Basically, if I'm clothed I'm carrying an edge on me. If I walk out the door forgetting something it'll be my keys/wallet/cell phone or whatever before my knife. Been that way since Papaw gave me a Schrade LB-5 my 4th grade Christmas. I'm amazed at the dichotomy of people that ask me why I carry a knife around all the time (like it's a scimitar or something) and how often not only do I find use for a knife but have to help others cut/pry/open something.
So, anybody else EDC a blade of some sort?
I recently picked up a Spyderco Tenacious G-10. It has quickly become my favorite knife. About 30 bucks from Amazon.
Been carrying a Kershaw Ken Onion Rainbow Chive for the past 4 months, has held its edge surprisingly well. I prefer German knives to collect, Hen & Rooster, German Eye, Boker, old JA Henckels. Handles in pearl or stag and whittlers and canoe are my favorite styles
I got a Kershaw Burst pretty cheap on Woot a couple of weeks ago.

Pretty nice. Their "assisted opening" is pretty crazy. Reminiscent of a switchblade
My husband always has his (he's an electrician.) He's left more than one in an airport garbage can because it's automatic for him to carry it (and of course he can't get on the plane with it and it doesn't occur to him til AFTER we've checked our luggage, lol.)
