Day to day, 3 sort of. For a very long time I've carried a .. well, not always the same one, wore 2 out .. Gerber LST, 2nd to smallest size. Earlier ones had pretty decent steel, current ones I'm not so happy with but WTF it'll cut cardboard and tape thus saving the edge of my other knives for more important things. "Sort of" is a Leatherman Micra with a fairly tiny blade. It cuts fairly well. I've gutted salmon up to 30 pounds with it. Those are "in pocket" knives. Newest addition is a Benchmade Mini Bugout which hangs on the inside of my pocket by its clip. I had a full sized Bugout (still do, but don't EDC with it, it's in a small pack) but it proved too long for pocket carry and dug into me if I bent forward.

Day to day .. if I'm hiking .. I usually add a Cold Steel SRK or Master Hunter depending on which day pack I grab.


Anyone who thinks there's two sides to everything hasn't met a M�bius strip.

Here be dragons ...
