    Everyday carry knife is a Spyderco Delica 4 with the foliage green G-10 scales. It replaced a Benchmade Mini-Stryker that I seem to have lost.

    I carry a Busse Steelheart E in my car, mostly for prying and gaining entry to homes and such (Yes, there are better tools for that).

    I also carry a KaBar TDI LTK on my duty belt behind my magazine pouches.

    I carry a variety of knives depending on what Im doing at the time. I carry a small Blackhawk fixed blade behind my mag pouches on my duty belt. I think the blade is only 3 inches. But I use a fixed blade as Im a dog handler, and when I need it to cut twine, rope or whatever securing fences or other barricades i usually have the dog lead in my left hand. It works out great.

    I also carry a Benchmade 520. Fantastic knife, however the aluminum grip will shred pockets. I have a Emerson CQC-10 in my shorts right now. Love everything about the Emerson. I have a couple. Just not a fan of the liner locks.

    Even though Im not a fan of the liner lock, my dream knife is a Sebenza large. I just havent found the perfect one. :D

    The Sebenza is technically a frame lock. It's significantly stronger and less likely to slip than most liner locks.

    D'OH! Pedantry alert!

    I always have one, and it is usually this one. It's big, heavy, and unfortunately made in Taiwan. But it works, and works well! It's a CRKT M21-14 Carson design with the aluminum scales. I've carried it for about two years now, it's held up very well to my abusive ways.

    I have the same knife with plain edge. It was one of my carry knives for years, but it's been retired. It's an excellent tool!

    Kit Carson is one of my favorite folder designers. When CRKT did a version of his Model 4, I had to have one (in my pocket right now). I just wish they'd do a version of the same knife with a 4-in blade.
