What's your most useful Spydie?
Strictly for usefulness, it's probably my old Jester Micarta, which is on my keychain and, therefore, always with me. As for other usefuls, probably one of the Spydercos in my current EDC rotation: Cat CF, Air, vintage Cricket Tuffram, and Techno. For "hard use" around the house, it's my trusty Para 1 SE.

For me it has to be the K05P Small Utility Knife. Granted, it doesn't live in my pocket for hours on end, but it's the only knife I've used multiple times every single day since the day I got it.

My "most useful Spydie" would need to include two knives. At the moment I have a D'fly2 in my pocket and Sage4 on my belt. I also have a neck sheath holding a Manbug. NOTE: Hope to have a kydex neck sheath for my D'fly in a few days. I needed to open a drink while in Wal Mart with my GB once. The blade was too big to use without grabbing the blade so the D'fly (or Manbug) would have been a better choice. But, as often I find myself cutting a semi-large limb from one of the trees in my yard and the GB or Sage4 would be my preferrence. The smaller knife is used most often. But, if I could only carry one it would be the larger because the larger knife will get the small knife jobs done better than the small knife getting the large knife jobs done.
I suppose the Techno would be a nice choice to cover my description. Except for blade length. Since there is always an "except for" in these conversations or decisions I think I'll be a two knife guy most of the time. Shoot, I bought the dang things, I might as well at least carry them around. :D

Very true. This would sum up my EDC. My Yojimbo may not be the most all around versatile, but I don't need that much versatility in my EDC because of what and how I use my knife the most.chuck_roxas45 wrote:My most used and most useful are two different knives...

I would say the Delica4 is my most useful and most carried, but I keep a green Tenacious at the job as a beater and it might actually be able to boast a larger volume of cutting than the D4. It's probably a common phenomenon, but neither of these is my favorite, which goes to my Manix XL. If the apocalypse was starting, and my house falling down, I would grab the XL and run. The apocalypse is scheduled for Friday, right? So maybe I'll just be prepared with several...
I had to work the XL into this post somehow.

Salt I PE for me too. Most of my leisure time involves the water is someway, whether that be lakes, rivers, oceans, or just plain sweat. Whether working in the yard and getting sweaty or fishing in the Chesapeake, I find myself reaching for my Salt, knowing it won't be bothered by whatever grossness I through at it. Therefore, to me, it is the most useful.
I've considered getting a Salt SE to supplement it, but I wish the good folks at Spyderco would change their mind and make a Salt Dyad. I'm still hoping.... It would be the perfect (most used and most useful) knife for me.
