Wouldn't say I have a favorite as I like to rotate everything through but a Para2, Gayle Bradley, Caly3.5SB are most likely to be in my pocket at any given time. The Para2 being what is primarily carried as I have to make sure they all get a little love.
Current :spyder: : Para2's Brown, Blue & Orange, Etched Spin, CF Caly3 ZDP189, Gayle Bradley, UKPK Orange G10, Manix2 M4, Sage 1, Caly 3.5 in Super Blue, Urban Orange G10

This month it's the CF ZDP Stretch; switching to the CF Caly 3.5 for times when discreet carry is a priority.

Last month it was the Sprint G10 Endura; again switching to Caly when appropriate.

The month before it was the Starmate.

The month before that it was the...

At work I carry a Millie S30V, for other stuff like around town/out to dinner I want a Bradley Air because I love M4, or possibly the Des Horn in S30V.

To be honest, my favorite carry knife is the one I've got in my pocket at any given moment... and that changes every day or more than once a day sometimes. I love my knives!

Welcome Schneib, after 20 years passionately carrying a good pocketknife I prefer a linerlock. At this moment I like a Millie or my GB but I have a Starmate coming up. G10 or CF is ok, carbon steels are favorite at this moment. Don´t doubt too much, just carry and enjoy....

I used to always have my G-10 Jester on me as that was my only small knife, but I just got a ZDP Ladybug which sometimes kicks it out. At the moment, I am partial to my MeerKat because it matches my sweatpants (I have been sick and they are just so warm) but also like my Yo2, Captain, Caly3.5 SB, Techno, it's hard to choose just one.

Older GIN-1 Endura with the integral FRN clip. Still performs, what can I say ?

Thank you everybody who welcomed me! I was thinking about ordering a Military or a Gayle Bradley. I would go for the Para 2 but those are back ordered for awhile. I really want to try out the M4 on the Bradley, but I like the Military cause it's USA made. What would you guys pick first? (I will get both eventually)

The Military is awesome, I happened to get lucky and now have one in M4. IMO the Military is a must have.

Good question. You can pick the one that appeals to you more at any moment and you won't go wrong. And since you're getting both eventually...you are in an excellent position. :D

Lately, it's a Szabo and Sage 1 combo. For work, I carry a para 2 and a dragonfly H1. If it's a suit night, I go with CF balance and something like Zawada or Viele.
