What's your current EDC?

February 09, 2009 22:14

I know this topic has been discussed before, but your EDC could have changed since then. I also enjoy seeing what models people are giving pocket time to...

I don't have a lot of Benchmades, but there were certain models that I neglected because I was too scared to carry them in the event that anything would happen to them and they could not be replaced, or I was just enjoying carrying what I had in my pocket so much that I didn't want to rotate it to anything else. I just decided that there is no point in me having the Benchmades that I do unless I carry them. Now, my 710SBKD2 is set as my work knife, but the others are about to see the day of light as my free time carries...

The first Benchmade that I decided to carry in my attempted weekly rotation is my 730 Ares KOTM November 2000.

So what are you carrying right now?

EDITED DUE TO THE HORRIBLE GRAMMER. I APOLOGIZE FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ATTEMPTED TO DECIPHER MY FIRST POST.

Here's my work carry. My 710SBKD2 is no where near the status that Jon's 710 is, but I hope to get it there some day...

My current EDC is a 555HG Grip,
that is until my 527 and 585 get here.

The 527 is enroute, shipped out today.

I have the 960SLV and I love it. The model is so slim and light, I can't even tell it's in my pocket when I carry it. That one came scary sharp from Benchmade when I bought it too.

Mine's not (official)BM but I just got both the HD Hardtail and mini Hardtail in the satin finish,combo edge for both.

HINT TO BM:NOW APPLY THIS MFG TECHNIQUE(ALUM W/G-10 molded in)to the 551 & 556 GRIPS!....THAT's about as close to MY "Holy Grail" for knife design as they could make...double bolstered,G-10,FULL backspine Grips!(aside from offering custom scales like stag,jigged bone etc)!Come on BM...this overall design would be AWSOME IMHO applied to the Grips!(HEY....I gotta try right?

**EDITED to add:I'd LOVE to see a entire line made like the hardtail(s),IMHO a 710 or 705 like this would be pretty cool(maybe introduce a 711?(710 w/707 blade style)made like the hardtail? I'd LOVE a 707 with scale/liner thickness to match the 705,but done with double bolsters!

that's a good idea. i have bought some used that ranged between 6 months old and 6 years old. they still felt high quality, but you could tell that they were used hard.

My EDC folder is my AFCK 806 D2. I know it's discontinued, but I highly doubt I'll ever "wear" this one out or anything. I'm somewhat careful with it though, and don't pry things with it. For outdoors or home, I carry my Al Mar SERE Operator fixed blade IWB at appendix.

Yeah, Chang! Add a 14205 to the rotation and you'll have all you need.

BTW, I've been edc-ing a 520 the past two weeks.
