk, then BDLE

Although with colder weather upon us, I'll probably be doing more batoning and chopping of firewood, so my DFGC will be out of the sheath more in the next few months.

these questions drive me nuts though....it's like asking me what my favorite beer is. A: The one I'm drinking at the moment

Why do I think that you would ALWAYS be nearby a pretty good assortment of cutting tools??

I will have to go with one I do not yet own, though have ordered, a S5 Le. I have a S5 Cg, had two, sold one so I could purchase an Le. I hope INFI is worth it. From the stellar reports, I believe it will be.
