"Picked up a Maxpedition (copy), recently, to carry more "stuff". Foreign knockoff, but it's pretty decent quality. I would have liked to find it in the left side carry, for when I'm using my cane, but it doesn't get too much…"

Emory Alexander replied to Jan Carter's discussion January Give Away Contest ...in other words...win a knife"Congratulations!"
Emory Alexander replied to Jan Carter's discussion January Give Away Contest ...in other words...win a knife"I don't know if this would qualify as my "favorite" knife memory, but it is one of my earliest, and it includes my first knife and my dad, so it is a cherished memory. My older cousin gave me my first knife, a 1980's Case bone…"
"Right now I have lucky 13 knives on me. Some food related and others for other tasks. I know, I know I'm a fool, but different blades for different uses......"
David Gallup replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"I mix it up a lot but my current daily driver does not like pocket clips and I don't want to screw up the leather interior! So I've been carrying a Schatt and Morgan slim trapper with buffalo horn scales. It's a great…"
Clint Thompson replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"Like David, I too carried one or more pocket knives all the way from grade school to this day. I gave a speech on how to clean a 1897 Winchester Shotgun in College. No one blinked an eye about me having this shotgun on the campus. After I graduated…"
David Gallup replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"I carried a pocket knife to school every day from grade school through college. I even took my shotgun to high school to give a speech on gun safety. Of course the principal knew about and OK'd the shotgun. I used to hitch…"
John Kellogg replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club" I have been carrying a small Schrade 3OT single blade lock back for the last 20+ years, It covers most all of my needs. I carry a small Schrade IXL brown jigged bone single blade lock back with silver bolster if I have to get dressed…"
Jan Carter replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"Seems a good many of us carry a traditional even if we are carrying something more modern to go with it. I have been carrying a whittler for the past few months but that is not unusual, it is a pattern of choice for me. The funny thing…"
Clint Thompson replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"I hear you Doug. Since I was 8 years old I have carried a knife....here...there and everywhere. Remember, cut deep, long and continuous."
Doug Webber replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"I grew up on a farm, so having a traditional folding pocket knife was second nature. I would bet that at least 90% of the boys in high school carried a pocket knife. When I was in the Navy, and afterwards as an electrician, I usually had a Gerber…"

"Until a few months ago my EDC was a Case Mini Blackhorn lockback and a Leatherman Micra. But then I decided to do a daily use test of a Rough Rider RR718 work knife.
The reason for and the results of the test can be seen…"
"Never anymore without at least one trad, usually two, one larger and one smaller to not scare the "sheep". Usually what most would consider too many, but I like them. I like different knives for different tasks. They also…"
Clint Thompson replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club"When I am not testing out a product for an article, I carry my Case single blade trapper with liner lock and pocket clip. I have two. Sometimes I also carry a Moore Maker of the same flavor without the pocket clip. I carry this in…"
Featureddead_left_knife_guy replied to Emory Alexander's discussion Do you feel the need to EDC a traditional folder? in the group EDC Club
"Emory, the traditional patterns I grew up around, along with those that I owned, tended to be pretty low quality, &/or small, &/or dull or otherwise unimpressive. In other words, cheap crap, almost all of which was upstaged by my…"
