What knife do you carry!!!
Hi folks, looking to upgrade my knife to something of higher quality, the one I used everyday for cutting apples to carving wood polls is a CRKT, I believe it was a zero tolerance, but it has been stolen! Some people don't appreciate knifes as a tool and I'm just curious as to what you guys are using, so I can get some ideas! Thanks!

I have a CRKT M21-04G in my right pocket as I type this. Possibly my favorite knife I have ever owned.

Zero tolerance makes good knives, some arent cheap though. The zero tolerance 0450 would be a good edc size.

For EDC at work, I have a kershaw Junkyard Dog. It is rugged and gets used hard. When not at work, I carry the kershaw Blur. Nice, light, and quick. I have quite a few others I have tried, a ZT, Cold Steel, Sogs, spyderco...but always seem to like my Kershaws better in the long run. I sometimes switch up, but the Blur and JYD get the nod 99% of the time.

My everyday carry is a Chris Reeve Inkosi. Beautiful folder that is well made with great tolerances. Highly recommend it.

What knife do you carry!!!
I edc a spyderco. A carbon fiber/ S110V steel native five with a deep carry clip in the city and a jade G10/ M4 steel paramilitary 2 in the sticks.
You'll get a lot of suggestions but when it comes time to lay down some cash think if you want a knife to cut or a sharpened pry bar. Most "pocket knives" suggested are so thick and ground such they're ok to stab a car with but not as good to open your packages and cut some rope. For my money a pocket knife needs to be able to slice and hold an edge. Steel choice, heat treat and grind geometry matter.

EDC is a CRKT M16. When I'm camping I usually switch that out for a Buck 110.
Attached to my pack is a K-Bar.

I switch between a few, an Emerson, a few kershaw designs, zancudo,and an gerber covert. I also have a few ckrt folders. My edc is usually two knives one for the fine cutting jobs and one beater that can be used for prying and such.

Gerber Coyote for the pack and a leatherman for everyday.
Have a gorgeous Chris Reeve Pacific, but afraid to even use it, she's so nice.

Ive always liked Mora knives... I had a real nice one with a leather handle and hand guard that I got from my sister for a $20 Zellers Cooey 22. Heres mostly what I use now for a hunting/fishing knife

A Victorinox Climber and for more rugged tasks I switch between several different Spyderco’s and a ZT 350 that I picked up from Amazon when they were dirt cheap.

Leatherman Crater 33Tx, Its small enough to fit into the little right front pocket of you're jeans. Has flat head and phillips screwdriver flip outs and easy to sharpen. Can't leave home without it!

Kershaw Clash.
Cheap enough that’s I don’t mind if it gets ruined or lost, but still decent quality.
