    From recommendations here, I got an Opinel #8. I sanded the handle a bit to make it easier to get my fingers on the blade for opening. I am loving it as an edc. Razor sharp and cheap enough that there will be no heartbreak if it gets lost or broken.

    I love my Laguiole! I bought it to use everyday, not to look at. I don't really buy things to look at, I buy them because they are practical.

    Here are my two standard knives. Nothing special but they handle anything I need them for.

    The Opinel is a darn fine tool, and for the price it is near impossible to beat.

    My EDC is a Karambit by Coldsteel, worn as a neck knife
    Usualy along with a very long double edged boot knife
    Then brass knuckles for backup (its technicaly a belt buckle, so its legal)
    Im not yet old enough to carry a handgun :/ That comes next september
    In which case my EDC will be a Glock 27
