Knife thread is cool. I carry in our coach a Buck Hoodlum survival knife that was signed (engraved) by Chuck Buck at the recent NRA show in Houston. It is just in case we end up in a Zombie campground or something like that.

My wallet, my keys, and my Schrade Old Timer go with me everywhere. This one is just a 2 in blade but does everything I would normally need "on the spot". If I need something bigger I have a Kershaw 6 inch sheath in the tool box.
I have carried one for so long it's become sort of a family joke of sorts. When all the family is together if some one needs something cut its "go ask grampa for his knife"

All but the cycle one are old, but I could shave with all of them.

Always with me: TRIM. Nail file/cleaner, knife, bottle opener/screwdriver. It's says BASSETT 81. Small, light and can do many things and can keep an edge. Haven't been without one since 1966 when I joined the Army. Probably have 5 laying around here... someplace.

I carry a small pocket knife that my Granddad gave me years and years ago. When I'm fly fishing, I also carry a Leatherman on my belt because of the pliers.

I have probably 6 or 8 multi tools and 3 Swiss Army knives around that I've accumulated over the years. Also two really good quality Leatherman pieces I've received as gifts. I keep those two handy. I have a Case 323 5-inch that I used to carry always in a previous life, and a Buck 315 rigging knife that my father in law gave me. He used it on his boat, I used it on mine, and I keep it around because its a damn handy little thing.

But the two that I carry are a tiny little no-name pocket trim knife (1-1/2" & 1") that was my Dad's, and a Camillus 3" pocket knife I've had for damn near 60 years. These are always in my pockets. Rule #9.

All sharp, of course. The most dangerous knife is a dull one.

Without exception, I carry a Gerber EAB. I just reverse or change out the blade when it gets dull. I ALWAYS have a razor sharp blade when I need it......and sometimes when I don't. Of course I've required a stitch or two every now and then, but when the DW works in surgery her skills have come in handy.

A Mini-Boxcutter on the key chain. It is always there when I need to attack those tough plastic wrapped packages.
