Daily Selection Process

I vacillate between quite a few models, but mostly I carry the CE Al Herbst. If I am feeling rather jaunty for the day, I'll pick something a bit larger or just different. Sometimes, it takes a good 5- 10 minutes before I can pick the day's winner! :rolleyes: :o

Today, for example, the C65 Lum SE is along for the ride. The Ladybug II is always on the keyring, so I almost forget about it, except when I need it, of course!

I carry a Blue SE Dodo for work, it is as someone else said a box cutter on steroids and I like it for that reason. Off work, which I am for now as a stay home dad I carry a SE Endura FRN with the integral clip, I picked up two of them off ebay recently for cheap. I also like the FRN SE Rescue Jr. I bought a couple of weeks ago, my wife liked it so much I bought one for her "bug out purse" as she works in NYC and a sharp blade combined with a good flashlight, might be a good thing nowadays. ;) .

Spyderco Standard Economy. Since 85. Sometimes I'll go with the Cara Cara instead.

more and more the Salt 1 is becoming the regular pick. Can't go around how much I love the stainless quality of it, the tip and so on. Quite pleased to see a serrated edge can peel an apple quite good and sharpen a pencil with some care. Gee, I'm becoming less and less of a plain edge guy!

Around the yard/garden/planting its the Renegade CE. A most useful 4 inch blade.

Fishing (at the cleaning station) has seen mostly the C48 Wegner CE. Gets thru the backbone/tailbone with least fuss.

Filleting at home I use the Catcherman SE to saw thru in 3-4 inch sections. Unfortunately at this point I resort to non-Spyderco blades (Gerber Coho and Lakota Fish Hawk) to fillet these cross-sections of salmon into steaks for the barbeque or thinner portions appropriate for the smoker. I am still waiting for the Spyderco fillet blades that were in the works some time ago.

Going to town or on vacation, lately I have been carrying the Commemorative(sp) Worker or the gray Calypso Jr.

The micarta Jester stays on my keychain so it is prolly my most carried.

Military SE gets the most pocket time lately, followed by the PacificSE or Endura FRN SE.

I carry my military with me everywhere, except fishing. I carried my delica near water until I lost it when I was rafting. Now I have a replacement endura on the way. I'm thinking of getting a stainless cricket as my "I don't want to scare anyone knife".

I can stand losing $35 to the water, but I can stand losing the mili....

My EDC is always composed of a medium/big Spyderco and a Cricket!
I rotate between the CF, SS and Almite models of the great C29...

So I wonder if your everyday carry will change once a certain forum knife comes available. :cool:
