Since this is a 'post from the past' I though I would post a couple photos of the "Boy Scout Victorinox that I still carry daily. Laser inscribed on the main blade with my name, "Frank Mitchell", on one side and "Troop 965 Webster MD" on the other, LOTS of use have made most unreadable.
I don't carry the Kershaw Blackout I mentioned in my earlier post (4 years ago). I damaged the blade. I found out Kershaw would replace the blade for $10 as long as the knife wasn't a second. Then I learned the knife I found was a second. So I bought a Kershaw Link. I really like the convenience of being able to open & close a knife one handed.
While it seldom gets carried I also have a Case Sodbuster Jr. It is for times that I am dressed in a way that does not lend itself to having a knife clipped on my pocket.

in every coat I have there is a traditional folder in the pocket, stockman pattern, Barlow or a Swiss Army knife. Pocketknives are like guns, they just keep accumulating.

Today I carried a buck 119 auto elite, an old Benchmade and an Emerson CQC7.
I just about always carry a buck 110 of some kind. I have a Bark River City Knife I carry right often. A 110 is hard to beat for an everyday knife. I know they are not fancy and tac to cool but they work and have been for a long time. The ones I use are either carbon steel or S30V blades.

I had a nice collection as a kid. The Barlow was always my favorite. Eventually they were all lost or broken so I treated myself to a Case Mid-folding Hunter. I loved that knife but lost it in a park playing tag with my kids. It was perfect for everything. The bone had a red patina from using it to dress a deer when I forgot my Buck 110.
Now I feel naked if I don't have my Leatherman on me. I use it literally daily.

Carry this every day. Clipped to left front pants pocket. Don't leave home without it!

Probably one of these. The Case Sodbuster Jr. I have been carrying in some form since 1975. This is #3. First one broke (Case replaced it) #2
I gave to my son.

Good chioice! Carried the Trident tanto for years and bought the "improved" Trident AT-XR early this year. Hefty in the pocket with the steel liners added but lock up is suppose to be tougher. D-2 steel should be enough.

Never had a pocket knife until recently, but my first knife, I bought when in the Boy Scouts when we were about to go on the 75 mi. Silver Moccassin hike. I bought a full tang Colonial Knife. Simple enough. Never really had to use it, so gave it to my oldest son as a memento.
Only in my old age have I acquired a couple of various knives. Throwing Knives sets, unknown? Buck 110, EDC Barrage, Hunting Nimravius and a Topps Air marshall.

Lowe's finest. I loose them too often to carry anything too nice.

Right now I am carrying a "Jaguar" folding pocket knife that fits nicely in the back pocket of my jeans. It locks in the open position, and has a "thumb button" on the top of the blade to allow you to apply pressure when needed.
The two I carry that I just shared in the knife section of the forum:
I have shown the Ken Onion CRKT before. The Spyderco Delica is one I used to keep at my desk at work just in case I forgot to pack a knife in and needed one, but working from home and not going in I carry it quite a bit. I love that it is small enough for pocket carry while being big enough to be a serious working knife and I do prefer lock blades in knives.
