I am currently using the Ontario RAT 1 as an EDC, it is a very nice folder that I can use without regrets because it is only $25 bucks. I love its blade shape, fast deployment and it is razor sharp. The Rat 1 is little bit over 4 oz but you can reduce its weight by drilling holes on the scales. I also carry one or two back up blades, these are mostly high end blades that I treat as Queens.

I have been EDCing a Rick Hinderer XM-18 3.5" and a cKc 1.0 on my neck, occasionally I will wear a cKc Pendant knife on my neck instead.
I also have a innova flashlight tucked under a piece of bicycle innertube around the sheath. Also have a few countycomm items on my mechanics keyring, like a micro widgy bar, another innova light, a Swiss tool key, and an S Biner attachment point.

I have recently replaced my Zero Tolerance 0200 with my slightly older Benchmade MiniGrip.  This is partly due to a change in wallets.  I got the "simple wallet" from Saddleback Leather and have found that I really enjoy going light and simple.  A credit card a few bills and my driver's licence is all that's in it.  I've kept it in my front pocket (I've been running around in a very busy pickpocket packed public for the last month) and this requires a smaller knife.

 

The MiniGrip is a delight as long as you smooth out the FRN scale under the pocket clip.  Otherwise you go through jeans something fierce.

I've been on a Bradley Alias kick.  Picked up the LE version with G-10 scale on the non-locking side a month or so ago, and just got the hard to find blue Alias in the mail a couple of days ago. These are great knives, here's a couple of pics:

I wish everyone a Happy and SAFE New Years!

hey Guys,

my EDC is one of my own design and making. as a knife maker it is a wonderful pleasure to be able to carry something that you have made. i have always wanted a neck knife, and after buying a few, i decided to make my own.

i call it the CJS Ironclad. it is  6 1/2" overall with a 3" blade, black G10 handles, and Kydex sheath. the blade is made from 1095.

I always have my Havalon Tracer on me. I put it in my shirt pocket if I have a shirt on that has one otherwise pants pocket works just as well. Then for a larger knife I either have my Kershaw Rake in my pocket or my Kershaw Ripcord on my belt.

610's a big knife...

 

I have a lot of Benchmades, so frequently carry something different daily, unless it's something new and I'm breaking it in. Most of this week it's been a 790 Subrosa, and today it's a blue Alias II. I have a thing for Ti framelocks.

It's not the same knife everyday. It's always more than -1- knife at the time.

I like to rotate: Al Mar SERE2000, CRK Umnumzaan, Strider SMF CC, Benchmade 755 MPR and some sort of SAK.

Also on and off a Benchmade 610 Rukus is my compagnion. But after a while I always put it a side because of its size.

yes it´s one of the good things about sharing the knife interest i think, combining our collection, although i dont think the mrs will let me borrow her precious knifes, i am quite clumsy and my stuff tends to get a good beating. i also think we are into some different kind of knives, i like spyderco and emerson and that kind of thing, she hates spyderco and wants the likes of a kershaw leek rainbow, :-)although i am the one going for all the colored knifes, just cant stand having EVERY knife in black g-10. funny though makes for an interesting collection
