    Its a tiny slim folder with a blade all of about in inch long in the shape of a key. It was my grandfathers so as much a keepsake as a tool.

    You did forget butterfly knives though, unless you'd consider them a tac folder.

    after 5 stitches across my fingertips, I'm always happy to exclude butterfly knives going forward.

    not really, I just assumed most people wouldn't be carrying them since they are illegal in many jurisdictions and not very practical everywhere :-) I do occasionally carry a Spyderco Spyderfly, but only when I want to impress people, it's actually a pain in the ass to use on a daily basis.

    I always have my Gerber Clutch mini-multi-tool on my keyring, and I almost always have my automatic MOD Ladyhawk on me. Here's a link to it: http://www.arizonagunrunners.com/Pro.../ladyhawk.html

    Today I have my Buck Crosslock (one smooth blade and one serrated on opposite sides.) This is my "outdoor" knife. Most days I carry an Opinel wooden handled knife for rope work or woodcarving. This is a single blade locker that is wonderful to use.

    My setup exactly for more sensitive outings (except I use the Juice S2 now).

    Otherwise, I swap the Mnandi for my Sebenza. My Leatherman Squirt and Juice ride in my gear bag or briefcase.

    I always have a Leatherman, as well as an (original U.S made) Old Timer Stockman (3 blade). I use the leatherman for it's tools mostly, and the Old Timer is my go to knife for whip making. I have plenty of knives to choose from though, I collect/make them as a hobby.
