In terms of pure pocket time, mine would be the Ladybug, hands down. That's just because I almost always carry a Ladybug with a small lanyard attached as a small backup knife.
As far as actual use, mine would probably be the Stretch 2 in VG-10. The only other 2 I can think of that I've carried nearly as much are the Sage 1 and regular production Manix 2. Those are the ones I've carried frequently over a longish period of time (almost a year). The ones that have been my most used EDC's the last several months are the Caly 3.5 and Para 2, hands down. Also, the Sage 3 has gotten a fair bit of pocket time as well.

Used this CPM-D2 Military for about 1 1/2 years together with a few other knives, but exclusively for about the last 6 months.
Bought second hand with a rattling loose blade and no edge to speak of.
Now it's nice & tight again with an early lockup and a reground edge that is kept sharp on a 1 micron diamond strop.
Still; i'm thinking of selling or auctioning it, otherwise i will probably never use the new S90V or the CPM-M4 versions that still lie dorment in their boxes, :D

It's uh..complicated. Always the Street Beat sheathed and strung on a Mercharness. But that's going to change as soon as I finish the sheaths and handles for my EVER GROWING collection of Mules. What I carry in my trouser pocket (front) lately has been the Gayle Bradley, which is a fantastic piece. It sort of replaced another fantastic piece- Police/PIG depending on what year we are talking about. BUT- I think it might be preempted by the Navaha which is on the way or at the very least go into rotation. Back right pocket usually get something small- either a spydie I don't know the name of or a CRKT folding RAZL (A very useful little devil). In cold weather especially, I carry a ZT350 in my left-hand jacket pocket (I'm a southpaw in case you haven't guessed). Even heavily gloved, I can deploy it instantly which is important to me since I often travel at times of the day where I am more liable to run into individuals that probably aren't looking to be my best friend (I hope Sal is listening here). I don't wear my Gerber belt dagger anymore but I've been rethinking that. Boot knives don't and never did do it for me and if I had a necker I'd probably fall on it and kill myself. The MAIN consideration is to stay outta range of Dr. Snubnose.
Most used EDC
As I have aged, find myself liking small knives. The LBK3 is always in my pocket.
