I seem to find a different knife every year or so that is going to be the "one" for pocket carry.
Had some I've liked and had a couple upper end folders, but I've always carried and used a simple sodbuster more than anything else.

Best $12 deer/hog field dressing knife on the planet - I have bought dozens for xmas gifts with nary a complaint and cleaned as many as 6 hogs before touching the edge. I carry 2 in my hunting bag at all times. Tried a Busse Game Warden once and it never even made it through one deer, but this little cheap blade has made it through as many as 3 deer without a touch-up.

I have an old precise deer slayer from Japan that I like a lot as well as a boker plus Doxier drop point.

I carried a sod buster jr for years, love'em but the sak farmer is exactly the same size with more stuff. There's a few guys that mod swiss army knives, one does a pocket clip, I would like one of those.

I can't go without a Spyderco Delica stainless plain-edge. Perfect size for EDC, opens fast in case of emergency, is ergonomic, and solid as a rock!!
