Right now a Spyderco Native, sometimes a Benchmade Bugout First Production Run.

All winter long it has been this Civivi Baby Banter. Love the little thing. Wish it wasn't Chinese.

Kershaw blur. I was a fan of the blackout but I don't think they make them anymore

Zero Tolerance 462.
Much like optics I buy very high quality USA made when possible.
OP knife has a poor blade profile with no belly but I guess it would be an OK letter opener. You're turning into a condescending prick. Just like Buzz. Are y'all buds?

I have a bunch and depending on my mood and where I'm carrying it could be one of at least a dozen. But if forced to pick one it would be the Hogue Deka. https://smkw.com/hogue-deka-tumble-clip-blk-g10We were in Boston last summer and I chose to bring this one in case I had to "lose" it. They are about the best cheap knife I've used. And I thought I was going to lose it. We were in line to see the USS Constitution. I didn't think about a metal detector there, but it set it off. I pulled it out and gave it to the Sailor working security. He looked it over and said, "That's not a knife". Keep it in your pocket and have a good day. https://smkw.com/kabar-dozier-folding-hunter-black
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Benchmade Mel Pardue 154CM steel. I don’t love the steel or the blade profile but it’s good enough and the knife has some sentimental value.

Benchmade Mel Osbourne Reverse Tanto is my current EDC.
I have others I carry for special purposes, such as hunting. Mostly Axis Lock Benchmades.

Adimanti Neformat 02. A buddy sent it to me as a birthday present. Never been a big knife guy but I love this thing. Im sure it’s Chinesium but shows made by Ganzo. Keeps a good edge. I carried a Buck Prince for years.

A bowhunter at heart but a gun guy at soul. I'll take craftsmanship, wood and blue steel over plastic and composite any day.

Buck 845 Vantage Force Schrade Slyte Kershaw Leek Case Sod Buster Kershaw Chive All reasonably priced USA made knives of decent quality. Here, as it is with scopes, it is easy to avoid crap made in communist China. The Schrade and the Kershaws open like butter. I like the part serrated part non on the Buck. The Slyte is thinner than the Kershaws. I wish it had a sharper point, but am pleased with it. The Sod Buster I have for sentimental reasons.

Spyderco Endura&Delica serrated wharncliffes here. Also have a combo edge Endura...that I've broken the clip off for the second time.(Cmon payday!). Have my old Ats55 steel endura from 199something the clips gone and won in pistol match for having the ugliest gun on the line. A 4 inch Satin Nickel taurus 66 with pretty Brazilian wood grips but absolutely the most horrid yellow/tan icky satin nickel in the history of the world. I cherish it because that's back when I was sane mostly.
Bangflop! another skinning job due to .260 and proper shot placement.

Mines a Kershaw Chill. My son gave it to me years ago. After using it a while, I liked it so much I bought a couple of spares, because I easily loose pocketknives.
