    It seems like most companies have a large and small version of their best selling folders....
    Benchmade Griptilian and Mini Griptilian
    Spyderco Endura and Delica
    SOG Flash II and Flash I
    etc, etc, etc

    Of the two sizes what do you usually grab for the day, and why? I'll go first.

    I own a Griptilian and Mini Griptilian, and I almost never pick up the Griptilian. It is too bulky and I just don't need that long of a blade for EDC (working in office and household chores)

    regular large griptilian. I don't see the point of smaller knives than 4" it's just awkward for me to use anything smaller than full size.

    Most of the tacticals I carry (but never use) have a blade in the 3 1/2 to 4 inch area. For actual use during the day I keep a smaller slipjoint like a peanut or small stockman in my pocket.

    emerson commander. Roughly 8 inches open, and around 4 closed. Larger than some, but I like the size.
    Just picked up a full size Grip as well. Love the size/feel of that so far.

    Benchmade mini tika ii.

    I own both full size models as well (the standard and the tanto) and they're just too big for anything i'd need to do with them.

    I do keep one full size in my ammo can tool box in my car, though, just in case.

    Had my ZT 0300 in my pocket every single day since I got it, but I must admit I am finally thinking about replacing it..... with a 0303:D.

    It's not the biggest, fanciest, or most expensive knife in the world but, it's plenty good for everyday carry and meets my needs. Best of all, if I mess it up, it's cheap enough to simply replace!
