Yes, I know there is a sub for knives but I see cool shit posted here in GD by people who aren't in the sub then forget what the title of the thread was and then get bored trying to search through every random knife related thread in GD. This is what I usually carry for long bike rides:   A waved Spyderco Delica and a Kwaiken by Dynamik Blades aka Smithy  ___________________________________________________ OTTOMH Easily available: ZT Semi-available (regular drops but will sell out): CRK Hinderer Koenig Then you get to midtech stuff that's much harder to snag, and there are too many to really list but guys like Les George Jonathan McNees Brad Southard Demko Of course there's the full production stuff: Spyderco Hogue Kershaw Microtech Protech Medford Olamic Emerson Spartan |

ZT 360 and Becker Eskabar. The becker is in a horizontal leather sheath a member here made for me.

Kershaw leek. If I'm not in uniform that's the knife I have on me. In uniform my folder is a Kershaw lifter, it's heavy and takes a beating. Also have a kabar TDI on the inside of my chest rig for work
Edit: almost forgot about the benchmade mini grip on my vest |

I've been getting a little retarded with the Midtechs lately.

I had a cheap sub-$20 folder that I can't remember the brand of packed in my "TSA approved lock" suitcase and when I arrived in Oahu in December it was gone. This is what I've been carrying recently (minus the MP5SD):

The PM2 is the knife I've wanted to pull the trigger on for so long but just haven't Buy one and you like it I promise. I bought a Benchmade Griptilian and wanted too like it, I carried it for 2 weeks, but sadly it is just too wide for me.  Now it sits in the safe in it's box. It is a very nice knife just not for me.

Thinking i need to buy myself a reward for the pain of doing my own taxes.
Hate the size and handles of the ZT350, but love the blade shape. I really dig that big, broad sharpened prybar. However, everybody says the 360 is fantastic, and it IS a limited edition... but i hate the blade shape on it. Someone convince me to get one or the other. |

I carry a ZT350 everyday/all day, if I have clothes on that have a pocket I have a ZT350 clipped to the pocket. Recently added a $50 RAT3 from the EE to my backpack/lunchbox. Havent used it to cut any sandwiches yet but I'm sure it'll come up at some point.

I carry two regularly:
1. Ban Tang Clinch Pick 
Mine is a later model with darker scales and a more deeply profiled edge. 2. Zero Tolerance 0566 
Neither are my pics. The CP is a defensive implement only. The ZT is more of a general purpose knife. |

I thought I was going to get one when they announced the S110v and M4 runs but I got distracted. Plus the blurple scales on the S110v are odd |

Stupid easy to maintain and take care of. Got the scotchbrite idea from a knife forum. Took about 5 minutes and left a nice brushed satin finish that I actually like more than the original beadblast. |
