    Default I lost my every day carry

    So, I lost my favorite pal. My most useful pocket knife. A 2004 Tony Bose/WR Case collaberation. A muskrat about 4 inches closed, burnt stag scales, one turkish clip blade and one wharncliff blade. The steel was ATS 34 and the blades had half stops ( Boy do I love half stops ). Anyways, I can not seem to make up my mind as to which of my pocket knives I want to slip into my pocket as my next "best friend" and I am asking you to vote on your favorite. I am not even certain that I will pay any mind to your votes but I will never the less appreciate your input.
    So, I have narrowed it down to 7 folders.

    The first folder is a Canal Street Cutlery Co muskrat with 2 turkish clip blades, amber stag bone scales, and the steel is 420HC. Total length closed is 4 inches.

    The second is a Bull Dog brand knife, a bullet knife with brown jigged bone. This one has half stops. The steel on this one is unknown but on the blade it says "English Steel". This knife was made in Solingen in 1985. only 35 were made.

    The third one is also a Bull Dog Brand Knife. A whittler. The scales are a yellow or tan if you prefer, smooth bone. the steel in this knife is also unknown but the blade says " Oil Hardened". This one is also a rare blade as it was made in the USA. Bull Dog only made knives in the USA for one year, 1995. After that they went back to producing their knives in Germany.

    The fourth is a Moore Maker. Orange jigged bone scales. This is a typical stockman style knife except what would normally be a Sheeps Foot blade is replaced with a leather punch. The steel is 1095.

    The fifth is a WR Case Slim Line trapper made in 2000 with Autumn Bone Jigged scales. the two blades are Case Surgical Stainless.

    Sixth is another Canal Street Cutlery knife. This is a Gunstock Jack knife with Amber Stag Bone scales. The steel is 420HC. This also has half stops.

    The seventh is a Schrade Gunstock Trapper made the last year that Schrade was making knives in the USA. The scales are saw cut Delrin which is a type of extremely tough plastic. It only has one blade which is a locking blade via a liner lock. The steel is a high carbon steel but I do not know which type.
