How many knives do you pack?

#1

Post by pcguy23 »

How many knives do you carry with you daily?
A Delica rides shotgun in my pocket at work everyday and in my tactical bag I have a ZDP189 Dragonfly, a Cat-G10, a ZDP189 Manbug, and a leek I've had for years.
Oh, and recently added an Esee Candiru.
I mention the other brands because the Spyderco's outnumber them

2, a Delica or DF sized one in my pocket and a larger size IWB.
Bacon. Sometimes beer, but mostly bacon. I like Spydercos.

2 at most, anything more is overkill in my opinion. It's usually a SE Endura or SE Delica ZDP and a Manbug ZDP for work. On the weekend I carry one of my nicer CF spydies and the Manbug.

Today I am carrying three Spydies and a SAK. This is fairly normal for me but I rotate my carry knives almost everyday so this is just today's carry.

My right rear pocket is home to a Manix2 Cruwear today.
My carpenter pocket has a Chapparal clipped to it.
My watch pocket is carrying my Ladyhawk.
My left rear pocket is housing my Victorinox Craftsman.

One or two depending on my mood and plans for the day.

That of course does not count my SAK and multi tool.
On my radar: 110V Military, Police 4 and some sweet Rex 45 Military action.

Newest Spydies: S90v Ti Military, Pacific Salt and a special Kiwi.

Around the house, usually none. Mostly because there's no need, since there's almost always at least one within arms reach, usually more. Sitting here at my computer desk, typing this, I count 7 within arms reach. Pretty sure there are at least 3 near my recliner in the living room (not counting the curio cabinet full of Kiwis or the katana on top of it), 2 near my bed, and one near the"chair" in the "library".

Around the yard I carry at least one, sometimes two. When I'm dressed to venture past my property line, at least two, usually three. Plus a handgun and, ever since Son of Cujo moved into the neighborhood, pepper spray if I'm walking Bear.

Am I the only one who read this post and only processed "curio cabinet full of Kiwis"?

Usually two: one main knife clipped in the pocket, and a Ladybug in the watch pocket. Three if you count the little SAK on my keychain.

One for the office, two for out and about
Warhammer 40000 is- basically- Lord Of The Rings on a cocktail of every drug known to man and genuine lunar dust, stuck in a blender with Alien, Mechwarrior, Dune, Starship Troopers, Fahrenheit 451 and Star Wars, bathed in blood, turned up to eleventy billion, set on fire, and catapulted off into space screaming "WAAAGH!" and waving a chainsaw sword- without the happy ending.

4, my main carry rotates every day but today I am rocking the sage 1. The other 3 I carry every day are the cold steel kudu in my front left pocket, the victorinox classic in my cargo pocket, and one of those stupid folding credit card knives in my wallet. And in the winter I carry 5 because I add a neck knife.

I carry two knives Monday through Friday. (Usually a Dragonfly Salt PE and Manbug PE). I also always have a Ladybug SE and a Swiss Army Rambler on my keychain.

Just one... Usually a smaller knife for work (3" blade or less), lately it has always been a Spyderco, however many other knives have filled the bill in the past. The Manix or a fixed blade come out when there is to be farm/yard work or hiking to be done on the weekend. If a second knife comes along on a hike it'll be in a pack for food prep etc.
