A Camillus Stockman my father gave me in 1953. The stag scales are worn smooth, but it still "walks and talks" like a new pocketknife. Razor sharp, too.

Usually a Spyderco Para 2, but occasionally a Kershaw Black Gulch

Carried the Kershaw Leek for like 10 years. Finally lost it last week. Ordered a new one with the composite blade. Has D2 on the cutting edge I like um. Single handed operation open and close. Pretty thin. Doesn't give you a big lump in your pocket. Doesn't cost 300.00.. dave The $10 Basspro version of this with the Chinese version of German AUS-8 Steel.

dave + 1,I like them,slim and sharp. I will up these plus one with +1 more. Hard to beat Kershaw clips. I carried a scallion but went to the smaller Chive for EDC. All American made Ken Onion designs. I never liked knives buried deep in my front pocket and went to smaller Case knives that could fit in the coin pocket. I evolved into smaller clip carries and won't look back. I like being able to open a knife with one hand even if wearing leather gloves. Convenient. I lost a blue chive and can't find another in blue. I got a replacement in silver as a Christmas gift from my daughter and didn't feel guilty about asking for one at that price.

I got you beat. This has been my EDC knife since the early 1980s. Hardly a day goes by when I don't use it for something. When it gets dull, it sharpens razor sharp again with ease. Gerber lockblade: It's not a tiny knife (2.5" blade). It just looks tiny next to that giant moth.

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.
