I need a new EDC. Help me pick!

The Kewshaw Leek is similar, a bit longer, with a thinner and more pointed blade. Just a different 'Onion'. I would break one of those off for certain as I use the Scallion for everything. Scraping, screwdriver, prying, de-burring, you name it.
Sturdy knives. Come in lots of colors as well.

I have two on me everyday,,,, the Kershaw Blur always stays to handle any job & the other is usually a Safe Queen just getting out for the day.

I also have two most days, one that I keep clipped to the top of my pocket...a little SOG Flash, and the other which I keep down in a pocket or jacket pocket in the winter, which is possibly illegal to carry where I live because it is a spring assisted opener, a Boker Kalasnikov. I had KAD way before I had RAD, and have a bunch of others that get carried depending on what I'm wearing, what I grabbed from the dresser and where I'm going.

My two newest folders are the kershaw blur and the boker kalashnikov 74. Like was stated above I don't know the carry laws that well so I don't usually carry the boker. It's cool tho.both came from blade hq. I've bought 4 or 5 times from them. I'm thinking my next folder will be a benchmade with s30v steel .I have two benchmade straight knives with s30v steel and I am a huge fan !

I love Blade HQ. For me it is the SRD for knives!

Look into zero tolerance folders. They are a sub company of Kershaw and are folders with an attitude and built like tanks. Recurve blades that I have on mine are nasty slashers with a good drop point for excellent penetration.

Also have a Hinderer folder made by ZT with a traditional drop point and plain edge and it's a wicked EDC weapon. I took it to a knife fighting class a couple of years ago where we did practice cuts on deer carcases as one of the instructors worked for a meat packer and it was the end of deer season. The knife would make 4" long and 5-6" deep snap cuts and would penetrate/cut bone like butter. Cutting the rib cage with a drop cut would fully penetrate and cut 4-5 ribs cleanly into. Testimony to Hinderer's quality and blade design.

It has held up to all the abuse and stays razor sharp. It's in my pocket as we speak. I can't recommend it highly enough.
