Not only a knife, a SOG Paratool [url]http://www.sogknives.com/multitools.htm[/url]. I carry it at all times however; when I do carry a knife it is a fully serrated Schrade cliphanger viper.

Spyderco clip it. Clips to the belt loop no sheath necessary. They made those auto's illegal in Michigan. Sure go figure in Motor city all you can find are cars with auto matic transmissions but auto knives and auto guns are out.

Buck fixed blade.
I only use it for hunting.
Got it as a Christmas present for my 14th B-day.
Exact same one I used to try to take down Big Foot with all those years ago. [:D]

I used to carry a Benchmade Emerson CQC-7, but that one got "lost." I now carry a Gerber Applegate/Fairbairn Covert. Of course, the little NRA Second Amendment Taskforce Victorinox Swiss Army is always in my pocket.

Looking to be able to buy a REAL Emerson eventually. Of course, I would just love a Gerber like I have, if it had the Emerson G-10 narrow scales, and a tighter action.

Semper Fi!

Beretta AirLight 30% serrated/skeletonized full-size in a horizontal nylon belt sheath; this is my BusDriversTool for use as a trolley-rope cutter, etc.

The bigger "woods" knife is the Cold Steel SRK; with the Ghurka Light in the plans soon.

AMEN!!

i got a shrade cliphanger. best 20$ i ever spent. had it for years. sharp as hell and i dont care what anyone else says. noting short of a switchblade opens faster. conflicts have been avoided when my adversary "gets freaked out by my switchblade" i have tried more expensive knives but i always go back to the shrade. i can open it with one hand and no fingers. just s flick of the wrist. the half sceraded edge cuts like hell. not hte toughtest knife i own, but the best for day to day use. i recommend one, the ycan be found for inder 15$
the shrade is good for everyday use BUT,

for more hostile carrying situtations i pack my FURY tanto boot knife. it might be the coolest knife i own. REALLY sharp, and the serraded edge is nasty. its a real badass

I used to carry a Benchmade/Emerson spec war model cqc 7.
Retired for a Emerson Commando with the opening hook, the fastest knife I have ever used including auto`s. The hook grabs the corner of the pocket and opens it as it is drawn from the pocket. The auto`s have to be in hand to be faster. The Commander flicks open effortlessly in the hand also.
Also carry a Gerber multi tool and a keychain swiss army.

I carry a Microtech Socom!! Used to have a cheap shrade that i really liked.

sssshhhhh...not too loud someone may hear you.

Actually I carry on duty a Spyderco Police Model (cuts seatbelts, boxes of flares perps, and my fingers, no problem!!!), and off-duty a Spyderco Q along with a Glock 26 for riding the subways going to and from Penn Station.

cutting perps, that just makes things bloody. I think those extra long mag lights do a better job.Plus you can always explain the bruises as"he ran & fell"[;)][;)]
