Street Beat or SE Pacific Salt.
SE Pacific Salt still sees more pocket time than anything else. Thought about carrying my Manix XL today since it's been a while....once I felt the weight difference I unclipped it and grabbed my Pac Salt :D

If I could only keep one it would have to be this one. The signature really means a lot to me, and gives it a lot of sentimental value. Oh, and I guess it's also okay as a user :D

GB2 :)
Changed my mind, Police 4, tactical and practical :)
How do you find the tip of the police 4? Is it similar to the endura tip or more the military tip? Thanks.

I'd say more Military, the 4 is almost perfect for its size and with a Lynch long clip it disappears in your pocket. :)

I'd be still and will probably forever be torn between Stretch 1 and Endura 4 ffg...and for the steel I'd choose Hap40, but only slightly over VG10.
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

I was going to pick the UKPK s110v - but if I could only have one, I would probably want a lock for the 5-10% of the time a little extra safety is needed.
So I would choose the s110v Para 3. Funny thing - I don't even own one yet.
When I quote myself, is it like talking to myself? :eek:
One year later - my most carried is the s110v Para3. I whole heartedly agree with my year old self :D
btw - the s110v UKPK is a close second

Stretch 1 with FRN and VG10. Also like the burnt orange Hap40 version.

Perfect ergo's, perfect size, lightweight but strong due to nested liners. Versatile blade design. Plus all the advantages of a back lock: positive blade retention, no accidental release, intuitive/easy to use, strong, durable.

if i had to choose one spyderdco, it would probably be the caribbean, which is weird because i don't own that knife and i'm not really that interested in it. however, it has the leaf blade of my favorite (manix 2), the saltiness of my pacific and native salts, and the compression lock that i've been enjoying on my yojimbo. since it combines important aspects from my favorite spydercos and gives a good length of blade, it would probably be my one pick. maybe i'll get one some day.

One? Only one?

Well since I carry my BHQ exclusive M4 para3 predominantly, I guess I’d go with that. Or maybe the CRUWEAR para 3. Or a pm2.... dangit. I reject your reality!!!
