What kind of pocket knife do you guys carry? I have a little Gerber that I carry with about 3" blade. It's one of the kind of tacticool flip open knives with the straight and serrated edges on the blade and a nice little point. I have a CRKT M16 that I never carry because the screws that hold the clip on keep coming loose, and I have a Gerber knock off of an M16. I rarely use a pocket knife for anything, but I'm curious about what other people carry. |

I am currently on a Kershaw kick. I usually carry a Kershaw Skyline or JunkYard Dog I or II Other days a Kershaw Cyclone fits the bill. If I am at work and in scrubs then it is the Skyline as it is very light and I can clip it inside my collar (great for jogging or dog walking if you are wearing shorts). If I am going downtown late at night, then I might have a spyderco endura or Boker Gemini along with my Glock 33 or Colt Defender. Knives are like shoes for women, can't have to many. ETA: I love your motto about "doing right". It's hilarious when he says that and the old rebel lady LOLs at him. |
1) Zero Tolerance 0302 2) Emerson Super SOCFK 3)Emerson / Benchmade CQC-7 spec-war BTS 4)Emerson CQC-8 " BT 5)Emerson Mini Commander Not all at the same time of course, but i do carry 2, 1 for utility cutting and 1 for "other" cutting that hopefully never cuts anything, but it will always stay sharp that way in case i need it. |

I carry the same knife and also a Victorinox multi-tool. I practice taking out the Gerber but never use it as a 'utility' knife. That's why I carry the multi-tool. 
There is a shorter version which is around 3" but I found it too small for my hand and the blade is a little on the short side.

Benchmade 920 is my usual go to. My favorite larger folder is the Benchmade Rift. I love that damn knife. I plan on getting an Infidel soon but hate that I can't carry it legally here in TX. It's both a "dagger" and an auto. Oh, I am also a fan of the ZT knives (a little pricey though) and the newer Boker fixed blades like the Pry Mate ( A buddy of mine carries one with the sheath static corded to his belt loop clipped IWB).
Daniel P.S. As you can see I am a huge Osborne fan, wish I could afford his real knives. |

There are rarely days I don't use a blade for something. I always have a small Kershaw Chive with the clip removed in the pocket and I typically carry a Kershaw tanto Blur or SOG Flash II, however when wearing jeans I like the Spyderco Endura with Emerson's Wave. |
