Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Show n Tell - your EDC Knife

Wait a minute - this darling Zancudo Mosquito journeys all the way across the Atlantic, but doesn't warrant being your EDC?







FC

That, Sir, is a call out, if I ever had one...



I will have you know, that little Zancudo has been around the block as a EDC - twice, that is.

It is just so, that there are so many orange handled knives and so few days...

Nice Randalls Jorge.

But that book sucks.



Travis

Now you did it...

Somebody mistakenly told that dude he could write.

I'd rather hit my toes with a hammer.




Travis

Yes, that period writing can get tedious. He wasn't the only one. But hell, what do I know, to me, Hemingway was horrible.

BenchMade 330 or 530.

Buck Muskrat trapper.


Last thing my father ever gave me.

"...the wine was bad, but not dull. It took the enamel off your teeth, and left it on the roof of your mouth..."

That's a great knife.

A buck Stockman was my every day pocket knife for years. Bought it at the West Berlin PX in 1972. The corners wore holes in my fatigue pockets and I lost that knife three times, but each time it found its way back to me. Once lost it in the Bavarian woods and a couple of days later a guy in the platoon said he'd found a knife just outside our tent. I described it completely and he said it must be mine and handed it to me.

Great little knife with three very useful blades. And they stay Sharp with a capital S. It stays out on my reloading/work bench these days and still gets used quite a lot.

Speaking of Randalls:



technically Chronologically it does not go with a Walker, but I usually tote it when carrying a muzzleloader. Finished a pig with it, too.

I have a Model 25 on order, which will arrive sometime this decade...

Wasn't the title of this thread, EDC (Every Day Carry) knives?

Been carrying various Victorinox Swiss Army knives my whole life, I just love them.

Recently got an upgrade for a birthday present and I'm liking it. It's the One Handed Trekker NS (non serrated).

Knife in the photo has the serrations, but otherwise it's the same knife.

This is the same knife that the Swiss and German Army both issue, with the exception neither of the military knives have the tweezers and toothpick...just couldn't live without those two little accessories.

It's a model 690 that uses 154 CM it's no longer available so I should probably get something else.

How many actually carry their EDC? Lot of shiny new knives being posted.

31 years and counting..

Below are the ones that are used. Usually a folder and a neck knife. They go on as soon as I get dressed.

This was my pocket EDC until I lost it a little while back...still mad at myself about that:



This has taken it's place in the pocket:



The blue Bobwhite is usually around my neck...folder used to be an EDC but I haven't carried it in a while:



When working outside I usually have this Skifa for serious cutting, not a true EDC but gets used hard and often:

My new Swiss Army replaced my old Swiss Army. Since I've been a teen, I've carried a pocket knife every day, and still do today.

I've had a multitude of pocket knives, including Case, CRKT, Kershaw, Buck, Gerber, Spyderco, etc...

But I always come back to the Swiss Army Knife because I use more than just the blades.

Damn this thread is going to hurt my wallet!!! Lol
Nice posts gang. JMC - I bet that loss did hurt. Nice blades.
No doubt a few above have ALOT of history behind them, others just beginning

My EDC is a Jantz 1095 carbon steel blank, with elk horn scales off an elk I shot in the crazy mtns.
Stitched a crossdraw sheath, old school.
