Is that a knife in your pocket?

A knife bearer is what I fear when I leave gear in my Jeep while it is sitting at a trailhead and I am hiking (I have a soft top)

I'm always aware that my TJ is only as secure as the knife the bearer holds lolA knife bearer is what I fear when I leave gear in my Jeep while it is sitting at a trailhead and I am hiking (I have a soft top)
I have over 40 some victorinox and Wenger knives, 10 buck folding hunters, most of them vintage but new stock as well. Gerbers, kershaws, camillus etc. Sadly I usually never have one on me. I have a knife and flashlight obsession lol. Watches too!
My favorite was 2 Gerber knives which somehow lost both. So with a drawer full (not exaggerating) I fall back to my trusty all stainless Case that I can't seem to lose and carry every day.
I also have a couple of Buck folders, a Gerber, Smith and Wesson swat, three or four Leatherman's...

I always have a multitool and/or a SAK (Swiss Army Knife) on me, and usually carry a fixed blade when out wheeling.
I carry a Kershaw every day but have a number of folding and fixed blades at home. I keep a multi tool in all the vehicles.
I have a leatherman that I wear when wheeling.
I have an old buck knife my dad gave me as a kid--I stopped wearing it only because I dont want to lose it, I'll still pack it with on hunting trips but thats it.

I always keep my Gerber multipliers on me wherever I go, so much so that one time I was taking a shower and when the nozzle was leaking I instinctively reached for the pouch (that wasn’t there) on my hip.

My EDC is a Kershaw 1660. I'd like to get another that is 1 As thin 2 pocket clip 3 same size 4 not as pointy (no good for cleaning fingernails).
Recommendations?

I’ve been carrying the same Benchmade mini-griptillion nearly everyday for almost 15 years. When I don’t carry it clipped to my pocket I use the SAK.
BTW: The Benchmade’slifetime resharpening service is a fantastic benefit. I use it every 18 months or so to have them reshape the bevel. I do sharpen the knife but after awhile I like getting back to the original grind.

Almost forgot. I do use the Kershaw from time to time if I don’t make time to sharpen the Benchmade.
The Leatherman goes with me every week when I do volunteer trail work at a local county park.
The Kershaw Blur is a really decent knife for the $ I paid. (About $30.00 a few years ago)

There's a common thought among hunters . . . . the bigger the hunting knife, the less field experience of the owner.
Some folks carry huge hunting knives . . . you could field dress a T-Rex with them.
Have an elderly Gerber 'Silver Knight' folder . . . . a veteran of many hunts, and an equally elderly Schrade 'Wolverine' fixed blade.
A drop-point is a good practical blade design for the smaller field knives. A 2.5" - 3.0" blade is perfect for dressing moose/elk.
It's good to see what other folks carry . . . .

I prefer the non-serrated.. but lost that a few years back. Broke my heart.. had that for years.
This one... daughter bought me. So its meaningful again.
