I need a new pocket knife…. go

When I was in the shop Spyderco PM3, now that I’m in the office Zero Tolerance 0230.

For work I carry ZT 0350 or Kershaw Emerson 6k or 7k folders as they are beefy enough to do a little bit of prying if needed.
Carried a Blur for years and it’s beat to hell but still fires hard. Everything else it’s usually a Microtech Ultratech or other assisted/otf |

Victorinox Executive—sharp, sharp scissors.
When closed—you can safely run with scissors. |

Lots of great choices.
Some days it’s a classic larger Victorinox Medium I go spiderco like the native or Kershaw Blur Or an older bitchmade that is pre-public stupidity. If I want larger I may grab the Gerber Fast06 |
|
I have hundreds of pocket knives but I rarely carry anything besides Bugouts and Griptilians.
|
|
Unless it's assisted opening, I'm not carrying it.
Kershaw, in your flavor. |
|
For most people's uses, there isn't a better folder made than the 940 or 943. The company politics are a different matter and I'll never buy another new Benchmade, but I still carry a 94X every day.

I've carried a small regular sebenza since 2008.
I've got beefier knives, but I need something I can wear in slacks or suit pants for work. |
|
Everybody hates them but I love my benchmark bugout. Upgraded it to tritium inserts on g10 scales from glow rhino.

This one sits in and clips on the coin pocket on a pair of jeans pretty nicely. |

What usually rides in my pocket these days is a Skallywag Tactical MDV Folder. Nice and slim, pocket opening, locks into the hand very well.
If it’s not that, it’s a Fox karambit, Kizer Sheepdog XL, Kizer Mattox, Quartermaster flipper, or Artisan Cutlery Proponent. |

Spyderco Military or a Kershaw Blur. Depends on what pants I'm wearing that day. I prefer the Military, but I have gigantic hands, and it's one of the few pocket knives I've found that's big enough for me to hold comfortably.

Off time I carried a para 2. I swear that 350 looks like it had a bomb dropped on it. To bad, because its apparently a collector now. |

View Quote This one is nice, but I prefer its brother the ZT 0462 CF |

Buck 110 or 112 Slim Select or Slim Pro, depending on if you expect it go get beat up or you want something a little nicer.
The Buck 722 Spitfire is a very affordable EDC option. Slim profile, light weight, good if you prefer a hole over a thumbstud. Close cousin to the 112. Buck 040 Onset of you prefer something with a frame lock and flipper tab. Very slick knife. Haven't picked one up, yet, since I just don't think I'd give it the pocket time it deserves. Cold Steel has had some excellent options in the past. Don't know what their quality is, post-GSM. Carried a Recon-1 for ages, still love it. Grabbed an Espada XL recently, still seems decent. Have a Counter Point XL on order, so we'll see how things are holding up before contracts start ending and all manufacturing moves to CHOY-NAH. |
