well, let's see ....
Two is a minimum : - a Leatherman Juice C4 is in my EDC pouch, on my belt ; - an Emerson mini-CQC7 in my rear right pant's pocket ;
Then ... - when travelling (by car mainly) or going into town at night, I like to have a Fred Perrin's "griffe" (claw) around my neck, as a concealed backup - when a picnic (or an office party, where slicing salami is my job) is planned, I add a nice looking - and nice cutting - Le Thiers knife (folder, 3.5 inches blade) in its leather sheath, at my belt, right side. - concealed in the car, within hand reach, a Laci Szabo Kerambit is supposed to be usefull as a "rescue knife" ... - when backpacking, either a fixed blade (custom knife - it has to see the outdoors sometimes) in its sheath is hanging from my belt or an Emerson Commander is in my right front pocket. This being in addition to the Outdoor Wedge II, strapped to the left shoulder strap of the rucksack. The Le Thiers knife, useful for sausage slicing, is then inside the rucksack, with the "food module".
I recently removed a Spiderco knife card from my wallet (too heavy - too easily forgotten when travelling by plane, a PITA to remove it in front of the security staff, at the airport ...)
I guess that's it .....

My name is Ray and i have a pocket knife problem, oop's wrong board. My EDC is a supertool, a micra, and a spiderco delica. For the last few days i have replaced the delica with a superknife, www.superknife.com I managed, after many years of trying, to snap a quarter of an inch off the end of the delica a couple of weeks ago. You know the old saying "if you are going to be stupid, you have to be tough". Which is probably why i don't usually carry a more expensive knife on a daily basis.

A Sebenza clipped to front pants pocket (small at work, large on the weekends), and a small Wenger SAK (better scissors than the Victorinox) in watch pocket in jeans, back pocket otherwise. (This also has white Photon II attached.)

May I ask how you clip it to your front pants pocket? Every time I've clipped either my Spyderco Cricket or Dragonfly to any pants pocket, they wind up falling off/out by the end of the day.

Is your folder clipped to a back pocket or front pocket?

On the Web everyone is faceless and ageless. I remember being 17 myself, but since I'm 42, Holy Cow, you could be my son.
When I was in high school, no one cared if you carried a pocketknife. The authorities were worried only about switchblades! The worst thing you could do was be caught smoking (plain old cigarettes) in the rest rooms.
Times sure have changed, and not for the better.

That sounds like a cool job. I'd love to hear how someone would qualify for doing that. Mail me off-list, if you want, at cardimon720@yahoo.com and fill me in a little bit.
