I find that having a Ladybug or smaller knife as well makes for easier use in confined spaces. When sitting in the car while stationary and opening mail that Manix2 is slightly cumbersome ;) .

Nothing wrong with multiple carry! I typically have 4 blades on me..

My main EDC (Currently been rocking a Caly 3.5 SB), a Ladybug Salt on my keychain, a Flatbyrd in my wallet, and usually one of my other newest purchases that I want to ogle and play with - often gets put in my backpack.

I also have a Util-key on my keys which has a "blade" on it... I guess....
Too many Spydies to list!

Right on with that!

I handed over my Para 2 once to a non knife guy and thought better of it as soon as it left my hands. It was amusing though, to watch a grown man struggle with trying to figure out how to close it :)

As a former boy scout I stiill have the motto we used when camping firmly in my head "Better to have and not need than to need and not have".

In the pockets today there was an FG Delica, little blue Dyad, ZDP Ladybug and an H1 ladyug on a quick release to my keys. Oops forgot the Bug in the wallet :) In my lunch bag there was the modified vg-10 Mule and pointy Caspian salt.

It's enjoyable for me to have different blades suitable for different tasks available even if I don't have a need that day to use them. It's also fun to show them to other folks that appreciate the sharp pointy things even though they mostly carry Kershaw or very cheap. :)

Ahoy hoy
Nothing at all wrong with carrying more than one. On most days I carry three, but never less then two. Two is one and one is none, right? I'm not sure what that makes three, but it's likely better than one.

Thanks, Doc! I've seen Mark Goldsworthy's work shown by my Pekiti-Tirsia instructor, so I was interested in it, but didn't know by whom it was. Yeah it is a perfect SD knife, there's no arguing about that. Thank you again for the info
