Hmm... Interesting question. Current list of favorite current production knives goes as follows:

1. Paramilitary 2
2. Manix 2
3. Stretch 2
4. Native 5
5. UKPK
Because desolate places allow us to breathe. And most people don't even know they're out of breath.

I'll keep mine the same as the other thread. For now at least. Other models move in and out. So this is always a fluid list. Too much great. In no particular order:

1.) Gayle Bradley 2
2.) Caly 3.5
3.) Military
4.) Manix 2
5.) UKPK Salt

Honorable mention to the Endela. Just simple and effective at it's job. I don't like having multiples of any model. I have 3.

Also, honorable mention to the Smock and Sliverax. Fun designs and both have a lot of what I like in different ways for an EDC knife.

Don't limit yourself to 5.

This is a tough one, as I have a set that are great for work and a completely different set for home/out and about/adventures. If I had to pick only 5 altogether it would be:

1) Caribbean (leaf) PE

2) Police 4 LW K390 SE

3) Dragonfly Salt SE

4) Dragonfly Wharncliffe K390

5) Manix 2 XL (in cruwear)

I’d supplement these with a fixed blade from another brand (probably a PW Customs Tramp and Harp), as none of the currently available fixies from Spyderco float my boat. The UKPK in Magnacut would bump out a Dragonfly, but it’s not available to buy yet 🤷🏼‍♂️
