Hmm, my SIG P220 and a 1911 Colt that I had custom made for IPSC competition. The SIG is better for a carry piece though.

I grew up in the Philippines and had the priveledge tof training with a Kali master in my youth. I still have a stable of Balisong knives, each of which I carried in my waistband at one time or another during Marcos' martial law years (when carrying firearms was outlawed), including the famed "balisong beinte nuebe" (29), which stands for the 29cm total length when open. This was made by one of the craftsmen in the province of Batangas, the birthplace of the balisong knife, with water buffalo horn handles and metal hammered from leafsprings. The beinte nuebe is an outlawed length for carry, even in the Philippines. You had to be "let in" to a back room to buy one back then.
Nowadays, I carry a Benchmade AFKC, and a pair of sticks in the car.
