Re: Office Workers: What do you EDC?
Office/laboratory environment.
For a few years, now: PM2s and Para3 LWs in various flavors, usually bright or fun colors if available which makes them “fun” instead of “scary” when handing them to someone for their apple or avocado.
Having said all that, I’ve been carrying a Kapara at the office since I got it in December - handsome and easy on the pants. And I’ve been carrying my new Military 2 in my backpack everywhere… the M2 swaps into my pocket as soon as I get to my truck.

Like others, I usually carry a SAK in addition to a Spydie. 99% of the time, the SAK is a Cadet because it doesn't draw any negative attention and it's handy for other tasks. The other knife used to be a Para 3 LW until I got my first the Sage 5 LW and one of them is in my pocket almost every day I'm in the office. I am looking forward to a Sage 6 LW.

Re: Office Workers: What do you EDC?
I carry a Delica with no clip in pocket (just my preference...while I'm a desk worker, it's at a construction/manufacturing company in Texas so I don't need to worry about being discreet - some guys carry ESEEs on their belts, I've seen someone pull out a Microtech auto, etc.)
I always have a 58mm SAK on my keyring, and I keep an Opinel #7 in my desk for lunchtime use.
