What blade did you EDC today?

This flat and small sized EDC lives in my shoulder pocket.

The curved blade excels in opening packages.

It's fugly but totally functional! Did I mention it's cheap?! LOL

Today's carry is a Fox Sea Master

...and no, you don't have to be a sailor or a commercial fisherman to carry one of these.

I mostly carry it at my northern cottage, and it would be especially handy in rural environs. I have several. You can get this type of knife for as low as $10 (not this one). The wharncliff blade is great for cutting rope, water pump hosing, pruning etc. And I do use that slot for loosening shackles.

But the best part is the marlin spike. Designed for loosening knots and mending nets, it does more than that. Poking, shimming, digging, gouging, just what we all need. How often have you messed up a blade because you needed to pry something and the proper tool wasn't at hand. This spike is indestructible. The perfect tool.

The blade and the marlin spike both have their own seperate frame locks.

(Today I ordered a BM 477 Emissary...can't wait)

Nice!

I’ve had my eye on that Vallotton since it was released. Just never pulled the trigger.
I guess I should do something before it gets discontinued.

Bunch of gorgeous blades in this thread……
I have been looking at knives since the start of this thread, I hate you all!

I’m still EDC’ing the Vantage Force Pro :smiley: (*for now)

Today was a Strider clone day. Looks exactly like a Strider, right down to the Bos heat treated flame logo. Cost less than $17. Seen here hanging out with my Texas Poker.

Very nice, I’ll have to get one sooner or later and definitely not at Strider prices.

This is my only Kershaw knife.

Hmmm. I'm trying to decide on tomorrow's carry, but I can't figure out which is the real DPX H.E.S.T., and which is the $10 chinese knockoff DPX.

I wonder if that Masonic symbol inlaid into the grip is a clue?

...or the lack of a massive slab of titanium?

I sure hope I get this figured out.

The Vantage has left my pocket!

I’m not sure it will unseat the Vantage for long though, lol

Yikes!!!

Funny you posted that today, just last night I was thinking about how I haven’t bought a knife in 2014 and a person owes me some money and I was thinking about getting a HEST when they pay me. I’m gonna try to find me a mill spec with Sleipner (but when I looked at them last [months ago] the mill spec was hard to find then.

Lots of great looking knives on here. I nearly always carry this SRM-733. Since I frequently tend to misplace things, I keep it attached to my light and the size makes it more difficult to misplace. And if I do lose it, I’m only out $10 or so.

BRADLEY ALIAS II

This knife is affectionately known as the "poor mans sebenza", although it is neither budget or affordable by a "poor man"

Released by the Bradley Cutlery Co. as an alternative when sebenza production was sparse and sporadic.

The 733 is one that I’ve not got round to buying yet but the Laix pen, I have several of. I bought some genuine Parker refills for one thinking it would give better and longer lasting performance, they lasted, 2 of them, three days and I don’t write a lot. Back in with the supplied Chinese refills and they’re still working well a couple of months later, as I said I don’t write much but I like the pens, much better value than some others that buy these in and re-badge them.

Fresh in the mail Kershaw Emerson CQC 2K…which at the end of the day promptly bit me as I put my hand into my pocket. Every new knife has to draw first blood.
