Here's my Case XX. I carry this thing with me everywhere I go because I always need it and it never lets me down. It has a nice aged CV blade, too, I like the old look it has to it:

You can tell what electrical work/being lost under a truck seat for months can do for a knife! Here it is from the other side:

I've had this knife about 4 years now, BTW. So she definitely isn't new.
 
same with me : my mini grip always is where I am except when taking a shower :thumbsup:

I've got it for 1 1/2 years now but the picture I took about 1 year ago

Great thread here.
Guys - I thought it was just us in the UK that carried slip joints!

Here we go then-

UKPK with carbonfibre scales

A one of a kind Ti SAK made by a very nice chap over on the Britishblades forum. My one and only Ti knife..

As much as I love the UKPK, it's a bit big for EDC in a urban area in the UK. So I've been using the Ti SAK most of the time.

I got a couple of new/old slipjoints to EDC this week, I'll upload some picks tomorrow....................
 
I am trying to work in strider trainer which got sharpened..i would carry it more if i had different scales, mabey some micarta..the texture of it now is too rough to pocket carry, can not easily re clip it to my pocket because of the texture.

How is the edge holding up? I've always heard that the heat treatment on the trainers was'nt quite up to par since it was never meant to be sharpened.
 
i believe its heat treated in the same manner, i have not used it much as i want to have scales made for it
 
Lately it's been a plain ol Strider PT but I love it & I don't feel like I would ever have to worry about using it.

But I still rotate it with my CA legal UTX-70 which is my first EDC knife (obviously not a folder)

The Hinderer, with Krein regrind, changes color, but it's always an edc. The Mini Manix is new to me, as of a week or so, from a good friend. I like it a lot.

The old knife was given to me by my friend at work. He collects old knives and was having a clear out.

He said he thought I should have something "old" to go with my "modern" knives. It's a really nice shape, smooth and light. A very nice gift.
